I am looking for walking poles as central pole for my shangri la 3 shelter. The walking poles should be able to folded to around 40 cm in length to fit into my osprey exos 46 pack. I travel a lot so hope everything can be contained inside the pack instead of attaching to the pack. I currently have black diamond ultra distance but they are too short(I have tried strapping the two poles together with strings but just found it's not that secure). I have also used another black diamond poles which are long enough with the original extender but folded length is too long at 60 cm, so have to attach them outside my pack.

Have you looked into the Pole Jacks offered by Ruta Locura? They come in lengths up to 16" which should be enough to convert just about any hiking pole into a pole tall enough for the SL3. IT would probably one of the more weight and price conscious ways of getting what you need at just over an ounce and $16.

Thanks for the info. Just not sure if the diameter of the tube fits the pole tip of my poles.
