Swix TBS Pendulum Basket Kit

No, this kit is specifically designed for Swix cross-country ski poles that feature the proprietary TBS (Triac Basket System) tool-less attachment. It will not fit poles from other manufacturers or older Swix models that require glue or threaded attachments.

The TBS system is designed for quick, tool-less changes. Simply twist the basket to unlock it from the pole shaft, pull it off, and snap the new basket into place until you feel it click, which takes only a few seconds.

Each basket design—Carbon Leaf, Carbon Paw, and Carbon Claw—is optimized for different snow conditions. Having all three allows you to adapt your pole's surface area and support based on whether you are skiing on hard-packed, groomed, or softer, fresh snow.

While the kit is versatile, the white baskets included are intended for standard groomed conditions. For extremely icy or hard-crusted surfaces, you should avoid using the white baskets to prevent premature wear or damage to the edges.

The baskets are engineered to balance weight and aerodynamics, which reduces the swing weight of your poles. This allows for a smoother, more efficient return during your ski stroke, helping you maintain rhythm and conserve energy over longer distances.
