Built by K2's Factory Team as the ultimate freeride pole, the V12 Ski Pole's low weight and high strength make it ideal for any terrain, and any condition. Ten strands of carbon fiber wrap around this performance ski pole's composite shaft. This combines the light weight strength of carbon fiber with the durability of an aluminum pole. A thermoplastic grip gives you a secure hold when you're hauling down steep, white-knuckle terrain, and chrome accents will let everyone know what's up when you roll into the park.
Bottom Line: Grip the K2 V12 Ski poles, push off, and charge the mountain with all cylinders firing.
Poles seem good - a little heavier/thicker than I was expecting, but hopefully that means they'll hold up well. Only issue is that although they specified two sets of baskets - one for hard, one for soft snow - they only came w/ hard snow ones. Big issue for me as I backcountry much more than resort ski. Two 'chat' sessions and 5 weeks after receiving the gear I'm still waiting for this store to send me my missing baskets - hopefully they'll show soon
Good poles so far, paint on the grips wears off easily but that is not that big of an issue as your glove cover it anyway. They seem strong and flexible enough to take a beating. Overall I am pleased with these poles.
