Mountain King says: 

Weighing in at just 114g (120 cm), the Mountain King SkyRunner Ultra RaceDay poles are engineered for serious athletes who demand the absolute best. These ultralight poles are among the lightest in their class, making them the perfect companion for technical terrain, ultra-distance races, and high-performance trail running.

Crafted from 100% Toray 800 carbon fiber, the SkyRunner Ultra poles are designed with strength, durability, and performance in mind. Whether you’re scaling rocky ascents or descending steep trails, these poles offer the lightweight flexibility and rigidity needed to tackle any obstacle with speed and confidence. Mountain King Trail Running Poles are foldable and collapsible poles, making them ideal for runners who need to stow them away during sections of the trail where poles aren’t required.

Our Verdict

The SkyRunner Ultra RaceDay Poles from Mountain King are built specifically for trail and mountain running—not hiking poles for heavy loads, but tools for speed and stability. They’re impressively light at just 114g for the 120cm version without feeling fragile. The carbon shafts are stiff and responsive, and the four-section foldable design packs down to just 32 cm—ideal for stashing in a running vest between climbs.

The EVA grips are basic but comfortable enough for high-tempo efforts, and the wrist loops stay secure without needing adjustment mid-run. These aren’t poles for leaning on, but for rapid pole plants over loose scree, punchy alpine ascents or when your footing needs just that extra bit of help.
