TrailBuddy Hiking Sticks – 2-pc Pack Adjustable Walking or Trekking Poles – Strong, Lightweight Aluminum 7075 – Quick Adjust Flip-lock – Cork Grip, Padded Strap – (Purple Plum)
TrailBuddy Trekking Poles (TM) offer the best combination of durable strength and lightweight portability in a complete set designed for the trekker’s comfort and ease of use.
Why use trekking poles?
1. Reduce impact of trekking or walking on knees, back, and hips
2. Increase speed, balance, and security
3. Get more traction and points of contact, crucial on muddy or steep terrains
4. Great walking aid if recovering from injury or have balance issues
5. Other uses:
– Can deflect shrubbery or act as probe for puddles, quicksand, etc
– Defense vs bears, other wildlife
– Can double as tent poles
Additional advantages of Aluminum 7075
While carbon fiber is lighter than aluminum, it does not perform very well under lateral pressure – common issues include snapping especially when it gets stuck on rocky terrain. Aluminum will not snap. It might bend under extreme pressure, but you can more likely bend it back and continue using it.
Additional advantages of Lever Lock
Aside from easy lengthening or shortening, poles with flip-locks can also be disassembled or reassembled easily. This is helpful if packing the trekking poles in a suitcase and shaving an inch or two off the assembled length is needed. With twist locks, it can be almost impossible to do this without breaking the poles.
Satisfaction Guarantee
TrailBuddy stands behind the quality of the product. We offer a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects.

Love these poles! I have had 2 knee replacements and back surgery, I have wanted to start a walking program but still had some pain issues especially with my lower back.

Working with the sticks – Most Satisfied with their service! We are still trying to work the kinks out of our walking with sticks. We live on flat ground, near the ocean, and have plans to do numerous trips to different parts of the ‘AT’. All of our walking friends have told us to get ‘sticks’ to make it easier. There is more than enough info included to get you started as far as adjustment goes. We need some hills to use them to the fullest potential. We ordered two sets and one set had two blue sticks the other set has one green and one yellow…
