Almost perfect!
This is my second pair of 6 speed poles. Lets start at the tip. The tip is round and filed so you have 4 points that make contact with the snow. Works well.
Basket: the standard basket has been beefed up with heavier spokes than the original. This makes it much more durable. Powder baskets come with and work well.
Shaft: The shaft of this pole is amazing. It flexes just enough to absorb shock but remains rigid enough that you can push without losing energy while skating, due to excessive flexing. Super strong!
Grip: Grips are awesome! Super comfortable.
Strap: On this year's model they strap ties into the grip horizontaly instead of vertically. I really like this as the strap lays nicely between the grip and hand while holding the pole. However, that is the only good point to this strap. K2 went from a 3/4" strap, in previous years, and replaced it with a 1/2" strap. Thus there is less strap supporting the hand under the index finger and thumb. The 1/2" strap then is attatched on one end to a wider support that runs acrossed the back of the hand. The other end of the strap slides through this support. The support bunches up when you place the strap on your wrist and requires constant adjustment if wearing spring weight gloves. K2 should have stayed with the 3/4" strap imo. I went from hating this strap to strongly disliking it. If you skate with your hands gripping the top of the pole, hold on tight because the strap will be off of your wrist in a flash.
