The Salomon Steep Pro Vario S3 is a premium, highly versatile two-piece telescopic ski pole designed specifically for backcountry skiing, alpine touring, and freeride adventures. Engineered with a hybrid construction, it balances rugged durability with lightweight agility. The pole features a fast-acting, secure length adjustment system to handle changing terrain, and it includes specialized backcountry tools built directly into the shaft for on-the-go convenience.
Key Features & Specifications:
Hybrid Shaft Material: Engineered with a durable 16 mm aluminum upper shaft to withstand impacts, paired with a lightweight 14 mm carbon lower shaft that is reinforced with Kevlar for extra protection against sharp ski edges.
EasyLock Adjustment: Equipped with a dependable lever-lock system that allows you to quickly adjust the length on the fly from 100 cm to 135 cm, making it easy to adapt between steep uphill touring and technical descents.
S3 Premium Safety Release Grip: Features a bi-material freeride grip with an integrated safety strap system. The strap is designed to automatically unclip or release from the handle under high tension during a critical fall, significantly reducing the risk of wrist and shoulder injuries.
Integrated Tools: Includes two built-in screwdrivers (hidden inside the upper/lower shaft junction) allowing you to make quick adjustments to your ski bindings, camera mounts, or other gear while out in the field.
Powder & Ice Ready: Outfitted with a wide 95 mm freeride powder basket for excellent flotation in deep snow, alongside a premium carbide/widia tip engineered to bite securely into hardpack snow and ice.
