Mountain King release a ‘Raceday’ edition of the Skyrunner Ultra

Cut from an entirely different cloth, we’re proud to count amongst our Outdoor Licence mates a number of ultra marathon runners. Not to mention our very own legend Jordan who has put his name down for the next Bob Graham race, a cool 66 mile, 27,000 ft circuit of the Lake District’s highest peaks. So pay attention Jordan and all you other super humans because Mountain King have just released what in their opinion are the ultimate ultra running poles. Manufactured in the North of England and constructed from high-grade Toray 800 Carbon Fibre they claim to be the lightest trail running poles on the market (between 108-130 grams depending on length) with zero compromise on strength. Specifically engineered for peak performance whilst under pressure, their mega tough tungsten carbide tips provide optimum traction on steep climbs and technical descents rugged terrains with the 4-section collapsible design making them super convenient for transport and storage too. Though if you’re not attempting the MDS or UTMB any time soon, these ultralight poles are also the ideal companion for slightly less heroic pursuits where you just need a additional support and stability on rugged terrain.
