Claim 17:
18. An adjustable grip system for use with a trekking pole comprising:
a first portion having a first end configured to receive a shaft therein, and a second end of the first portion interconnected with a first end of a second portion at a joint, wherein the joint is configured to permit the rotation of the second portion in relation to the first portion about a first axis;
a first locking mechanism configured to constrain the rotation of the second portion in relation to the second portion;
the first locking mechanism comprising a first button and a second button, wherein depressing the buttons disengages the first locking mechanism thereby allowing the rotation of the second portion in relation to the first portion, and wherein forcing the buttons laterally outward engages the first locking mechanism, thereby constraining the rotation of the second portion in relation to the first portion;
a first compressive spring configured to axially force the buttons laterally outward;
the second portion further comprises an axial member extending away from the first end of the second portion;
a third portion comprising a grip;
the third portion is interconnected with the axial member wherein the third portion is configured to slide longitudinally along the axial member, and wherein the third portion is configured to rotate about a second longitudinal axis of the axial member;
a second locking mechanism configured to constrain the rotation of the third portion in relation to the second portion when the third portion is longitudinally forced toward the joint; and
a second compressive spring configured to force the third portion slidably toward the joint.
