i have these poles right now and the grips are reallllly thick.  would it be good to grind the grips down for more room for your hand to grab? ive been jamming my fingers n shit with them.

ditch the poles!

really though I dont see why not just use a dremmel or somethin and grind it down a bit, I definately know what you're talking about if there's anything weird about my poles it throws me off a ton.

i would just look into a new pair of poles but if you can't and grinding down the grips can work than why not?
