"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I was blown away by how light and efficient these poles felt during a ridge-line scramble trail race. The Trail Shark grip system lets me snap in and out without missing a step, and the carbon construction feels insanely responsive without tiring my arms out.""When the trail gets technical and the pace pushes redline, we count on the Ultratrail FX 1 Superlite Trekking Poles to keep us efficient and moving forward. Built by LEKI, these featherweight poles are fine-tuned for trail running performance with a collapsible carbon shaft that packs down in seconds and slips easily into a running vest or belt. At the core of their innovation is the Trail Shark grip system—a 100% trail-running-specific interface that allows seamless on-the-fly attachment and release. Paired with the Shark Frame Mesh Strap, it fits like a glove and ensures direct energy transfer to the pole. A concave carbide tip delivers reliable grip across varied terrain, while the Push Button system snaps the poles together quickly and securely. At just 4. 8 ounces, these poles offer high performance without compromise—designed for race day, trusted for every step."
