Scott Metric Ski Poles
The Scott Metric poles are a great choice for your daily driver. Poles can often be overlooked in terms of ski gear but that should be far from the case. Since your poles are the first thing that touches your hands, they’re really an extension of your arms, leading you down the hill. When your hands and arms are first things going down the hill, your body and your weight will follow. If your hands get back, your whole body will follow. As a result, your skiing will suffer. Poles may seem like a silly thing to improve your skiing, but they’re really not. If you have a pair of poles that feels natural and light in your hands, you’re going to be a better skier for it, it’s as simple as that. The Scott Metric pole balances all of those things. Built with an 18 mm aluminum shaft, the poles are light and stiff and will hold up to some serious use. The rubberized grips keep your hands firmly locked to the handle, allowing you some freedom of movement and not having to death grip the poles. Much like your golf grip or a baseball bat, you don’t want to be choking your poles to death. There’s a fine line, and having a tactile grip goes a long way in ensuring proper pole grip and plant placement. The baskets also strike a good balance between being aerodynamic enough to cut through the wind with being wide enough to not lose your plant in the powder or soft snow.
