Hi. I have one question, if anyone can help. I have Ferrino Ultar trekking poles. They're quite ok, only can't get spare baskets anywhere. The ones on them are all cracked, can't find new ones to replace in any store. Leki and Mckinley don't fit. Does anyone know where to get spares? Thanks

What if you looked by sizes, not by manufacturer?

Throw the brand away and buy Kohls, which are eternal, Tehnomat Kranj or Fizan cheaper, equally good.
If the company doesn't provide spare parts, then no development behind it but usually stuff comes from the east, "company" just sticks its label on.
True sizes of baskets won't be available, because each manufacturer makes its own to protect its prototype.

"Eternal", replaceable, renewable you see on previous page.

I popped into Igla, thought they used to have them. No more spare parts, but lady kindly said bring the poles and they'll find suitable baskets. Worth trying.

I tried at ours, but they don't go on. I'll go without till I buy new ones, when replacing I'll take some where I can get spare parts. Thanks for answers.

At least it doesn't get stuck between roots and rocks.

Hiking poles
Most hikers today carry poles in hands to mountains. But really only about 10% use them. With pole need to push off with pressure from 5 kg on. Also pole placed far ahead doesn't serve purpose (doesn't allow push). Pole must have vidio (Cr. Mo. alloy) tip. Baskets smaller in summer, larger in winter. After many years (17) use notice legs have gone lazy. As with pole help they laze a bit. Also on descent no such balance in legs.

I'm interested in which hiking poles you recommend in the price range up to 30 €? So far I have always had McKinley, but it bothers me because the lower (metal) part that prevents the pole from slipping breaks very quickly. Thanks for the help.

With poles, the price is directly proportional to quality.

I bought McKinley poles but I'm not satisfied with the "strap closing". Any other similar ones for 20eur? I'm not demanding, preferably aluminum and with shock absorber.

For 20 eur you won't be satisfied

With these McKinley ones I'm satisfied, but only the strap closing bothers me, everything else is tip top.

Hello,
I'm interested in what experiences slightly taller hikers have with poles. A few weeks ago I tried Black Diamond poles in the store and found that the correct pole length for me is 130cm or a couple cm more, which means that on descent I'd have to extend the pole to the maximum. So I'm wondering if that incidentally means the pole will twist much more and maybe it would be better to buy longer poles? Are e.g. Krpan poles from Tehnomat a sensible alternative or do they not pay off due to weight and length?
Thanks for the help.
