I bought the black ovis crestone trekking poles, they're junk. The handle is foam colored to look like cork. The epoxy failed on the couplers and they literally fell apart. I had 2 sets because I ordered 2 on accident. And have had 1 pole from both sets break. Buy once cry once get the peax.
Absolutely love this topic, great presentation guys! 👏👏
Thanks for the reviews. Always appreciate the deep dive.
I got the Cascade Trekking Poles from Costco and their great and yes their perfect for being on a budget.
❤❤❤
Can yall drop the links or names of the poles in order of favorability? Great information and good content 😊
Just get these www.peaxequipment.com/products/sissy-stix-backcountry-elite-cork you will thank us later😊
Best budget poles are Paria outdoor
Z pole, cork handles, and carbon for $60
Do you have experience on these? I'm thinking of getting these based on your suggestion.
Why Peax Elite over Z's if you like the Z's?
We haven't had a chance get our hands on them yet. I am not sure on the peaks ones but some of the other z polls won't work in the peax teepee.
@@ELKSHAPEGEAR Is there a durability difference between z poles and non z poles?
Whats a z pole?
it collapses like a z rather than a telescope. they end up with a shorter profile so they are easier to store inside your pack.
