Getting the Most Out of It

The strap should carry the push at the end of the stroke, with the hand relaxed on the grip.
- 3Match the basket
Small baskets for groomed piste, larger baskets for powder and off-piste snow.
- 4Handle carbon with care
Carbon shafts are strong in line and vulnerable to crushing. Do not stand poles under a heavy pack.
- 5Dry after every day
Dry the shafts and straps overnight. Salt and meltwater are what corrode aluminium shafts at the tip.
