A small packing size and minimal weight are the strengths of the Carbon TA XTG. The pole is made from 100% carbon and HTS 6.5 aluminium with a svelte weight of 215 g, making it the lightest telescopic pole in Leki's legendary collection. The stiff carbon lower segment provides an incredibly stiff and efficient plant, meaning you won't have bothersome bowing in the system.

The pole sits perfectly in your hand thanks to the Aergon Thermo Long Grip, while the SpeedLock 2 system allows easy and fast length adjustment between 100 and 135 cm. The Carbon TA XTG is a perfect choice for hikers seeking the lightest pole possible, supreme packability, and the durability and reliability of a carbon/aluminum pole for technnical outings.
