I was wondering if anyone could suggest me some good poles to buy, mine broke and I ordered the Armada ar6s. The wrong poles were sent to me, and so I had to send them back. 2 days later they sent me an email saying that they are out of stock.. so I was just having another think if there are any better poles?

Thanks.

any of the scott freestyle series are good.

ive got a pair of the team issue's and a pair of the newcastles - as far as poles go they are good.

Can you buy the parts seperately if they break, or do you have to buy the whole set again?

Joysticks.  Maybe not anything crazy special, but mine have been holding up great and you're supporting a sick ski-specific company with an awesome owner that puts out free movies.  Ha ha.

Scott poles are sick. but the truth is you don't need to spend shit on poles, just get some shitty light ones, and either just ski with those or customize them

I'm rocking Rossi SAS ones right now.  But seriously they're like the least important piece of equipment.  Just get whatever you think looks cool.
