Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Haven't had the chance to use them yet, but they look well made. A little heavy compare to my snowshoeing poles by Komperdell. Komperdell is a good product, and U can't beat the price.
Not for extreme conditions, loads
By QRunner from Wakefield MA on 5/12/2008
Pros:
Good grips, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Backpacking, Hiking
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
What Is Your Gear Style:
Minimalist
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: If you are over six foot and over 220lbs with-without a pack, I would not rely on these poles for difficult winter terrain. The mid-section is not strong enough for large loads especially on descents in corn snow. At the least, buy two pair and take a spare mid-section with you for pack hikes. Also, Komperdell site does not have "parts" solutions, and likely should. I recommend only on the basis of moderate conditions and loads.
Great poles, but not as pictured.

Pros:
Easy to adjust, Good grips, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Backpacking, Hiking
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
What Is Your Gear Style:
Comfort Driven
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought these poles as a gift for my girlfriend. I trust the brand, and I liked the look of the cork grips with the white shafts. The ones I received are dark gray. I tought I'd been shipped the wrong item and would have to return it, but all the other features are there, just dark gray instead of white as pictured. She's happy with the poles, but we haven't taken them outdoors yet.
