clown poles

Try a little compressed air. I've used it before on stubborn ATV grips.

After hearing and reading about the benefits of shorter poles in the bumps, I tried out my wife's 46" poles this weekend and loved them. I'm 6'2" and my poles have been 52" for as long as I can remember. Putting our gear away last night I tucked her poles away in my ski bag...might have to bring those along for mogul days when she's not skiing. If I decide I like them, maybe I'll buy some non-Roxy short poles of my own (not worth cutting mine down...they're on their last leg as it is).

Having never cut my own poles is there an easy / recommended way of removing the grips? Mine are 46", I'm 5'8 and am thinking of going down to 44"

Alpinezone stimulates the economy again. I had to swing over to the local shop to pick up some skis. I read this thread and figured I'd check out some poles.

figured what the heck and went with a 42.

.....and to further stimulate the local economy, I got my Kryptons remolded. Always felt they were a hair too tight in the toe box. seems perfect now.
