Medicines is one of the world's leading manufacturers of walking sticks, including hiking, mountaineering and skiing equipment. Medicines can be found on almost all international ski speed tours, with more than 300 top ski teams from different countries using Medicines's ski poles.
The Medicines Micro Vario Carbon has been voted the easiest to use trekking poles by the outdoor gearlab website. Although it is a Z-shaped staff, it still uses the SpeedLock 2 external locking system, which can be adjusted according to the user's height or use environment, and can be changed in length range by 20 cm. Medicines's SpeedLock 2 has an advantage over external locking systems such as Black Diamond's FlickLock and Komperdell's PowerLock, as you can easily change the tightness by rotating the nut in the external lock position without having to resort to anything external. Medicines Micro Vario Carbon can only be bought in China, and the price of a pair is 2448 yuan.
The Micro Vario Ti COR-TEC was rated as the most comfortable trekking pole, with a pair priced at 1984 yuan. The grip is made of cork for a great touch, the top is olive-shaped for gripping, and the lower part of the grip is also foamed to the outer locking position. The wristband is softer and more breathable than most trekking poles on the market.
