The impressive RD 13 Carbon is an ultralight racing pole that is also ultra stable. Sophisticated carbon construction lets it easily handle occasional gate contact at race tempo. Light, strong Aramid ski edge protection helps prevent the pole from being damaged. The non-slip, optimally ergonomic 2K Grip ensures a secure hold at every turn. When the basket has had a rough season of racing you can easily swap it for a new one, just like the pros.
