VIA Ski Poles

It just works

Have been using these poles for a week now. For a reasonable price, they just work. I prefer to go leashless and the leashes go on and off easily (in a good way), the handle is comfortable and practical for flipping binding parts etc. The section on the pole for grabbing when offset is long grippy warm and comfortable. I also used the carbon version and I don't think the extra money is worth it for the carbon. Haven't used the basket in deep powder unfortunately but they seem fine. Previously had Black Diamond Traverse which the airline lost...

Light and strong

I love these poles. They're very light and I've found them to be strong and durable. The adjustability is handy even for resort skiing because anyone in our family can pick them up and adjust them to their perfect length.

Versatile poles

These poles are great for both uphill and downhill. Good ergonomic grip. Wrist straps are easy to adjust. The locking mechanism feels really solid. Powder baskets are very well sized. Overall, I’m satisfied with the design and functionality. I might upgrade to the carbon version in the future for lighter weight.
