Like MCH I had trouble with adjustable poles slipping. I had a few aluminum's bend.
I used these last year and I love them. They are PERFECT....except they aren't....they're one piece fixed length. The fixed length doesn't bother me at all when using them as the grip is long enough to work around that in use. Strapping them to a pack sucks though....everything's a trade off.
https://ultimatedirection.com/fk-trekking-poles/In the future I'll probably try some of the Carbon Z's that MCH mentioned previously. I doubt I'd like them more than the Ultimate Directions when using them but no doubt I'd like them more when not using them!
