Helinox LBB 135

Helinox LBB135 walking poles are a more compact version of the technically advanced LB135 poles. By adding an extra button join and pole section, the compacted length is reduced while still retaining the simple “one touch” length adjustment feature. Going to four pole sections (instead of the LB135's three) means the LBB135 has the shortest storage length of any Helinox adjustable pole.

Helinox LBB135 walking poles are the most technically advanced adjustable length walking poles (also known as 'trekking poles' or 'hiking poles') available in the world. The LBB135 poles are ultra lightweight, compact, immensely strong, reliable and the most easily adjustable. The LBB135 can be adjusted in length to suit persons of height range 130 - 205 cm (from 4'3" to 6'9" tall). Suited for general bushwalking, walking and trekking in all conditions with or without a pack. The LBB135 is the favorite pole for experienced bushwalkers and trekkers that want a light weight but stiff pole with adjustable length that needs to be compacted shorter to fit easier into a pack or suitcase.
