I know these items are very popular and as explained have some benefit, but they are not an item that is really needed. People have been doing fine without them for thousands of years. I used them for years when they first came out but no longer feel I have a need for them. They're just something else to carry. Where they do shine is in crossing a deep stream but a discardable stick works just as well. Thanks anyway, but no thanks.

This is one of the MANY reasons expertvillage is crap. They got un-experienced guys giving out false information, and also they segment their videos into ridiculous amounts of segments. This video needs to be deleted because its actually harmful to use the poles the way this guy does.

he doesn't even walk with them right, what a tool

Only watch this clip to see how NOT to do it. He is gripping the pole in the wrong place, the straps are wrong & the hight is wrong

I'm sorry to contradict, but we've trained thousands of people to use their bodies efficiently using poles. Correct use of the straps will prevent hand/wrist/shoulder strain and recruit core muscles. Optimal pole length will improve performance on steep terrain. Trekking poles are hugely beneficial for saving your knees, but you really don't want to convert that saved energy into hand strain. Learn optimal use, but probably not from this video. Sorry!

I've used trekking poles extensively in the past and found them unnecessary. A lot of people enjoy using them but I find less helpful than useful.

Hate it when those American Jungle Spiders attack. Thank god for trekking poles!

This guy doesn't know how to insert his hands in the loops. The way he's holding them is dangerous. This video should be pulled.

I think he should stick those poles up his ASS.
