I have a set of armada poles with no baskets and I can’t figure out where to buy replacement ones. They don’t use the standard press on or threaded ones. Anyone know where I can order some?

do yourself a favour and cut a pair from a free ski swap bin down to size.

someone told me to do this years ago when I was wondering the same thing, and I said fuck that lol.

im sure you will too, but remember my post--- let it haunt you

go on the days when people bring gear in to register. Any poles that get rejected (pretty much all used poles) end up in a bin infront of the doors usually. People don't want to hold onto their used stuff, so if they can't sell it, they chuck it there

Bump! Old Stuuuuuuuuuu here is right, my Armada poles don't use standard baskets. Anyone have an old set kicking around they want to sell me. Or a workaround?

I ended up putting black diamond tips on them so I could just use regular baskets. I think you can buy them most places or just find a broken set to steal them off of.
