People think hiking pole/trekking pole use
is intuitive – It’s Not!
Most people use poles non-optimally. This can cause shoulder
trouble, hand and wrist fatigue, and less than optimum benefit from the
poles (see benefits page). The amount of mis-use we see was the inspiration for creating this video - now you can learn how to optimize your performance on the trail. The Video: - describes the benefits of hiking with poles, - demystifies the pole buying process, - describes (in detail) techniques for hiking on varying terrain, - shows how to use the strap and adjust your base-line length, - shows how to care for and clean, how to take apart for traveling, - discusses accessories like baskets and rubber tips, - includes hiking, posture and safety tips. - is endorsed by both LEKI USA and Outdoor Research The DVD does all that PLUS shows how to learn the techniques! The DVD is menu-driven and about double the education of the video - 1 hour, 13 minutes. |
