5.0 out of 5 stars great nordic walking sticks!, December 2, 2007
hello,
These are awesome sticks. They have great interchangeable tips for pavement or inside or offroad. They came very quickly from the company. be sure and include your height when you order because they send the proper size based on your height. I love these. They cannot fall apart like the telescoping ones. makes my excersise fun!

This review is from: Real Nordic Walking Poles Are Safer, Lighter and More Durable Than Cheap/Flimsy Twist-Locking 2-Piece and 3-Piece Collapsible Poles. Free Nordic Walking DVD included. Made In Lillehammer, Norway (Misc.)
I decided to give the ski walking poles a try because I've been taking the same walk for almost 20 years and I didn't even break into a sweat after 2 miles. What a difference the poles make! Different muscles, more effort, lots of sweat. Great exercise and calorie burner.

This review is from: Real Nordic Walking Poles Are Safer, Lighter and More Durable Than Cheap/Flimsy Twist-Locking 2-Piece and 3-Piece Collapsible Poles. Free Nordic Walking DVD included. Made In Lillehammer, Norway (Misc.)
Nordic walking was recommended by another website as an addition to a walking program [...] that I follow. What a great addition. I walk about 45 mins to 60 mins per day, and these sticks have really increased the cardio workout. They take about 30 mins to learn how to use them and then you are off. The Swix VIP Nordic poles are a one piece unit so I do not have to worry about them collapsing on me. The handles are marked left and right for people like me who find it hard to figure that out. They are a very high quality product. The vendor is great, I got an email within 24 hrs asking for my height so that they could ship the correct poles. Very impressed with vendor and product.
I strongly recommend this product. Enjoy it in great health!

I purchased these poles for my 75 year old mother. She was able to use them right away without having to follow any difficult instructions. Her 70ish walking partner saw them and had to have a pair, as well. My mom absolutely loves them. She says they help her stand taller and she really feels that she is exerting more energy when she is walking. I would recommend these poles to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars nordic walking poles, sticks, May 5, 2009
This review is from: Real Nordic Walking Poles Are Safer, Lighter and More Durable Than Cheap/Flimsy Twist-Locking 2-Piece and 3-Piece Collapsible Poles. Free Nordic Walking DVD included. Made In Lillehammer, Norway (Misc.)
"Swix VIP Nordic Walking Poles & Free Nordic Walking DVD" Safer, lighter, and more durable than cheap twist-lock adjustable poles from China!
I was injured in an auto accident almost two years ago, i suffered a disability to my arm and shoulder. these amazing sticks are helping me to learn to use my arm again. by having to extend my arm to use the sticks they are actually helping me a number of ways.
by strengthening my upper arm and shoulder girth, making me use my arm and shoulder that are still a bit locked down, teaching me to extend my arm as i walk instead of it just hanging at my side lifeless, providing balance and stability for me, and giving something to concentrate on as i walk while i establish a rhythm.
I would highly recommend these sticks to anyone that needs or wants a little help accomplishing a goal of normal walking habits.
Thank you guys for a great product and fantastic customer support!!!
five star all the way!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love my walking poles!, November 5, 2009

This review is from: Real Nordic Walking Poles Are Safer, Lighter and More Durable Than Cheap/Flimsy Twist-Locking 2-Piece and 3-Piece Collapsible Poles. Free Nordic Walking DVD included. Made In Lillehammer, Norway (Misc.)
I was just trying to enhance a boring walking routine by adding some extra intensity to my walk. What I wasn't expecting was the immediate improvement in muscle tone of my upper arms, back and core. The swix walking poles are wonderful and the quality is fantastic. I don't believe the twist-lock adjustable poles would stand up to much of a walking routine.

This review is from: Real Nordic Walking Poles Are Safer, Lighter and More Durable Than Cheap/Flimsy Twist-Locking 2-Piece and 3-Piece Collapsible Poles. Free Nordic Walking DVD included. Made In Lillehammer, Norway (Misc.)
I LOVE these poles! I have severe osteoarthritis in my knees, and they're somewhat unstable. Using the poles means that I can walk a couple of miles every day and not have the pain during the walk, and my knees are not blowing up after the walk, either. BE SURE when you order to go to the comapny's website and send them an email letting them know your height, so they can send you the correct size poles. Their customer service is outstanding, and the poles were delivered quickly. Highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy well made product, November 7, 2009

This review is from: Real Nordic Walking Poles Are Safer, Lighter and More Durable Than Cheap/Flimsy Twist-Locking 2-Piece and 3-Piece Collapsible Poles. Free Nordic Walking DVD included. Made In Lillehammer, Norway (Misc.)
The SWIX VIP Nordic Walking Poles was very sturdy and well made! I'm still trying to figure out how to use correctly as the video included brushed past the basics into advanced techniques. U-Tube provided more practical guides for correct usage. I look forward to getting the hang of it and using on a more regular basis. I've taken them out several times now and can feel the engagement of my back and arm muscles which is great! The SWIX VIP Nordic Walking Poles arrived more quickly than expected which was a nice surprise.
