Product Information "KANG Bamboo Freeride Ski Poles Beige Greige"
The KANG Bamboo Freeride in beige is a ski pole made from 100 percent bamboo, hand-shaped in the workshop in Åre. No two poles are alike; each pair has its own unique grain pattern. It also features a 35-cm-long EVA grip, a removable strap system, and a 90-mm Rider’s basket for powder snow.
KANG Bamboo Freeride Beige: the handcrafted bamboo ski pole from Åre
Bamboo is tough, lightweight, and absorbs shocks better than aluminum. The shafts have a diameter of 16 to 18 mm and weigh about 245 g per pole at 120 cm, give or take a little depending on the wall thickness of the bamboo. The long EVA grip lets you grip lower on steep terrain without having to wrap your hand around the pole. You can remove the strap in seconds using the KANG Detachable Strap System—the safer option on powder days or in the woods. The grip, basket, and strap in greige are color-coordinated with the natural bamboo.

Who is it for and what lengths are available?
For freeriders and anyone who wants a pole with character on the slopes and in the powder. Length as usual: Hold the pole upside down by the basket; your forearm should be horizontal. For riders between 170 and 178 cm tall, 120 cm is usually the right length; 125 cm for those 178 cm and taller; and 115 cm for those under 170 cm. Many riders opt for a pole that’s 5 cm shorter for off-piste use.
How durable is bamboo compared to aluminum?
Bamboo bends under load and springs back, whereas aluminum snaps. It’s more than sturdy enough for freeriding and on-piste skiing, but it’s not suitable for slalom courses.
Can I change the basket and strap?
Yes, the baskets and straps are interchangeable, and replacement parts are available from KANG. The strap can be removed without tools.
Is the pole adjustable?
No, the Bamboo Freeride is a fixed-length pole. For an adjustable version made from recycled aluminum, check out the KANG Recycled 22 Adjustable.
