Description

The clever bit on this pole is where Komperdell stopped using carbon. The top two sections are carbon for lightness and stiffness; the bottom section - the one that gets wedged in rock cracks and dragged over scree - is Titanal.HF alloy.

Carbon where it helps, alloy where it takes the hits

The lower section of a trekking pole leads a hard life. It goes into gaps between rocks, gets levered when you misjudge a step, and takes the scrapes. Putting a high-strength alloy there and keeping carbon up top gives you most of the weight saving with a lot more peace of mind on rough ground.

A short, tuckable band

90 to 120 cm suits shorter walkers and steep terrain, and packs to 57 cm so the poles ride neatly on a daypack rather than waving above your shoulders.

Trek Pro 280 foam grip

Light, soft foam with an extended grip zone running down the shaft, so on a sharp climb you slide your hand down instead of stopping to re-set the clamps.

Weight

402 g the pair (201 g per pole).

FAQ's

How much do they weigh - is that per pole or the pair?
402 g for the pair, and 201 g per pole if you are matching against a spec sheet.

Why is the bottom section not carbon?
Because that is the section that gets jammed into rock and levered on. Titanal.HF alloy there takes the abuse; carbon up top keeps the weight and the swing feel down. It is the best of both in the places each material is best.

What length range?
90 cm to 120 cm, which suits shorter walkers and steep ground.

How does it compare to the Carbon Ultra Zero Compact?
Same band and same packed size. The Ultra Zero Compact is all carbon and lighter; the Pro Zero Compact trades a little of that for an alloy lower section that shrugs off rocky terrain. Pick on where you walk.

How small does it pack?
57 cm collapsed, which sits on a daypack without towering over your shoulders.
