The Leki Spark S Ski Poles are Leki's "price point" Trigger S offering, which means they're as good as the best pole in any lineup. Built with quality 18 mm TS 5.0 aluminum, the Spark S includes Trigger S grips that allow you to scrap the straps and use Leki's clever integrated Trigger S glove system (the pole attachment and support structure is built into the glove and offers a safety release in case you hook your basket on something). Conventional gloves may also be used with the included strap.
