Love to walk and love to travel? Looking for the additional stability and balance provided by the Motivator grip? Then these poles are for you. The team at York Nordic has created these folding travel poles for the busy traveler and they are now available with the Motivator grip. The poles fold up to just 13.5 inches and include their own Velcro strap and carrying case.

PATENTED GRIP FOR BALANCE: Our patented grip has an ergonomic grip and two thumb positions. Position 1 - Thumb on the side gives you a stable hold and balance. Position 2 - Thumb on the top reduces stress on hands and wrists and improves proprioception and stability.

PREFERRED BY PHYSICAL THERAPISTS: Trusted by physical therapists for balance improvement. Ideal for Parkinson's patients, stroke recovery, cancer rehab, hip replacement, knee surgery, spinal injuries or anywhere walking is part of your rehab. The unique design relieves joint stress and enhances posture and core muscles. Takes weight and stress off of knees and joints and can ease the pain of arthritis while walking.

UNIQUE CONTOURED HAND REST: Our palm cradle provides maximum hand support, maintaining a neutral wrist position and reducing strain on wrists and joints. Helps engage core muscles as you walk.

 Our poles are made from high grade aluminum and feature our exclusive flip locks that quickly snap (and stay) in place. Take a look at this quick start guide video to see how these poles work.
