The Activa pole proposed by Exel is an excellent choice for new Nordic ski lovers, looking for their first pole. Its mixed carbon and glass fiber tube makes it very light, 83g per meter, which is very interesting for a model especially designed for leisure use. It has a sufficient rigidity to allow dynamism and performance in pushing, without losing tolerance. It is also particularly robust. Sturdiness is one of the most important criteria when you choose your first equipment, in order to avoid breakage, especially when you take a hold where the angles are sometimes risky. Finally, it is equipped with very good accessories with a cork handle and an ergonomic strap that restores the energy in pushing efficiently. It is also equipped with a 45mm Avenger basket that allows to face all types of snow conditions.
