does any body know of a good pole that won't break or bend when its landed, has a good swing weight and isn't too expensive?

Leki poles are good on the not bending thing, and ther pretty light too. o yah. and they got that siiiiiick trigger system.



'Today i took a bus back home from town and this guy comes to sit next to me and he was so on pills or whatever.. anyways he pulls up a bag of pills and asks me do i want to get wasted and im like 'no thanks'.. so he looks a bit mad and puts the bag away, next he pulls up a box of chocolate-chip cookies and asks: Do ya atleast wanna have a fucking cookie' ' -Pekkis

something like the Leki trigger system, but better.

flex, not bend or break.
light, not heavy or 'ok'

Get Leki Freezes. They're fairly light, good swing weight, and they hold up quite well.

^^I used to have Leki freezes and I really liked them. But my snowboarder friend crashed into me last week and one of them snapped in half

scott makes good poles, but any pole is going to break with enough abuse.

Leki make some good poles, but don't spend heaps on poles, they are so easily broken

definately steal the rentals, then if only one breaks or bends it doesnt matter an there is going to be a matching pole you can go pick up

Steal rental poles! Or just find whatever's cheap. That's my mindset on poles. But Goode are supposed to be...uh...good.
