I thought one of the benefits of those poles was that they were already short so you didn't have to worry about cutting them down.

i just got a pair of Pins in 38"

looks to me like you just need a super thin alan key. there are 3 little alan screws on the bottom of the grip and one bigger phillips head screw on top. you can try to unscrew those

Then I would return the current model and get the other.  Still amazes me that some kids are coughing up $50 for these poles though, hahaha.

Exactly what I was thinking.  100% BS.  If you did get the poles for free, then that is awesome.
