POLES SIZE CHART

Ski poles should be chosen to match one’s height (A). A simple formula for this is (A) x 0.7.

Another way to determine the appropriate alpine-skiing pole length is a practical test. To do this, simply flip the ski pole upside down with the grip on the floor and the top of your hand touching the basket (the disc-like object above the tip). If the grips are now on the ground, one’s forearm and upper arm should form a right angle. This accounts for the fact that the ski pole will sink into the ground as far as the basket allows.

The table above shows length orientation values ​​for adults. When in doubt, choose the longer pole length, as the pole shaft can be shortened easily.

BACKLAND FR

The Atomic Backland FR is a telescopic ski pole to go with Atomic Bent Chetler and wider Backland skis. It’s been designed and developed with the help of freeski legend Chris Benchetler. A good freeride pole needs to keep you light, nimble and focused on the job. So Atomic has made it from lightweight aluminum alloy, given it a bike-inspired Freeride grip that won’t slip and an 85mm powder basket for better floatation. It’s got a handy built-in ski-binding screwdriver for adjustments and repairs on the move. The pole also has a carbide tip to protect against rocks and trees, and you can adjust it from 110cm to 130cm.
