Nahh, no pole skiing is the way to go I reckon. It looks different, and we're sorta biting slalom and mogul skiers, I mean, why do yoou need them? It is 10 times easier to grab. My mate went down and skied with jossi Wells, and he wasn't using them, so my mate stopped using them, and told me to try it and i rekon it awesome. Looks way better.

i dunno. we always made drop pole runs, and i barely noticed a differnece. i could do all the same shit as i could with um. i dont really see the big deal about it. its nice to not have to hold on to anything, but at the same time it gets annoying in a way.
