sometimes they have some good ones for cheap at like thrift shops or little ski shops.. If youre looking to spend a little on quality, I would suggest joystick, I have had mine for years and they held up really well

I’m 5’10 and use the Line Wallschtick in 38”. I think they’re just short enough to stay out of the way but long enough to still function

I got some line skis with the grab tab I’d sell for the low. They’re like 40” or sumthin.

Bought some used poles and cut them down to the size I wanted with a saw. Then I just duct taped bmx grips to em and they work perfectly

Jesus you kids either lean down so far or have whack balance on skis. I’m 5’8” and ski a 115cm/46” and that’s considered “short”
