Finding the correct ski pole length is crucial for optimal performance. Utilize the angle rule: flip a ski pole upside down, and grasp it just below the basket. Your elbow should comfortably rest near your hip with a 90-degree arm angle.
If poles aren't available, use a tape measure with your elbow bent at 90 degrees, adding two inches for snow submersion.
(For park skiing, shorter poles aid balance and avoid interference.)
Refer to size chart for guidance.
