Adult Ski Poles

Adult ski poles come in a variety of styles and materials. There are lightweight carbon fiber poles for the skier or backcountry traveler concerned about weight. Adjustable poles are useful for backcountry skiers as well, because you may want a different length for traversing and hiking versus descending. For the park skiers and mogulers, you’ll generally want a bit of a shorter stick. Most commonly, ski poles are made of an aluminum alloy that puts up the heavy stress they'll receive.
