Alpine Poles - the Poles for special challenges

Alpine ski poles must be adapted to the conditions on downhill slopes and therefore differ from cross-country or touring ski poles.

The race can begin with alpine Poles from XSPO

Only if a Poles is adapted to its area of use will it be of help to the athlete and ultimately improve their sporting performance. Alpine ski poles are specially curved. This is an advantage on downhill runs, as the poles adapt to the skier's body. This makes it easier and faster to maneuver around obstacles on the slopes.

Anyone who has dedicated themselves to alpine skiing is on the move quickly and attaches great importance to the right equipment. Models from leading manufacturers are available in XSPO's online ski store. These are not only affordable, but also offer a high level of safety and are state of the art. The material is often a combination of aluminum and carbon. Alpine Poles are small in diameter yet stable and maneuverable. Telescopic poles are also adjustable and offer the athlete a great deal of flexibility.

Alpine racing is different from a normal piste descent for leisure skiers. The equipment should be adapted accordingly. Alpine skiing requires Poles that give the athlete safety and are light, maneuverable and yet robust. This is achieved through a special design and material composition.

Alpine ski poles are specially designed for descents in alpine terrain. The poles are used to push the athlete at the start and ensure that the skier does not lose their balance once they have picked up speed. Poles also make it easier to climb up the slope or move forward on the ski lift.
