LIGHTWEIGHT AND EXCEPTIONALLY DURABLE
The lightweight and exceptionally durable VIA Ski Poles are packed with features designed for backcountry use and built to outlast the demanding abuse of mountain travel.
Designed for ultimate control, the handle features a comfortable foam grip with a dual-density plastic upper and a QuickFlick Utility Tab to easily adjust binding heel lifts or boot buckles on the fly.
Engineered for the climb, the NEW Ascent Grip further down the shaft uses thick, ribbed foam to create an extended and ergonomic choke-up zone. This delivers a comfortable hold and vital precision for stability on technical skintracks and bootpacks.
Complete with 85mm all-mountain baskets for confident flotation, easily removable wrist straps, aerospace-level 7075 aluminum construction, and secure length adjusting lever, the VIA provides everything you need for total confidence all the way to the valley floor.

NEW ASCENT GRIP
Your poles are your constant partner on the climb. The all-new Ascent Grip is a dedicated choke-up zone engineered for efficiency, comfort, and ultimate control on the skintrack. This simple, intuitive upgrade gives you better precision without compromising downhill performance across all VIA and FIXIE poles.
1. Precision Handling: Thick, ribbed foam gives you a positive, confident hold exactly where you need it for side-hilling, bootpacks, and technical traverses. This allows for instinctual hand placement without fumbling to adjust your pole length.
2. Lighter & Optimized For Efficiency: The carefully selected foam construction contributes to a reduction in overall pole weight while improving swing weight. By minimizing mass at the point of contact, we reduce hand and shoulder fatigue, allowing you to push further and faster up the skintrack.
3. Insulated Comfort: Keeps your hands warmer by eliminating direct shaft contact.
4. Ergonomic Confidence: The durable, ribbed foam material is ergonomically shaped to fit your hand naturally. This prevents hot spots and minimizes strain on big vertical days, delivering a comfortable and confident hold.
