Piuma means featherweight in Italian. Vertical means vertical in English. Simple word math leads to a featherweight pole meant for skiing some vertical. The Piuma Vertical Pole is a 100% carbon fiber shaft appended with sleek Vertical race baskets. Ski Trab constructed the pole with a coiled ribbon of carbon fiber, which allows some flex to make it more durable. They were not afraid to show the secret sauce, as this is visible in the semi-translucent lower shaft. Anatomic handles with adjustable race straps crown the shaft and just might crown you champion.

• Breatheable pole straps are easily removable if you prefer to hand-solo.
• 100% carbon fiber construction is coiled instead of woven to reduce fragility.
• Vertical race baskets are rigid yet don’t lever the pole tip out of the snow.
• These are strong but do not come with a breakage warranty.
