[WTB] Trekking poles

Postby rowdy » Sun 07 Apr, 2019 1:59 pm

Hi all
I’m interested to try trekking poles for the first time but didn’t want to buy a cheap pair from Anaconda that I would only upgrade and throw away later but also don’t want to spend $200 on my first pair. So does anyone have some quality poles they don’t need anymore?
I’m 6’5” tall so I think I need ones that extend between 130 and 140cm.
Thanks

I would find a pair of good sticks from the bush and do some padding for a comfortable hand grip. Some grass trees have perfect straight, sturdy and lightweight sticks.

I have some black diamond flick lock Z poles that I think are adjustable to the at length.
PM me if you’re interested... I’ll flick you some photos
