TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
HOW TO ADJUST YOUR POLE
Hold the poles with your arms bent at a right angle. To adjust them: press the metal button so that sections can slide in relation to each other. Repeat the operation until you reach the desired size.

Which size to choose for your child?
-> When the pole is at its minimum setting, i.e. 75 cm, this corresponds to a 100 cm tall child on average
-> When the pole is at its maximum setting, i.e. 100 cm, this corresponds to a 145 cm tall child
This provides a rough indication and may vary from one child to another.
HOW TO USE
Before leaving: always check that your poles are properly assembled
When going downhill, or when the climb is very steep, you can make your poles longer.
When climbing, use the wrist strap for support. When going downhill, it is advisable to remove the wrist strap so that the pole does not get in your way in the event of a fall.
