| I would love to get a hold of one, maybe two if it's 7075 and extra long, so the shaft doesn't taper before the head is installed. Thanks Drew! |

no prob james. a lot of these are rentals from local ski resorts. many are scott brand, super long and in good shape for their age. if anybody knows the faded silver or blue poles with the squiggly pair of lines at the top, then that's what they are. this may mean nothing to most people, but from experience, these poles last forever, i mean a year or so. there are plenty on shorter, super light ones as well.
i paid $50 or so in raw cost and shipping so if anyone wants to buy the whole set from me and sell or distribute them as you like, that would be awesome. make an offer. i'll accept trades for the bigger white head material and exceptional hugs.

Exceptional hugs! Aw!
I'd like to pick one or two out as well. Shorties is fine since I'm one myself. See you at your b&b! |

YES! These poles do last forever. They're not 7075, but there's something about the way they are built that makes these burly as all hell. Sometimes they come in gold as well (Chris had one of them last year in this color). Before I started buying the 7075 poles, I had a silver Scott rental pole that lasted me over a year + three different heads.

Shit, I wish I had seen this before I ordered a set of 3 poles from Fixcraft the other day... I should watch the forum more closely.
Exceptional hugs I can do. |
