Mid-priced shock-absorbing trekker.
Incorporating Black Diamond's cutting-edge, patent-pending Control Shock Technology, the Trail Shock's progressive, four-stage shock absorbs light strikes and heavy hits without pogo-rebounding or bottoming out. Crafted with a traditional round shape, the Trail Shock is ninja-in-the-night quiet and, thanks to its dual FlickLocks, as secure and solid as Fort Knox. All-day comfort is maximized with its dual-density grip, 360-padded strap and foam extension on the shaft for when the going gets steep. The Trail Shock comes equipped with a Long Flex Tip and low-profile trekking basket.

Great Poles For Hiking
Used these poles for dirt andd rock hiking in Hawaii. They seem a little flimsy because of their weight. But they worked really well. Going down the slopes you could feel the shock absorption. Going up hill they aided in taking some of the work load off your legs. I recommend these poles at least for moderate climbing hiking.
