Embark on every trail with confidence, comfort, and superior performance. The Peak XV Cork & Carbon Hiking Poles in Antishock edition offer the perfect balance of lightweight agility, premium ergonomics, and advanced shock-absorbing technology. Crafted from 100% carbon fibre, they deliver robust support without weighing you down—even better, they now feature a spring-loaded antishock system to soften impact and ease stress on knees and joints during long hikes.
The ergonomic cork handles provide a sweat-wicking, blister-resistant grip that remains comfortable mile after mile. The Cam-Lock mechanism allows seamless length adjustment—from 63 cm to 135 cm—so you can customise for uphill climbs, downhill descents, or level terrain. When your adventure pauses, these poles collapse to a compact 52.8 cm, ideal for stashing in your carry bag or backpack.
At just 236 g per pole, this updated antishock version remains featherlight yet rugged, perfect for extensive treks. They come fully equipped with high-traction tungsten carbide tips, paired with rubber tips, mud baskets and snow baskets—ready for any terrain or condition.

Strong, easy assembly and very comfortable to use
New poles very lite and strong
Easy to carry when not in use.
Used these on a recent day trip up to and down from the Pinnacles - had to share one with a friend who was jealous! It was good to be able to adjust the length easily. We were both very thankful for the poles! Light enough to strap to a daypack if necessary, but we pretty much used them the whole time (except scrambling to the peak). Looking forward to next hike using both poles ;-)
Excellent product and was well priced
Exactly as described: good quality, light and reliable. Easy to adjust the length on the go. Will be buying second pair for my son.
