The Leki Helicon Lite delivers excellent performance in every way, edging out the competition to be named our favorite backcountry ski pole. And, it is one of the least expensive poles on the market, making it our top choice for users on a budget as well. The grip is well-contoured and comfortable to hold, with tacky rubber that makes it easy to grasp. The wrist straps adjust easily, the handle can be used to flip tech bindings between ski and walk mode, and the secondary grip is great as well. This pole features 35 centimeters of length adjustment, which is plenty for switching from extended lengths for uphill travel to short poles for steep downhill turns, to nordic length for skating out lengthy exits. In every way, this pole is awesome, and it's more affordable than pretty much any other pole on the market. 
The downsides to this pole are few and far between, but if we had to be picky, we'd say that the colors are a bit loud, that the lower shaft could be stiffer, and that the pole could be lighter overall. These minor criticisms are the only things we could come up with. The Helicon Lite poles perform well across the board, from the most important considerations like a comfortable grip and their solid construction to the bells and whistles like an ice/snow scraper on the powder baskets. These poles do all of this at a low price, making your decision a no-brainer. We feel they are the best poles on the market, and surprisingly, also the best value.

 Your risers good, solid carbide, tip um and a strap is a very simple pole, but what makes this special is the price it is. 80 bucks there's very few poles that which are which are extendable, that you can get at that price to be made this well and to have this kind of balance, and this kind of weight at that price is phenomenal. If you are just starting up, i would highly recommend looking for this pole because it will be the best bang for your buck, so that is will with the leaky helicon light for engagement.com, and i hope you are having a beautiful day as we are in colorado
