Paria Outdoor Products Tri-Fold Carbon Cork Trekking Poles / Walking Sticks - Folding, Collapsible, Adjustable, Ultralight - Perfect for Hiking, Backpacking, Trail Running and Snowshoeing / Nordic Walking

Ok, this is going to be an unbiased review on these trekking sticks. I am climbing mount kilimanjaro in Tanzania in September and have never really liked it used stick before but it seems almost mandatory for this mountain. I wanted a pair of light and small easily stashed away sticks. These seemed to fit the bill perfectly. They arrived well wrapped and out of the box seemed easily to use. I have been using them for all my training I including an overnight summit of snowdon. They have performed admirably. I have experienced one issue with one of the sticks where the little popper that keeps them taunt and together in use failed to pop out regularly on one stick and would take alot of messing about with to put it together. I contacted the supplier who gave me advice on how to solve it l, but it remained a problem. On contacting them a second time a few months later they did not hesitate to send out a new pair of sticks which are performing perfectly. So in summary if you are after light and easily stashed sticks with reliable after sales service these are excellent and great value for money. I would say they are easily on a par with sticks that cost 3 times as much.

Absolutely brilliant!!!! My new cheating sticks! Just done the Yorkshire 3 peaks with them to try out, I didn’t wear gloves and they where very good to my hands.

The quality of this item is extremely poor. Part of the pole extension doesn’t appear to lock to anything, and the locking clip on one of the poles broke off within 24 hours of receiving the product - I haven’t even used them yet! Weak, shoddy workmanship - avoid.

Good compact poles that do the job.

Excellent. Would definitely buy another pair

Theoretically these poles tick all the boxes, light, compact,great for travel, stylish, reasonably easy to put together if you follow the instructions carefully. Unfortunately both poles - separately - came apart with the internal elastic unhooking from the handle section rendering them useless. I have had to return them.

Had them just over 12 months by 2 days and they have broke threaded wire has pulled out of fixing will not buy again will go for better quality

Very disappointed with these poles. Tension wire not connected to one handle making pole useless. returned to Amazon awaiting full refund,would not recommend this product.

Relación calidad precio excelente, los bastones son ligeros, se montan y se desmontan muy facilmente y rapido, usados en sendas técnicas en todos los terrenos y van muy bien, empuñadura y dragonera muy comoda...hay que tener cuidado al desplegar totalmente el baston porque no tiene tope y se sale, se vuelve a poner y sin problema, varios enganchones en rocas y barro y ninguna rotura, se doblan pero no parten....muy contento, espero que me duren mucho.

Good product for the price when I first bought it, unfortunately the price went up double!

These may not be the lightest poles, but for the price point, you get all the features that you need, cork handle, well built, portable, easy to assemble and sturdy.

He comprado los bastones atendiendo a sus características y a las buenas opiniones de los demás clientes.Tras mucho leer me decidí por los Bastones de Trekking de Fibra de Carbono Plegables de Paria. La impresión al montarlos ha sido muy buena,desprenden solidez y una sensación de ajuste perfectos.Plegados no ocupan nada por lo que se pueden guardar en un espacio muy reducido. La prueba con ellos ha sido dura y la han superado con creces,una subida a la Maroma de más de 2 mil metros de altitud y una pendiente considerable por un terreno muy irregular.Han aguantado perfectamente sin titubeos tanto la subida como la bajada sin dar las más mínima señal de debilidad. Si la durabilidad es la que deseo y espero,debo decir que son unos bastones formidables tanto por su peso,robustez,portabilidad y como no,por su precio.Se los recomiendo a todo el mundo que quiera unos bastones robustos,ligeros y altamente portables.

Ich bin Wanderstock-Neuling und oft auch lieber freihändig unterwegs. Für anspruchsvollere An-/Abstiege wollte ich aber Stöcke mal ausprobieren und habe mich deshalb für dieses Modell entschieden, da ich es ganz schön klein falten und seitlich am Rucksack befestigen kann, wenn ich die Stöcke gerade nicht benötige. Auf ersten Touren hat sich der Stock als sehr stabil erwiesen und die mitgelieferten unterschiedlichen Aufsätze geben bei unterschiedlichem Terrain sehr gut halt. Die Griffe sind zwar nicht aus echtem Kork, das rechne ich aber nicht negativ an, da sie super bequem sind und auch mit sehr schwitzigen Händen sehr guten Halt bieten. Alles in allem hat mich das Modell vollstens überzeugt und ich kann es absolut weiterempfehlen (wie gesagt: Sicht eines Laien)!
