These are the same as the Komperdell Ultralite C3 poles.
Lee,
Soften the glue that holds the tips on by soaking them in near boiling water. Should slide off pretty easily. I've done it on a pair of REI Peak UL carbon fiber poles and it wasn't a problem. This is all assuming you mean to remove the plastic tip in which the carbine tip is imbedded.

Komperdell instructions for tip replacement.
The inter webs, amazing.
Thanks guys. I did not see the pdf files initially on their site.
I put the end of the tip in a vise, apply heat and twist/pull the shaft out. It usually isn't too difficult.
The hot water worked great. Just heat up some water and let them sit for 5 minutes and they were ready to pull off.
