drill two small holes in the pole, drop some bolts in them and do the same thing to flat piece of wood and use the flat adhesive mount...     it worked for me, play around a bit with it youll figure something out

I saw some dudes at okemo the other day using a lacrosse shaft with the flat adhesive stuck to the wider flat part.  It seemed to work for them and i think its what im going to do soon with my bros old stick

I made one out of scrap aluminum, JB Weld, and one of the plastic 3M mounts. They call me MacGyver.

goto a local hardware store. buy a big washer. unscrew the top of your pole. place washer and then screw top of pole back together with washer on top. then use a flat adhesive mount and place on top of pole.

also the handlebar mount or seat post mount works great too but this is quick and easy and cheap

Obviously you would do this with an old pole, or use the adhesive on top of the grips.
