Which Nordic walking poles should you choose? Telescopic, foldable or one-piece?
Choosing the right Nordic walking pole is key to ensuring comfort and performance. There are three main types:
- One-piece poles: These are the most recommended for Nordic walking. Lightweight and stiff, they offer excellent energy transfer and better stability.
- Telescopic poles: Adjustable in height, they’re handy for those who want to fine-tune the length or share their gear. However, they’re often heavier and less durable than one-piece models.
- Foldable poles: Compact and easy to carry, they’re ideal for hikers, but less suited to Nordic walking due to their reduced stiffness.
If you practice Nordic walking regularly, carbon one-piece poles are the best choice for their lightness and excellent shock absorption.
What is the ideal size for Nordic walking poles?
Choosing the right pole length is crucial for proper posture and optimal performance. The basic rule is to use the following formula:
Pole length = Walker’s height × 0.68
For example:
- A person measuring 1.70 m should choose poles around 115 cm.
- For 1.80 m, 120 cm poles are recommended.
The goal is to have a 90° angle at your elbow when holding the pole. Some models offer slight size adjustments, but it’s best to choose fixed-length poles if you want better stability and optimal energy transfer.
What are the best Nordic walking poles? Aluminium or carbon?
Nordic walking poles are generally made from aluminium or carbon, each offering distinct characteristics:
- More affordable
- Strong and impact-resistant
- Slightly heavier
- Less vibration dampening
- Weight savings
- Excellent vibration absorption
- Ideal for long walking sessions
- Higher price point
If you’re looking for performance, comfort, and reduced joint impact, carbon fiber poles are the ideal choice. They deliver better propulsion and optimal comfort across all terrains. However, it’s important to note that most carbon poles on the market are hybrid models, where carbon is blended with fiberglass. This combination helps lower costs while still providing good vibration absorption.
Conclusion on Nordic walking gear
The choice of Nordic walking poles depends on your practice and your budget. Carbon one-piece models are the most recommended for fitness walking, while aluminium or telescopic poles can suit beginners or more occasional use.
