While girthy in size, the Fatso is unbelievably light, like Jerome Bettis in his prime, able to truck defenders or use his deftness to elude them. The Komperdell pole has a polyurethane grip that is soft, won’t slip and is 43 centimeters in length, ideal for choking up when touring across a slope. A high-density aluminum (read: light, durable) locking system allows for quick and easy adjustments. Bonus: they pack down to a manageable 109 centimeters in length.
