LEKI RIDER VARIO JR SKI POLES
LEKI RIDER VARIO JR SKI POLES
The Leki Rider Vario Jr Ski Poles are high-performance, adjustable alpine poles specifically engineered to grow alongside developing junior skiers while delivering uncompromised durability and performance. Constructed from high-tensile HTS 5.5 aluminum, the lightweight two-section shaft provides exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and high impact resistance against rough resort use. Utilizing Leki’s reliable Speed Lock external adjustment mechanism, the length can be seamlessly adjusted between 85cm and 105cm, ensuring a precise fit through multiple seasons without compromising structural integrity or adding excess mass to the swing weight.
Designed with junior anatomy in mind, these poles feature the ergonomic PAS Vario grip, which is scaled down for smaller hands to offer optimal power transfer, non-slip security, and vibration absorption. The integrated safety strap features an easy-to-adjust release mechanism that provides a customized wrap over winter gloves while enhancing safety during sudden falls. Complete with compact, low-profile alpine baskets and durable steel flex tips that bite firmly into hardpack snow and ice, these expandable poles provide young skiers with steady balance and precise pole plants across all-mountain terrain.
