BAFX Products Anti-Shock Trekking Poles are great for hiking in almost any terrain including, grassland, rocks, mountain trails and snow. This 2-pack design provides two poles so I could use one while my hiking partner (either my wife or a friend) makes use of the second one.

I was planning to go on a rather long and difficult hike, and I needed tough, durable and comfortable hiking poles. So I did extensive research on hiking poles, and this set of poles caught my attention – the BAFX Products Anti-Shock Hiking Trail Poles. It is sold at a great price with special features and benefits. It made a big difference while hiking on rugged terrain and I decided to share what I discovered during my research with you in this review.

Adjustable Length and Twist Lock

Each pole has an adjustable length ranging from about 26 to 53 inches. While traveling, the pole fits perfectly into my luggage because it can be compressed to about 2 feet. When it is time for hiking, it stretches out to provide the support and balance I need. Then I use the twist lock to keep it at the desired height. The poles come with a very nice pocket guide and an instructional video that shows you how to use them for hiking on different types of trails.

Excellent Grip and Wrist Strap

The grip of the hiking poles is quite comfortable; I didn't even feel any pain after hiking in the woods for several hours. Its ergonomic grip helped me to maintain balance while coming downhill, wading through streams, and climbing uphill. Also, the wrist strap is well padded, and it provided additional comfort while I was on my hike. The 16-inch loop was also very easy to adjust.

Anti-Shock Spring

One of the major reasons why I chose this BAFX product hiking pole was the anti-shock design. You may not appreciate the impact of this feature if you spend very little time hiking on a trail. But because I had to hike for a whole day, moving through various types of terrain including some rocky paths, I decided to buy a hiking pole with an anti-shock design.

The anti-shock mechanism reduces the force that is transferred to your arms when the pole hits the ground. While the standard pole simply uses rubber tips to reduce impact, the anti-shock feature on this pole reduces the jolting effect on my elbows and wrists when I use them on rocky terrain.
