Adjustable pole mechanisms are notorious for loosening up and developing slop over time. The Folkrm Wyeast Ski Poles aren't about that life. These fixed length poles take care of business with extended EVA grips for comfortable side-hilling and a handy top cap hook for adjusting your heel risers. If you prefer a longer pole for backcountry skliing, Folkrm recommends sizing 5-10cm longer than usual.
