Manufacturer defect
One of the poles came with poorly formed plastic threads for the basket and the sleeve the basket screws on to. I ended up having to glue the basket on instead of just being able to screw it in place.

Light, sturdy and affordable
Got these to replace my old ski touring poles after one of the clamps broke. These are very light for aluminum poles, the grip feels great and extends far down the pole, and the straps are easily adjustable and comfortable. My only complaint is that they don't collapse very small, but that's not a big deal for me.

Sturdy
I have not had a chance to actually use them but the poles are light but feel very sturdy. Would recomend. Im 6 Foot 185lb and there is a little more extension before the stop line.

Light and durable
Good set of poles for the price. More durable than carbon. I just wish they would contract more.

Vapor AL 2 Ski Poke
I took these with me up to the bowls at breckenridge, vail, and keystone and they performed great. Skiing steeps becomes much easier with the extended grip and then being retractable makes it easy to carry and put on the backpack.

Vapor AL 2
Light and stiff. Love the extended grip foam handle! Easy to adjust hand position to a comfortable level no matter the skin track angle. Built tough and taking punishment with no damage.

Light and grippy
Nice light adjustable poles with a long grip for side hilling. Only thing I would change is making the ribs on the lower grip more defined for extra traction.

Perfect poles for all-mountain skiing
Tough, reliable, and light ! And the red fits perfectly my helio 95 skis ! I would have preferred a metal lock for adjustment instead of plastic.

3.5 stars
This review could have been a 5 star review IF these poles had removable pole straps. I do not always want to ski with pole straps, but on occasion I do. Otherwise, these poles are fantastic.
