Pole Length – Adjustable from 90cm – 125cm Note: The length of the pole is determined by a number of factors, not just height. As you become more familiar with using the poles and your technique improves, so does your stride length. The pole adjustment allows the poles to grow with you.
If you are taller than 5’11”, you may need longer poles. Contact the Team and we can advise on the choice of either the WALX Xplorer or TBW Carbon Pro poles. Both models can accommodate taller users and we are happy to upgrade the poles accordingly
