Rhyolite 6061 trekking poles
I used these poles on my last backpacking trip last week. I must say for the price I wasnt expecting much. But I was very surprised, they are well made, have very comfortable grips, easy to adjust and stay put to your desired lengths, and the shock absorbing was very nice too. All and all super product at a super low price I would highly recommend to anyone that wants great poles at a low price.

Great Value
The handle is comfortable, and they adjust easily. They are sturdy, and appear well made. They are slightly heavier than more expensive poles.

love our poles
We love our trekking poles and use them all the time. The only problem is that we have lost our rubber tips to the poles and cannot find any to replace them.
