Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)These Nordic Walking poles, made by Leki, are GREAT! The poles are well-made, very light weight and well-balanced. The Nordic glove is very comfortable. The gloves are also very easy to release from the pole with Leki's quick release system. Nordic walking is a relatively new sport in the United States, but one can see people all over in Europe and the "Northern Countries" out Nordic walking. It is a great sport; my family and I have taken it up and we all love it!

Dual aluminum and carbon construction, streamlined grips and height adjustability make LEKI Instructor Nordic walking poles ideal for advanced fitness walkers. High-performance wrist straps and fitness-specific rubber walking tips equip the Instructor with the features needed for aerobic activity. Rapidly growing in popularity in the United States, Nordic walking is a fresh approach to fitness. Started by the Finnish cross-country ski team to maintain conditioning during snow-less summer months, Nordic walking burns at least 20 percent more calories than regular walking. Two specially designed poles are used in a manner that mimics cross-country skiing, swinging to match each step you take and working your upper body while you walk. Nordic walking poles have a narrower grip than traditional trekking poles and feature form-fitting wrist straps and tapered rubber tips designed specifically for fitness walking. LEKI utilizes lightweight anodized aluminum in the upper shaft of the two-section Instructor and constructs the lower shaft from ultra-light carbon. By utilizing carbon, LEKI reduces the overall swing weight of the poles to a mere 16 ounces per pair while the aluminum increases the overall durability of the poles. Nordic walking subjects your wrists to a great amount of repetitive stress. The Instructor's Energy +30 trigger straps are designed to help alleviate this issue. Completely hugging your wrist and hand, Energy +30 trigger straps provide secure support and help to absorb the shock caused by the impact of each stride. An integrated click-release enables you to fully adjust the straps and disengage them from the poles when you need your hands free. When you're ready to go again, simply pop the straps back onto the grips and you can be on your way without any need for readjusting. The foam of LEKI's AirERGO Nordic trigger grip provides a firm handhold and helps to reduce the sweat and tenderness caused by less forgiving grips. Designed to deflect up
