The company uses only the best materials and technologies in its field, and works every day to ensure that users of Gabel products feel superior and are confident in their choice.

The Gabel company is very thorough in each of its directions, cooperating with leading organizations in the field and participating in the development of methodologies. Standing at the origins of the popularization of Nordic walking in Italy, along with ASD (Association of New Trails), the University of Padua, and AIMEF (Italian Association of Family Physicians), the Gabel company was directly involved as a technical consultant in the refinement and improvement of the Nordic walking technique and set of exercises walking Thus, you can have no doubt that when you buy Gabel Nordic walking sticks, you are getting the right product that can improve the results of classes and not harm your health.

Performance is a line of poles for Nordic walking that combines minimum weight and maximum efficiency, designed for instructors, athletes and the most demanding users who are not looking for compromises. The line is designed for a frequency of classes more than three times a week, and an average user weight of up to 100 kg, while having a sufficient safety margin.

Active Tip - a light and strong curved pointed tip in the form of claws, which perfectly absorbs impacts on hard surfaces, optimizes repulsion, supports correct technique and promotes fast walking. The special shape of the tip allows you to extend the service life three times compared to traditional products.

Carbide - pole tips play the most important role: sharp and strong, Gabel tips guarantee a reliable grip on any type of terrain. All Gabel trekking poles are equipped with the highest quality Widia (tungsten carbide) carbide tips of Swiss origin.

Comfort Strap - the right glove strap - is a key element in Nordic walking. The new Comfort Power strap with a modified shape now provides a better fit and a higher level of comfort for the hand. Practicality is also complemented by a new opening / closing system, which is now located on the back of the hand and has a special light tab.

Grip - the rounded shape of the handle from above and its angle of inclination of 6-7 ° contribute to a more convenient grip and release of the handle during training. All Gabel handles are made of hypoallergenic materials and have a texture that prevents sweating. The handle is adapted for use with both the NCS Nordic Walking Glove Straps and the FLS Trail Running Glove Straps

Nordic Click System is a fastening system with the ability to quickly unfasten the glove strap from the handle. To release, just press the button located on top of the handle. The strap is just as easy to fasten back. It often happens that during classes you need to take something out of your pocket or simply answer the phone. In such cases, the NCS system is simply indispensable for those who regularly engage in Nordic walking.

Reflex - a small reflective element in the form of a triangle, placed on the sections of the sticks, will help the user to remain visible in the evening and be safe when moving along the roadway. The element provides effective reflection of almost 100% of the light that falls on it.

Carbon 85 - for the production of carbon sticks, the Gabel company uses a composite with a content of 85% high-modulus carbon fiber and 15% glass fiber, laid at a certain angle to each other, which makes it possible to obtain sticks that are more elastic to deformations and better able to dampen vibrations at a lower weight than a high-quality aluminum alloy . Taking advantage of the fact that it is difficult for the consumer to determine the actual composition of the composite, many manufacturers do not specify the percentage of carbon fiber content, while Gabel indicates the percentage for each of its models.
