Salomon Escape Alu Junior Poles - Kids' One Color, 80cm

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I’ve recommended these to a lot of first-timers and young skiers. They’re lightweight, super durable, and have a comfortable foam grip that’s easy to hang onto. The biathlon-style strap is great for quick in-and-out use, which makes gearing up a lot less stressful for beginners.""We’re all about keeping the stoke high when introducing someone to cross-country skiing, and the Salomon Escape Alu Junior Poles are designed to do exactly that. Crafted with a stiff, lightweight aluminum shaft and a comfortable EVA foam grip, they offer a secure, easy-to-handle feel that helps new skiers build confidence from the first glide. The biathlon-style strap is simple to use and quick to take off—great for rest breaks or adjusting layers on the trail. Built with recycled materials in both the strap and grip, these poles are also a smart pick for those looking to reduce their environmental impact. Whether it’s classic laps around the park or learning the rhythm of skate skiing, the Escape Alu Junior makes it all feel a little more natural."
