2.0 out of 5 stars Meh, January 29, 2008

This review is from: XCD Pole - Pair by Karhu (Misc.)
The poles aren't bad. I prefer the cork grip to the typical hard plastic on most XC ski poles.

These are very lightweight and feel good during extended tours.

That said, I snapped one of them in half the fourth time I used it. I had the carbon version of the pole and they are obviously not as durable as the aluminum version that Karhu makes.

I also had a problem with baskets coming off the first time out with them. Thankfully, I was leading the group and someone behind me alerted me to the problem. I really just needed to twist them down as tight as I could and I never had a problem with the baskets again.

I've been forced to go to a cheap Swix model for the time being, but I hope to go with the aluminum version of this pole and pray for better durability.

This review is from: XCD Pole - Pair by Karhu (Misc.)
I have owned a set of these poles for a year. I do not like them because the cork grips are hard, small in diameter (and I have small hands) and they are slippery. The second time I used them one of the baskets came off. I had to stop skiing and put it back on but it continued to come off until it was lost. There are much better poles out there for the price.
