Peltonen R1 100% Carbon Poles

The Peltonen R1 is the default high-end pole for world-class racers from the Peltonen pole line. It`s an incredibly light, stiff carbon shaft with excellent swing weight. It is constructed for long-distance racing when extreme weight savings are critical—produced with 100% XT-60 Carbon. RX powder baskets give great pole plants even in softer snow conditions. If you need a stiffer, more survivable pole for close-quarters head-to-head sprint racing, opt for the Peltonen R1 SPRINT model. This pole model comes in `Free Length` options, meaning handles are unattached, allowing the pole shafts to be easily cut down to a custom length. Email us after you place your order for `Free Length` poles, and we`ll cut them down to the length you specify and attach the handles before shipping free of charge!
