I’m 6’ 2” and I’m having a hard time finding a non adjustable pole that would fit me, any recommendations?

Why don’t you like adjustable poles? I tend to like shorter or longer poles on the fly depending on what I am doing

My adjustable poles are K2 lockjaw. I like composite poles because they don’t get bent banging snow off your boots or whatever. If I was skiing park I would just grab shitty pair of rental poles out of the lost and found or whatever because aluminum isn’t going to last

Most brands makes poles up to 135 cm in non adjustable poles. I got the faction CT poles and love them. They seem pretty durable. The J skies poles got a warranty so iff they break you get new ones. Never had them but that is a nice bonus.
