Compact FL Foam

The upper segment of Pinguin Compact FL Foam folding poles has an extended handle made of non-absorbent, non-slip and vibration-absorbing EVA foam. The length of the handles is what defines the poles as four-season, thanks to the ability to change grip position when traversing, while maintaining a comfortable and secure grip. The adjustable wrist straps also ensure greater comfort and safety when using the poles.

Highly packable poles thanks to the principle of folding segments. The poles can be folded down to just 36 cm, so they even fit into the Move 8, our smallest backpack.

The poles come with a pair of trekking and pair of snow baskets.

Assembly

Since we sometimes encounter customers who are not sure how to assemble the poles correctly, we have made a video for you.

Material

The individual segments of these telescopic poles are made of high-strength 7075 aluminium alloy with a larger diameters for greater rigidity; they are connected with Kevlar cord in a protective sleeve. The pole segments are color anodized. This surface treatment makes the aluminium resistant to mechanical wear and gives it greater weather resistance. The tips are made of durable tungsten carbide and rubber tip caps are included to eliminate vibration and unwanted noise on hard surfaces.

Fast Lock

The overall length of the poles can be easily, quickly and safely adjusted to 110 - 130 cm by using the Fast Lock locks with a duralumin lever located on the upper segment of the poles. The graduated markings on the upper telescopic segment of the poles also make them easy to adjust.
