Fixed poles

The use of sturdy ski poles is essential to maintain balance, stability, and control when skiing. Here are some key benefits and tips on how to choose the right fixed ski poles:

  • Advantages of solid ski poles:
    • Stability and balance: Fixed ski poles have a constant length and provide stability and balance during turns and descents.
    • Light weight: Many fixed ski poles are designed to be lightweight, which reduces fatigue and increases overall skiing performance.
    • Durability: Fixed sticks are often more durable because they do not have adjustable mechanisms that can be susceptible to wear and tear.
    • Price: Fixed ski poles are generally more cost-effective compared to their adjustable counterparts.
  • How to choose solid ski poles:
    • Material: poles are usually made of durable materials such as aluminium or carbon fibre. Aluminium is sturdy and cost-effective, while carbon fibre offers light weight.
    • Length: the ideal length of the poles depends on your height and skiing style. As a general rule of thumb, your elbow should form a 90-degree angle when you hold the pole with the tip on the ground.
    • Basket size: the larger baskets are suitable for powder skiing, while the smaller ones are suitable for groomed slopes.
    • Diameter the diameter of the poles can affect its stiffness. Larger diameter of the pole tend to be sturdier, but can be heavier.

Correctly chosen solid ski poles contribute significantly to a pleasant and safe skiing experience.
