Leki Cross Trail FX Superlite Compact Poles

A high-performance option for trail running or light thru-hiking, LEKI CrossTrail FX Superlite poles utilize carbon construction, have innovative fatigue-reducing grips, pack down small, and weigh in at just under 13 ounces per pair (100-120 cm length)!

Fast, light, and built for adventure—the Cross Trail FX Superlite Compact is the perfect companion for your next mountain workout. Designed for smaller hands, this ultra-light folding pole features the Cross Shark grip, combining the speed of the Shark system with the support of a hiking grip for optimal performance.

At just 180 g per pole and collapsing to 42 cm, it’s incredibly packable without compromising performance. The newly designed Cross Shark grip blends the speed of the Shark system with the support of a hiking grip, while the breathable mesh strap provides a secure, muscle-relieving fit. A foam grip extension offers extra hand positions for varied terrain. With a sleek unisex design and a slim 14/12 mm diameter, this pole is ready to power your next challenge.

The "foldable" design of the poles consists of a concealed inner cord that runs through all four carbon shaft sections. After each shaft section is aligned, a push button lock tensions and locks the poles securely in place. Simply pull on the aligned sections until you hear the confirming "click" that the sections are locked securely in place. When you are ready to collapse the poles, push in the lock button to disengage the lock and fold up your poles. This innovative design saves weight and reduces packed size.

The poles use low-profile carbide trail running tips. The carbide provides strength and grip while minimal baskets reduce the risk of the poles getting caught between rocks or tree roots on the trail.

LEKI's patented FX technology only adds to the longevity of these poles. The poles are constructed so that you can easily replace the two lowest sections within minutes. If one of those sections breaks or becomes damaged, a replacement section can be obtained without needing to buy a complete set of new poles.

RANGE OF USE

The product fulfils the primary purpose of a climbing aid. When moving quickly, there is a risk of the tip getting stuck between stones, soil or roots. Jamming the tip under tensile load on the handle increases the risk of breaking the shaft. Furthermore, we recommend its use in trail running exclusively on secured trails. The product should never be used in exposed terrain, i.e. in alpine and fall-prone mountain sports, on snow, ice or glaciers.
