Flagship model "Free FAST-α" has a new design

SINANO has a strong presence in the world of alpine racing and basic skiing. Its telescopic poles account for 80-90% of the technical competition. SINANO's "Easy Lock Metal" technology allows you to adjust the lever with 40% less force than before, and its high center of gravity makes it easier than ever to swing the pole

The graphic design changes every year, making it a "seasonal limited edition" item for each season, but this season the highly visible primary colors of red, yellow, blue, and black have been added to highlight the athlete's brilliance on the snow, bringing the total to five colors, including white

Developed with the desire to support juniors aiming for the top in technical competitions, the "Free FAST-α [Jr.]" is made of the same materials and construction as the regular adult model. It maintains the same high quality, and the length can be adjusted to suit not only the event but also the child's growth

Next season's new character is the "Snow Penguin"

Following on from the wolf, eagle, ice shark, and snow lion, the penguin has now been added to the snow-related animal design series. This is not just any penguin, but a brave "first penguin" who will be the first to jump into the dangerous ocean, a design for those who take on new challenges

Using Shinano's unique printing technique, the shaft is printed with clear, photographic-like graphics with depth

The best value BC model has been recolored in a sophisticated blue

FAST BC Carbon | 100-135cm Weight: Approx. 295g/piece Load capacity: 40.5kgf ¥16,500 (tax included)

The "FAST BC Carbon" for backcountry use is a telescopic pole, and is priced at 15,400 yen, which is probably the cheapest telescopic carbon pole with a snow basket in the industry. By setting the price so that entry-level users can experience the benefits of carbon poles, the company hopes to make it affordable

It's built to be quite strong and sturdy, with a load capacity of 40.5 kg. While the swing balance may feel a little heavy, the T-grip allows for stable kick turns, making it a safe choice for beginners who are unfamiliar with backcountry skiing. The powder snow basket is large and the spikes are long, so it won't sink into deep snow and is easy to use

Grip that is easy to hold even for mitten users
Another advantage of the T-grip is that it can be pressed from above
Swing balance is also excellent
