well last season, my 1080 poles snapped in half after only 2 uses, so i sent them back for warrenty and i got store credit. just wondering what are some good durable poles, preferably not 2 expensive (nothing over $70). thanks

Forcast for tomorrow: a pinch of genius and a chance of DOOM!!

they're poles. they break. with $70 you can buy two or three pairs and just switch them out when they break

You do pay for what you get. I have broken many poles but the last season and a half I have had Scott Dispatch and they seem to be super durable. I know a wicked bump skier who gets product from scott and hasn't wrecked his poles yet. And he was crashing lots this year learning cork 7. They are super expensive though and I know you don't want that.

poles are like shoelaces. they will always break, but you kinda need them. just take rental poles
