The ESCAPE CARBON TOUR is a versatile trekking pole suitable for ski-mountaineering and snowshoeing in the winter season.
UltraLight – Comfort, Safety and Tech
- GABEL’s aim is to offer comfort, safety and cutting-edge technology. Therefore we have invested in research in order to achieve excellent levels of lightness in the ULTRALIGHT category, designed for users seeking lightness and compactness.
Snake Carbon
- The recent ''Snake Carbon'' technology applied to the latest models developed by Gabel combines the excellent resistance of high modulus carbon fibre with a distinctive geometric structure, adding an innovative type of crystallisation technology. This process has made it possible to make the tubes 20 % lighter, as well as boosting resistance by 18 %. The combination of HD technologies with these new processes and materials has thus allowed us to introduce an outstanding product onto the market.
Top Click System – T.C.S. Automatic
- Top Click System: a rapid release system for simple and secure strap adjustment that also allows for easy strap replacement. With T.C.S., in just a few seconds integrated 3D straps (e.g. FLS) can be applied simply by pulling the buckle up and out.
Multi - locking system
- In order to maximize the locking power of the models featuring the FAST LOCK, Gabel introduces the MULTI LOCKING concept that couples the locking force of the lever with the reliability of the traditional locking system with expander. The addition of an extra locking mechanism, the LITE LOCKING SYSTEM, guarantees total hold of the pole in every temperature and terrain condition.
Fast lock
- The innovative system FAST LOCK the external locking technology based on the eccentric mechanism, offering an alternative to the standard locking systems that need a rotation of the tubes. This system locks the tubes through an external lever and it is really fast and reliable, even in extreme conditions of low temperature or when wearing gloves.
- In the new Fast Lock 2012 also the micrometric adjustment system has been improved. The adjustment can be done manually, without any additional tools.
Carbide – Tip Sharp and Durable
- The tips of poles play an all-important role: sharp and durable, Gabel tips guarantee a sure grip on any type of terrain. Trekking poles have Widia tips. Rubber caps are also available for absorbing the impact on hard terrain.
