The angled grip position relieves pressure on the wrist, while the textured surface provides a good grip even with sweaty hands. The breathable wrist strap is infinitely adjustable and supports precise pole guidance without pressure points.

Adjustment is made using the tried-and-tested Speed Lock plus system, which works reliably even in wet conditions or when wearing gloves. Equipped with a Flex Tip and the Trekking 2.0 basket, the poles offer a secure grip on changing surfaces - from rocky passages to soft forest ground. The Makalu Lite AS Compact from Leki are the perfect choice for anyone who wants to be comfortable, compact and easy on the joints in the mountains - with well thought-out technology and proven quality.
