Hey, im starting to get good at park skiing now and can hit alot of things now and do alot of tricks. my problem is i dont know how long of poles i should be using. im six foot and have normal poles for my height but whenever im in the park most people have really small poles compaired to me.  can someone tell me what size of poles i should be using?

When I extend my arms straight down by my side, my poles just touch my hands.

Are the people with smaller poles twelve? but seriously, just go no poles. If you can do well without poles, you will be a better skier when you use poles IMO.
