How to use

To use the Gabel Stretch Carbon poles, adjust the length to ensure your elbow forms a 90-degree angle when the pole tip is placed on the ground.

Maintain an upright posture and engage your core while swinging the poles in rhythm with your opposite leg, ensuring the tips are planted firmly behind your body to provide effective propulsion.
