I just got the empire edition poles from scott. they have pretty tough straps on them and wasnt really digging them. how do I get them off? I'm guessing just cut them off, but i dont want to do that if there's a way to take them off and put them back on, just lemme know if you have any idea how to take the straps off. the grips look like this. http://www.evo.com/ski-poles/scott-empire-2011.aspx#color=34224.Color.Hardgoods_Red_Image.jpg
