I am taking a survey and wanted to hear NS's opinion.

What type of grip do you like the best?

a) has finger notches
b) has one finger notch
c) has no finger notches and a large in diameter
d) has no finger notches and a small diameter

And do you like it a hard plastic or a soft rubber?

I love the armada bike pole grips, those or the line skinny grips. I dislike finger slots because it's like having a directional ski. It tells you exactly where to hold it. Fuck that, I hold my poles how I want where I want

Best grips you can get. Nothing beats these. It's a shame Aramada stopped making them, their new ones are complete shit.

Doesn't make a difference to me. I think the ones on my BD adjustable poles have finger notches?

But I see park rats with poles so short that they may as well be holding dildos in their hands (they would probably feel more familiar to them anyways).

The bike grips is a good idea, but I wouldn't pay for bike grips just to replace perfectly good pole grips with them. If they were lying around then sure why not.

drilled a hole in the bar end and passed both ends of the rope through it and tied it off. the extra rope/knot just fits in the pole and the bar end holds it all in der.



and yes, my thumb looks awkwardly adorable.
