Every day we receive thank you emails and thank you cards from customers that have discovered that when using the perfect length Nordic Walking Poles and the correct technique they can walk much more comfortably and effectively.

Using the Perfect Length Poles helps to improve walking posture and radically reduces the stress to the feet, ankles, shins, knees, hips and back! It sounds like a miracle, but it is just good physics/improved biomechanics.

When I had to give up marathon running because of my knee, my Nordic Walking Poles saved the day - allowing me to not only walk comfortably again, but also run with the poles. The poles really did radically reduce the stress to my knee.

Individuals with arthritis in their hands and/or wrists, plus carpal tunnel, find that they can use our comfortable fingerless glove type straps - patented by the Salomon Ski Company - even when they can't use regular ski poles/ski straps.

At the American Nordic Walking System we recommend durable and user friendly one-piece Nordic Walking Poles that prove to be safer, lighter and much more dependable than cheap/flimsy 2-piece or 3-piece twist-lock and/or flip-lock poles from China that tend to rattle, vibrate, freeze-up and/or collapse unexpectedly.

Walking with poles is the best!
