good poles

Rating:*****

These are tough fixed length poles with a nice swing weight, though, surprisingly, I find the swing weight on my adjustable BD carbon fiber poles - with powder baskets - to be just a bit better. Go figure. (Perhaps the added weight of the Kevlar the bottom of the fixed length's shafts?)

I love BD adjustable poles, and these fixed length are a very good option for resort days. Oh, and they look sweet, too.

Nice work BD.

Sick poles

Rating:*****

I though carbon poles was a bit much, but oh well. They're solid and work well. Probably overkill though. The Strap is actually really nice and much smoother than other strap systems.

Let it snow

Rating:*****

Just what I was looking for. Seems light, strong. Can't say much more without some snow to test them out.
