1000 | Kang Poles 2
A telescopic pole made in collaboration with Kang — now in its second edition. Refined for better durability and feel. Adjustable from 100-135 cm, featuring a 35 cm freeride handle and a detachable strap for skiing in avalanche terrain.Version 2 includes better adhesives, a new stop mark that prevents over-extension, an improved inner-tube design for a tighter, noise-free feel, and a stronger basket attachment.
There was a guy on the T-bar. He told us he had a ski pole brand that was all about sustainability. A word that always makes our mouths water. At the end of the T-bar we shook hands — whatever that meant. It was a good shake, not too hard and not like a dead fish.
Since then, we’ve kept skiing with their poles. The first pair we made together worked so well that we couldn’t resist making a second one — tighter, stronger, and even better built. Kang’s still Kang, and we’re still us. Just a bit wiser, and maybe a touch more obsessed with details.
Never underestimate encounters on the T-bar. Especially the ones that lead to a version two.

Product Care
If you're keen on maximizing the lifespan of your product:
Transport: Always put the poles on top of the skis in the roof box, not the other way around.
Keep dry: Store them in a dry space when not in use.
Protect: Use strap or a pole bag to protect them from scratches and dings when not in use.
