What are ski poles and why are they important?

Ski poles must be strong enough to withstand intensive use, light enough not to tire your arms and flexible enough to withstand heavy falls. They provide balance, support in turns and help maintain rhythm while skiing.

How to choose the correct pole length

To measure the appropriate length:

1. Stand in your ski boots or shoes with a similar sole
2. Hold the poles upside down- the grip touches the floor
3. Grasp the pole just below the basket- the top of your thumb should touch the basket
4. Your elbow should be at 90°for the perfect length

Available materials and technologies

For beginners:

Any ski poles that are the correct length are sufficient for learning basic technique.

For intermediate and advanced skiers:

Premium materials for a better strength-to-weight ratio and increased durability in varied conditions.
 

Wrist straps - Correct use

Most poles use rubberised nylon straps on the grip for:

• Retaining the poles if you lose your grip during turns
• Safety during falls- the poles stay with you and do not stick into the snow

The correct way to use them:

1. Pass your hand through the strap
2. Place your thumb and the grip over the strap
3. Wrap around the pole for optimal grip

Important tip: Try the straps with ski gloves to check that they are easy to put on and take off in the mountains.

Modern innovations

Detachable straps- durable loops that click into and out of the grip for quick transitions, ideal for:
