"Must have addition in a snow-filled environment!"

Rating:*****
I wish I had these baskets when I ran into snow conditions! The baskets work better in soft snow as opposed to snow that is hard packed, or nearing ice hardness. As opposed to the stock baskets that come with the poles, these baskets are about 4 to 5 times the size in diameter and really allow the user to leverage their weight onto the snow and distribute the downward force over a much greater area, much like when using snowshoes. The baskets also don't have the serrated teeth edges that come with the standard Leki baskets, and so they don't bite into the snow and get stuck as easily. It also seems like the 5 concentric circles and the 5 concentric gaps around the perimeter of the baskets de

"excellent for any snowsports."

Rating:*****
These are a must in backcounty snowshoeing. The biggest ones are a bit cumbersom, but these work very well. They also hold up well to rock and sticks and such. And they stay on no matter what!

"Good buy, Leki makes quality equipment"

I love my Leki poles, and these are a great accessory if you like to do a lot of winter backpacking like me. Or maybe you just like snowflakes, thats cool too.

"they work"

Rating:****
Quality product, but I think it would be sweet if they were a little bit larger in diameter. They do the job though and I definitely don't regret buyin' them.

Do the job fine! Easy pressure fit requires no tools to put or or remove. A must for snow!
