Grip ruins it

A simple Al shaft paired with quick release baskets and grips. The interchangeable baskets are a nice touch although they do become difficult to change after time, as the red plastic disc becomes deformed. While the releasing grip is nice to adjust the shaft length, after the initial adjustment it is no longer necessary. Armada could have done a better job creating a more ergonomically friendly grip rather then slapping on an MTB inspired grip. Sure they get the job done, they are just ski poles after all, but for 75 bones?! look elsewhere.
