To choose the ideal option before buying, the user should take their total height as the main reference and contrast it with the product's sizing table. As it is a technical mountain activity, an essential recommendation prior to purchase is to measure the distance from the ground to the crease of the elbow while standing with the regular hiking footwear on. The correct adjustment on flat terrain is achieved by confirming that, when gripping the cane naturally, the elbow forms an exact 90° right angle.
This position is what guarantees the best lever arm for the impulse, prevents premature arm fatigue, and ensures that the carbon fiber structure absorbs vibrations efficiently. As a guideline for dynamic adjustment during the activity, it is recommended to slightly shorten the length of the cane by a few centimeters when tackling steep ascents to improve the front support point, and to lengthen it during descents to maintain a more upright, safe, and protected posture.
