What do you expect? All they sell is poles. There isn't much to say.

No need to waste money building a SICKTER website for no reason. The poles will sell themselves.

How much are they? Everyone has them but wtf is the difference between poles besides length i guess. I've been usin the same poles for 6 years, they're bent like hell, they suck, but they still work

well they are selling out everywhere, so I dont think they really need to hype the product any more.

i don't think originality has anything to do with it, its all just marketing. buy from whichever company's advertisements affect you the most. that is the real spirit of love. the real spirit of taste. the spirit of capitalism.

well, i'm not sure how i feel about the whole idea of it. But putting that aside, i agree with some of the posts above about the look of the site. It really doesnt do anything for me. The site's not visually appealing at all. I totally expected it to look a lot cooler. It's very blah. Courier New?

If you go to Anthonys first entry on the Joystick site. you'll get this. I personally think its a great site. and im more interested in seeing Anthony newest peices of work then 1,000,000 pics of the same poles. go to jibij.com for info and pics.

Hi/Hello,

Well, this is the new Joystick site.

I wanted to create something different in our over hyped, and over manufactured culture.

Through this site you will be able to see a small part of what Joystick truly represents, and what our world is.

I could write that Joystick is friends, family, love, skiing, longing, ups, downs, art, music, experience, learning, growing, struggling, and a whole host of other things, but you will be able to see that pretty soon.

Take care,

anT

yeah weights ranging all the way from light to super light, and strength ranging from 'they bend when I fall on them' to 'they break when I fall on them'. I use mismatching rental poles and I dont think it effects my skiing.

it's not originality that annoys me, it's the fact that there isn't even any info on where to buy the damn things or how to contact the company, etc. it would be nice if a company's website would actually have some info about the product they make and sell.

even though i don't like the sight, word of mouth is the best type of advertising possible and he has already got a hold of that.

I really like the page acctually there isnt really that much to know about the product it's just poles. It's more about the people who use the product rather than the product itself

I don' have them but from what I hear they're alot lighter and stronger. One reason to spend the money on them is to support them since they are a big part of our freeskiing community.
