I have been running trekking poles for the last couple decades. I am believer in the efficiency one can get from using these tools over long days on the trail. What I appreciate about these poles is the comfortable and easy to adjust straps, pre installed to work with the under hand support (so many users get this wrong when not properly threaded before delivery), easy to use button to break down the poles even with cold digits and super lightweight carbon construction. The grips are cozy and have intuitive welts that for predictable movement as you slide your hand up and down the pole on uneven terrain. Bravo Folkrm! Welcome to the trail realm.
I received my Wonderlands the other day and have put them through the ringer already. I find that steep scree fields can be a carbon pole's worst enemy. The alpine climbs I used these for over the past week had approaches with a heinous amount of steep scree field navigation both up and down. The durability shined bright to say the least.
The weight and packability actually made me forget I had them with me in my backpack while I was climbing and descending back to the trail. These poles do no seem to compromise anything for how light they are. I could not recommend them enough. There is no question these will come with me on any non-ski trip I plan to undertake for work or recreation. For ski trips I use their other poles!
This pole is easy to use, lightweight, and durable. Dreams. I can't wait to continue to bring these into the mountains. The quiver being included is a great addition too. Plus, the color combo is really nice.
The light weight simple but study design of these is exactly what you want out there to rely on. I love the pole bag too, for quick conversion to scramble mode if you need to put them away. New favorite piece of speed hiking gear.
These are the best poles for glaciers and big days in the mountains for the NW! I love the swappable baskets and burly build. I am so stoked to have Folkrm year round!

I've been waiting for folkrm to conquer the trail running world for the longest time. Missing that feeling of a long EVA grip in my hands during the warmer months.
These poles are the answer to my prayers. They're burly, really light, so easy to deploy, and you can even repair them in the field. The included pole quiver is also super sick (price with the pole quiver is crazy good!!!)
Thank you Folkrm!!!
