Leki Sherpa FX Carbon Pole
The Sherpa FX Carbon is a high-performance pole designed for splitboarders looking to venture far into the backcountry. The carbon upper helps keep the weight down while the aluminum lowers fend off errant edge strikes. The Aergon Air grip with hollow-core technology is light but provides a large, ergonomically shaped grip for comfort and control while skinning. The back of the grip is fully rubberized, helping you find purchase when your gloves are starting to ice up at the end of a long and cold day. Providing adjustability on the skin track is the Speedlock 2 + system, which allows for seamless adjustments between 110-130cm. For descending, the pole breaks down into 3, 16-inch sections, allowing it to be easily stowed in a pack. Being light, durable, and packable, the Sherpa FX Carbon is an excellent companion to bring along for your backcountry adventures.
