you can just cut them to the right length with a pipe cutter or hacksaw

If you're 4'11'' I'm gonna assume you've got alot of room to grow.  Just buy some cheap rental poles or something, because you'll outgrow them.

Get armada poles, they are the best by far.

dont spend too much money buying new fancy poles.. they will always break or get lost within a couple of seasons (lost one this past season and broke a pair the season b4). go to a garage sale or ski swap and try to snag some older scott poles.. theyre bombproof, and sometimes have the wraparound grip.. if you want a cool design just use colored electrical tape.
