Patent-pending Vi-Brake grips were designed from the ground up to reduce shock-energy transfer. The secret is Vi-Brake's 360° all-axis dampening gel held within an ergonomically molded grip. Vi-Brake insulates the grip from the pole in all directions unlike regular single-axis linear spring shocks that only move one way. The result is reduced stress on the hand and wrist for more hours of comfortable trekking.

Easton Vi-Brake™ technology reduces the uncomfortable vibration that is transferred to your hand. Vi-Brake™ has a 360° all-axis gel which isolates the grip from the pole unlike single-axis linear spring shocks which only move in one direction.
