Description
The LEKI Downhill and SG Rocket 40mm is a compact racing basket for LEKI alpine ski race poles used in Downhill and Super-G disciplines. The Rocket profile keeps drag to a minimum during gate contact while delivering consistent pole plant on groomed and compacted race pistes.
Threads onto LEKI alpine race poles with a standard threaded tip — no tools required. Colour: Neon Yellow. Sold as a pair.
Why it matters on the mountain
- Race geometry for DH and SG — The Rocket's narrow, elongated profile cuts through snow contact with less resistance than a standard basket, without sacrificing the plant stability needed on firm race pistes at speed.
- Tool-less swap at the start — Threads directly onto LEKI alpine race pole tips without tools. Baskets can be changed at the start gate or in the service tent in seconds.
- Sold as a pair — both race poles matched and ready.

HIGHLIGHTS
Rocket Profile ▼
The Rocket shape is designed specifically for DH and SG race conditions — a narrow, elongated basket that minimises resistance through gates while still providing a solid plant on groomed race piste. Wider baskets used in other disciplines would create unnecessary drag at race speed; the Rocket keeps the basket profile out of the way without compromising plant reliability.
Tool-Less Fitting ▼
The Rocket basket threads onto the standard LEKI alpine race pole tip — twist on to fit, twist off to remove. No tools needed, making basket swaps quick at the start gate or in the service area between runs.
Sold as a Pair ▼
Each purchase includes two Rocket baskets — one per pole. Price shown is for the pair.
