Great minds and all that ;D
Hi folks
I bought a pair of those carbon poles last night. Im not into Nordic walking but I'm thinking of converting then into ski touring poles. They are not telescopic, that fitting in the middle is just an acessory clip. For those that are interested in such things, a 120cm pole weighs 184g with all its acessories and just 142g stripped down. I thought that was pretty light since my old fibreglass ski poles weigh 223g each.
