    I ski with bent poles...

    ...and love 'em!

    I know bigtrubs skis with bent poles too but mine were custom made by me over many years.

    Last weekend Conundrum saw the final touches on one of them.

    This weekend I managed to get the bend on the other one perfect.

    One gives more reach downhill and the other now shortens the uphill reach. Great for double fall line runs!!!

    I know most of you want your poles straight for straight down fall line runs but my custom bent poles work just fine in that terrain too.

    Here is a pic of my poles.


    Anyone else got some custom/modified poles?

    edit: shit that pic was too small...I will work on getting a bigger one up soon.

    Mine were custom lost in the blackcomb daylots 2 weekends ago. I now ski with carbon fibre poles after breaking cheapo Scott poles the day after I bought them.
    Believe.
