Meet the Leki Detect S Ski Poles – they’re like your secret weapon for an epic day on the mountain. These bad boys are all about top-notch performance without the fuss. These poles won us over as the best overall resort pole for many reasons.
These poles are not just about performance; they’re sleek and lightweight. Crafted from high-quality aluminum, they won’t weigh you down. Traditionally, they come with an alpine-specific basket, but this can easily be changed out for a big mountain basket when you need more float.
Now, here’s where things get fancy: the Detect S poles come with the Trigger S system. This system essentially allows you to attach your Leki gloves to the poles without fumbling with traditional straps.
It is designed as a safety mechanism (similar to a ski and binding) that will detach when needed. For someone who is used to traditional straps, this feature may be a downside since it takes some getting used to.
We highly recommend the Leki Detect S ski poles for quality, price, and safety.
