Re: Lets talk about your pole..s
Also have Asnes Ingstad, very well made. Bomber.
Have BD Alpine Carbon Corks, find they don't extend long enough for me for cross-country, only go to 130, maybe 135. Not even long enough for downhill for me at 6'1".
Also have Fisher BCX adjustable poles, like those a fair bit.
Probably the ultimate would be the Asnes adjustable poles . . .

Re: Lets talk about your pole..s
Straight poles are the new adjustables... I prefer them; I made a neoprene grip lower when I am going downhill. Perfect, no hassle poles... I've got all kinds of em. One day, my gf got hers stolen at the resort... Being a gentleman, I gave her mine and used straight ones (Swix tradition). Since then I am always using straight poles; shorter ones at the resort and Swix trad in the BC.
