Nordic Walking Poles & The Nordic Kiwi Philosophy

To get the most out of your Nordic Walking poles - whether you are using them for exercise to improve your health and fitness, for an event, recreation or hiking, we believe that you should learn the correct Nordic Walking technique before you invest in poles.

We import 'Exel' and 'Mountain to Sea' Nordic Walking poles into New Zealand.  Exel is the original company that developed Nordic Walking in its modern form.

We suggest you contact one of our New Zealand qualified Instructors listed on the Instructor's page to help you make the right selection for you.  The instructors will introduce you to Nordic Walking and assist you to purchase correctly sized poles or any of the other equipment listed below.

For further information, please contact: 0274 383 923.

  • The "Sport" Nordic Walking pole is perfectly suited for the athletically-minded who are focussed on fitness.

  • Fixed length poles are the first choice recommendation of Nordic Walking specialists.  Replacement asphalt paws are readily available.

Mountain to Sea (MtoS) "Adjust"

  • The poles are adjustable in length - therefore, one size fits all.

The Nordic Walking Asphalt Paw & Spike Tip

Asphalt    

The lightweight and sleek Control Asphalt Paw is made from the same material as car tires for excellent grip.  The Control Asphalt Paw provides maximum grip throughout all stages of the pole cadence and can be relied upon whatever the weather conditions.  The paw effectively absorbs pole impact when walking on hard surfaces. It comes as a regular accessory with the Nordic Walking poles. The Asphalt Paw should be removed when used on soft surfaces, such as grass, dirt or sand, exposing the spike tip which works best on the softer surfaces.

Please keep in mind that the Paws gradually wear and should be replaced when there is very little surface material left. Replacement Paws can be obtained by contacting: sales@NordicKiwi.co.nz
