Walking Pole Feet Options
Understand – Walking Pole Feet Options:
Your Keenfit Walking Poles will be able to take you anywhere. The basic accessories like carbide-tips, trail-feet, beach-baskets & road-feet come standard with our walking poles.
Carbide-tips – are great for off-road, more rugged terrain – they help you to dig into anything from hard-rock to uneven softer trails – used with the trail baskets they prevent your walking poles from sinking into the softer, looser ground. You wouldn’t want to use the carbide-tips for walking on roads though [if the noise doesn’t get you the vibration up each arm is sure to!].
Beach / Trail Baskets – are plastic disks that easily screw on – approximately 3 inches up from the bottom of the walking pole – baskets are designed for beach/sand & deep grassy trails – they prevent your Walking Poles from sinking into the softer, looser ground – like grass or sand.
Trail-feet – are made of durable rubber to wear on the bottom of your walking poles over your carbide-tips for looser, less compact terrain.They help you to grip more rugged ground on a variety of different trails and can be worn with the trail baskets to prevent your poles from sinking into the softer, looser ground.
Road-feet – are made of soft yet durable quality-rubber, perfect for pavement, roads & sidewalks. The softness adds shock-absorbency to hard surfaces – to help you grab the road & propel yourself forward but yet the strength adds toughness – so as not to wear them out too quickly. Keenfit Road-feet – if you have proper technique – should last you about 6 months to a 1 year.
