Yana Poles
Currently out of stock while being upgraded for 2025. We found a way to shave .25 ounces out of each pole, so the worlds lightest trekking poles, just got lighter. How and why are we doing it? The tips are being replaced with custom machined UHMW(Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) with replaceable titanium points. UHMW is not only very impact and abrasion resistant, it is also half the weight of most plastics. The screw in titanium points can be replaced by unscrewing them form the UHMW tips. by replacing just the point you can extend the life of the tips even long.
By having all the weight reduction at the tip of the pole, the worlds lightest trekking poles now have the lightest swing weight in the world. This improves the efficiency of motion, and reduces fatigue.
