How do you attach the quiver to the 5L trail running gilet?
The quiver attaches diagonally to your Kiprun bag/vest:1. feed the strap on the back of the quiver into the hook on the gilet's right or left shoulder
2. position the quiver diagonally
3. take the magnet at the end of the drawcord and feed it into the slit in the synthetic piece on which the word "Quiver" is written
4. also feed drawcord toggle into the slit
5. put collapsed poles into the quiver and put bag on your back.
Forget about your poles when you've put them away!
Thanks to the properly tightened drawcord, your poles don't move when you run. So once you've put on the gilet and properly attached the quiver, you need to tighten this drawcord correctly:
- pull on the drawcord with one hand and press the drawcord toggle onto the synthetic piece with the other hand as hard as you like - to avoid having a hanging drawcord, bring the magnet onto the tongue located just under the quiver to magnetize it.
Grab hold of your poles easily while you're running .
When you reach an uphill section, it's very easy to grab hold of your poles while you're running. Here is the technique to grab hold of them in just a few seconds:
- grab hold of the drawcord and unhook the magnet
- loosen the drawcord by pulling on the drawcord toggle
- grab hold of the quiver over your shoulder and pull it into your field of vision
- then simply grab hold of your poles and let your quiver drop back.
And put them away quickly:
The quiver's innovative system brings it into your field of vision so that you can easily put away your poles:
- once your poles are collapsed and you're holding them both in one hand, grab hold of the quiver with your other hand and bring it into sight
- insert the poles into the quiver and let it drop back
- tighten up the drawcord again using the drawcord toggle to block the poles and put the magnet back under the quiver.
A quiver designed to make things simple for runners!
To help you go even faster and perform better on your runs, we have designed an innovative, very easy-to-use sliding system. It enables you to pull your quiver forwards without undoing it, to easily slide in and pull out your poles.Nicolas, Kiprun product engineer, explains:“The guiding word for us during this design work was: simplicity. We needed to ensure that you could take out and put back your poles as easily as possible, without stopping."
Compatibility
This quiver is compatible with Kiprun bags or waistcoats that have attachments to hold the quiver.If your bag/vest is not fitted with the quiver attachment system as standard, a quiver attachment kit (reference 8774137 on the decathlon.fr website) is available in the after-sales parts section.Allowing any bag to hold the quiver
Why carry this quiver on your long-distance runs?
Gaëtan, a Kiprun product manager and trail runner, explains why this innovative system on the quiver could be useful: "When you're running with two 3-section poles, putting them back into your quiver while you're running and can't see what you're doing, just when you're starting to get tired, is a real hassle! Being able to pull forward your quiver and see the entry point to easily put away your poles changes everything!"
Introducing the team behind this quiver:
The foursome behind this idea is made up of Gaëtan the product manager, Nicolas the product engineer, Juliette the prototyper and garment designer, and Lucie the designer. They are proud to present a product that they fine-tuned for 2 years to make your runs easier and leave you free to enjoy the experience.
