Gabel Carbon Force FLK Telescopic poles for ski mountaineering and trekking, 66-142cm, Black

CARBON FORCE F.L.K. – The Gabel telescopic poles for ski mountaineering and trekking

Carbon Force F.L.K. are telescopic poles designed for ski mountaineering and trekking, recommended for mountain guides and experienced hikers. They feature an Ergo Lite grip and Foam Touring extension covering the upper part of the pole, creating multiple gripping points. This type of grip enables smoother navigation through uneven terrain and steep slopes, maximizing the potential of this model. The poles also incorporate the T.C.S. (Automatic Top Click System), allowing for easy adjustment or removal of the Tech Lite strap, which undergoes a special antibacterial treatment.

The design of the pole focuses on weight reduction without compromising strength. The three sections, with diameters ranging from 16 to 12 mm, are made with UltraLight optics. The chosen materials include Snake Carbon, a combination of carbon and a specific geometric shape through crystallization technology, and Kevlar, a synthetic aramid fiber with high resistance that covers the last section. The pole sections are telescoped and secured through innovative locking systems. Internally, the T.P.L. (Top Performance Locking) technology initiates locking through a dual friction point. Externally, the U-Lock Mono technology, using a lever system, secures the sections.

These innovations help minimize vibrations from impact with the terrain. The Carbon Force F.L.K. poles are complemented by the Carbide tip, providing excellent grip even on rocky terrain.
