Excellent Poles!
By Jowens
Ranked #454 - Backcountry Ski Poles
January 9, 2006
I used the originals for about 10 years before they finally broke, probably due to old age and 1000+ miles. These are the replacements for them, and after a fall of hiking and half a winter of snowshoeing and skiing, they're holding up just fine. My only gripe is that I'd like it if the anodizing was a bit tougher. But seriously, you can't beat the quality or function of these things for the price.
