Description

  Highly versatile 4-season pole with accessory-ready grips; Whippet compatible

  The Alpine Carbon Cork WR (Whippet-Ready) is a highly versatile, fully-adjustable four-season pole that’s accessory ready. From alpine backpacking routes, mid-winter expeditions and far-flung treks, this trekking pole features Whippet Ready technology, allowing you to connect accessories, such as the Universal 1/4-20 Adapter, a Whippet, Alpine Whippet or the Distance UL Tent directly to the grip-top. Three 100% carbon fiber shafts offer quick and secure length changes thanks to FlickLock Pro adjustability—which features a streamlined, forged aluminum design that’s lighter and easier to use. The comfortable wicking cork grip has a redesigned soft touch ergonomic grip top for better comfort and offers security around the wrist when tackling steep terrain. A 38mm basket and interchangeable Tech Tips allow you to switch between carbide and rubber tips to account for changing trail surfaces.

  All accessories sold separately.
