Q1: Will they fit in my carry-on luggage?
TheFitLife Carbon Fiber trekking poles are 3-section telescopic (NON-FOLDING) poles with: Maximum extended length: 135 cm (53"")
Shortest packed length: 64 cm (25"")
For air travel, please note:
Checked baggage: Recommended. Disassemble the poles into three sections to reach a compact 54 cm (21.3""), which fits easily inside a standard 22"" suitcase per IATA guidelines.
Carry-on luggage: Generally not permitted. Most airlines restrict rigid, pole-shaped items in cabin baggage for safety and space reasons—even at their shortest length (54–64 cm), they exceed typical carry-on size limits or violate shape policies.
We recommend checking your airline’s specific sports equipment policy before travel.
Backpacking: When hiking, attach the poles externally to your pack using dedicated compression or gear straps for quick access on the trail.

Q2: What’s the difference between carbon fiber and aluminum trekking poles?
Carbon fiber poles are significantly lighter—typically around 8 oz (225 g) per pole compared to 12 oz (340 g) for aluminum—making carbon fiber poles ideal for long hikes, fastpacking, or alpine terrain where every ounce counts. They also absorb 30–40% more shock from rocky descents, reducing arm fatigue and joint strain. However, aluminum poles (made from high-strength 7075-T9 alloy) are more impact-resistant, especially under sideways stress like accidental drops or ice impacts, and are generally more affordable.
 Importantly, in extreme cold (below -30°C / -22°F)—such as polar expeditions or high-altitude winter climbs—aluminum performs more reliably. Carbon fiber can become brittle in ultra-low temperatures and may crack if struck sharply, while aluminum retains its toughness. That said, for most winter hiking (down to -20°C / -4°F), quality carbon poles like ours are perfectly safe and widely trusted.
 Choose carbon fiber for lightweight comfort and efficiency on trails. Choose aluminum for rugged durability, budget value, or extreme cold/technical use.
 Weighing only 7.1 oz per pole, our carbon poles are 10% lighter than typical models on the market.

Q3: What type of locking system do your trekking poles use? And what’s the main difference between Flip Lock and Twist Lock?
Our carbon fiber poles feature Flip Lock.
Here’s how it compares to Twist Lock:
Flip Lock: Adjusts in seconds—ideal for cold or wet conditions. Easy to clean, with clear visual feedback. Slightly heavier but highly reliable.
Twist Lock: Lighter and sleeker (no external levers), and on some designs, offers smooth operation even in winter use—but can jam if dirt or ice gets into the threads.
Choose Flip Lock for speed and rel
