Features

Folkrm poles built with the splitboarder in mind. The Kulshan is a folding and adjustable pole equipped with a more packable version of our long grip. The Kulshan allows you to store the pole directly in your backpack for descents or ultra technical ascents.

The Kulshan Poles are named after the great Mt. Baker, home of the core and platform of some of the wildest snowfall the world has ever seen. Designed for splitboarders, the Kulshan features a quick locking mechanism that allows the pole to be deployed like a probe and then adjusted to your desired height.

With a grip that is still long enough to accommodate quick pole length adjustments, once deployed you won't need to think about adjusting your pole again. Simply adjust your hand position on the pole to lengthen or shorten it for on the go pole length adjustment.

AI FAQs

AI generated FAQs about the Kulshan Poles Onyx Black

How do I know if the length is right for my height and skiing style?

These poles adjust from 105 to 135 cm with an easy-flip lock and internal locking mechanism. You can deploy them quickly, set your preferred height, and use the long grip to make on-the-go effective length changes by moving your hand position.

How much do these poles weigh, and will that matter by the end of a long day?

These poles weigh 307 g (10.7 oz). For a long splitboarding or alpine-touring day, you can factor that stated weight into your overall backcountry kit.

Will these poles help me on steep terrain?

These poles are built for splitboarding and can be stored directly in your backpack for descents or ultra-technical ascents. Their quick locking mechanism lets you deploy them like a probe and then adjust them to your desired height.

Do these poles come with different grip or strap options?

These poles have a long, packable Folkrm grip and easily removable straps. You can remove the straps when riding in avalanche terrain, while the extended grip lets you change effective pole length by shifting your hand position.

Are the baskets the right size for the terrain I ski?

These poles use locking freeride powder baskets measuring 9 cm (3.5 in) in diameter. The powder-basket setup suits the poles’ splitboarding and alpine-touring focus in soft-snow conditions.

Should I choose poles with adjustable length, or are fixed poles better for my needs?

These are adjustable, folding three-piece Z-poles with a 105–135 cm range rather than fixed-length poles. Their quick-deploy construction and packable long grip suit splitboarding and alpine touring when you want to stow poles in your backpack for descents or technical ascents.
