So you can't decide whether you want to become king of the groomers today or ruler of the powder empire. Tough decisions like this always end with the Swix Peformer Black Advanced Composites Ski Pole, an ideal choice if you aren't one for commitment. Its Saturn dual basket system allows you to changes roles from sovereign of soft or packed snow; simply remove the powder discs when on groomed trails and keep them in your pocket. With reduced weight and a slimmer profile, your poles will add speed to each swing. When jumping into powderland, re-attach the discs so your poles don't sink into the loose snow. Made of carbon fiber and fiberglass composites, the Performer Black remains extremely light in your hands but can still withstand impacts from ski edges and gates. Designed to fit a wide range of skiing types, the DD5 handle sports an anatomical shape and Swix Add Tab, an anti-drop device that holds to your wrist even during dramatic movement.

Great pole, poor grip, funky sizing....

- I returned this product before using it
I ordered these with some K2s and some BD poles. Not sure I agree with these being positioned or marketed as an alpine/freestyle but honestly these appear like touring poles. There is no lower lip on the grips, and the baskets were kinda small given their use in an alpine setting. These Swix poles were sized at a 125cm which puts them just a touch over 49 inches. The K2 poles I also ordered were 50 inches, yet the SWIX poles were about a half an inch longer? Huh? On the positive they are really nice looking poles and the construction appeared top notch. As Swix is a Norwegian company with their parent office based out of Lillehammer, perhaps their Nordic design traditions aren't conducive to our US western states bump- skiing rebel mentality.
