Fizan says:
Weighing in at a remarkable 158g, the Fizan Compact Pole is the world’s lightest alloy, three-section trekking pole. But, because it’s made from a high-grade 7001 aluminium alloy, it’s also extremely strong and durable.
The three sections collapse down to just 59cm and extend to 132cm so it’s easily adjustable for different heights and types of terrain. When not in use, the compact dimensions sit comfortably on your rucksack and thanks to its light weight, it won’t weigh you down.
The patented Flexy locking system is quick and simple to adjust. It’s also considerably lighter than bulky, external ‘clamp’ systems.
The grip is ergonomically shaped and made from a comfortable EVA with a soft neoprene strap. The strap is easy to adjust on the hoof – and can be accurately fine-tuned to account for gloves or thick winter mitts.
The pole comes complete with a 50mm basket to stop the pole sinking into soft ground. The durable carbide tip may be covered with a rubber bung for walking on tarmac or to protect your gear when the poles are in transit.
