NO SNOW!<br />

<strong>Nordic</strong> <strong>Pole</strong> <strong>Walking</strong> gives you all the<br />

tremendous benefits from cross country<br />

skiing and more. This is proven by<br />

numerous scientific studies. You can go<br />

pole walking at the beach, in the park,<br />

in your neighborhood, on the pavement<br />

and even in the mall.<br />

The <strong>Nordic</strong> <strong>Pole</strong>s are specially<br />

developed for sport walking techniques.<br />

They are<br />

not<br />

trekking or<br />

ski poles.<br />

The light<br />

weight<br />

materials<br />

(aluminum<br />

and/or<br />

carbon) and the specially designed grips<br />

and hand loops allow easy, effective and<br />

convenient handling. The right length is<br />

65% of your body height.<br />

The best part of <strong>Nordic</strong> <strong>Pole</strong><br />

<strong>Walking</strong>...No Snow! You get to enjoy<br />

the sport in beautiful Naples, Florida!<br />
