the best poles still break

By Ranked #102 - Backcountry Ski Poles December 29, 2009

These are the best adjustable poles on the market. They are reliable and easy to use, but they will still break. Buy them. Just don't take them front side and off of big airs and high speed through trees. Don't lean on them too hard, and don't abuse them. I wrecked mine, so now I just use cheap rental poles for skiing where I'm likely to break something.
Great basket, awesome adjustment features, solid construction, comfortable grip, and nice weight.
