FREERIDE-POLES:
WHAT IS FREERIDING?

Today’s freerider has been the touring skier of the nineties of last century. Touring has become continuously more extreme and daring.
What is more beautiful than untouched deep powder snow and steep descents waiting to be mastered and if you can throw in a few jumps over rocks and then land
on the steepest slope – then you call it free-riding, the trendy and cool alternative skiing. That’s when you need the poles from KOMPERDELL-
especially developed for freeriders - which had to pass the hardest tests.

There is also the decision, FIXED POLE LENGTH or ADJUSTABLE POLE?
