These [Super Makalu Cor-Tec] are supposed to be replacements for my son. He has hiked the AT and PCT and next year we go to the CDT and he is only 13. he outgrew his kids sidez ones that lasted him through the first 2 hikes. I managed to bend the lower section of this new set and then when i took it apart to try to fix it, i lost the the dang lower section. But REI doesn't carry parts apparently. And our favorite Hike was the PCT. My pair though battered is still holding up and will hopefully last for the CDT as well.

LEKI USA partnered with American Hiking Society (AHS) and American Park Network to create Hiking 101 clinics designed to teach people the basics of outdoor adventure with an emphasis on the benefits of using poles.
Participants were part of interactive "how to" lessons starting with hiking essentials - Leave No Trace Principles, preparation and gear.
At the end of the workshops, LEKI and American Park Network donated all the poles used during the clinics to the American Hiking Society.
