How to Choose the Perfect Size Trailblaze Running Poles for Peak Performance

1. Find Your Ideal Pole Length

A quick way to get the right size:

  • A general guideline is to calculate the pole length as 68-70% of your height. Multiply your height in centimetres by 0.68 to 0.70.

2. Adjust for Different Terrains

  • Flat or technical trails: Stick to the standard length for balance.

    If you mainly us your pole for up hill running we suggest,

  • Uphill: Shorter poles give you better control.

    If you mainly us your pole for down hill running we suggest,

  • Long descents: A poles size up will help you stay comfortable and be able to place correctly in front.

3. Test for Comfort

Hold the poles with your elbows at a 90° angle—this is the sweet spot for efficiency. Adjustable poles let you fine-tune the length to match your needs.
