    In words

    Intro
    Lightweight and strong, this is a pole for demanding users. It packs all the best features of other Cober models, from the adjustable clamping mechanism with grooved wheel for easy adjusting, to the semi-circle basket and handy neoprene wrist strap paired with an anatomical foam grip that isn't textured. What makes the difference here, though, is the carbon-fiber upper section (16 mm) and carbon/kevlar lower section, which give the pole its stability and stiffness and provide protection where it's needed.
