Mountain King UTMB Chamonix SkyRunner Edge Test Run

Get ready to elevate your alpine game. As the world’s trail running community gathers in Chamonix for the 2026 HOKA UTMB Mont-Blanc (August 24–30), we are giving you the exclusive chance to get hands-on with the future of mountain performance.

We’re officially inviting you to come and demo the all-new Skyrunner Edge—the ultra-lightweight carbon pole that’s redefining efficiency on the world's most iconic trails.

Engineered for the extremes of the Mont-Blanc massif, the Skyrunner Edge is built from high-grade RDC carbon fiber, weighing in at a mere 138g. It features the revolutionary Edge Clip integrated glove system, allowing you to:

• Power Up: Achieve seamless energy transfer on the grueling climbs toward Col du Bonhomme.
• Snap In & Out: Transition instantly on technical descents without fumbling with traditional straps.
• Pack Fast: Experience the most compact 4-section "Z-pole" design yet, perfect for your race vest quiver.

Come find us at the Mountain King booth in the heart of Chamonix. Whether you’re gearing up for the full UTMB, taking on the CCC, or just soaking in the atmosphere, stop by to:

1. Test the tech: Feel the weight (or lack thereof) for yourself.
2. Expert Fitting: Get sized by the team that hand-builds these poles in the UK.
3. Live Demos: See the Edge Clip system in action and try it on your own terms.

Don’t just watch the elites—train like them. See you in the mountains!

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
