These are the first poles I have owned. I debated and borrowed others, but these are fantastic. They are very sturdy, have a shock system which is adjustable inside the pole itself. The hand grips are cork, which I originally disliked, but the cork allows my hands to breathe much better. Now I would only use cork handgrips. and they seem to have molded slightly to fit my grip--these poles are fantastic. Worth the slight extra weight on long ventures.
