How Long should my poles be. . .

i like my midget poles, i took the poles that fit me when i was ten, (about 4 8 or so) and cut them down 2 inches (im 5 3 now)
 
if you hold your biecep peice of your arm vertical and put ur forearm or somtin on a 90 degree angle (so its horizontal and then put the poles in ur hand and hold them on the grips verticaly(down) they shoule i think be like around the ground. or somtin i dono its all preference
 
Just go to a big ol' rack of ski poles and see what ones you feel comfortable holding, then ditch those and go with something like 2 inches shorter.
 
no. flip the pole upside down. now, grab under the basket, and put the grip on the ground. your bicep should be vertical, and your forarm should be horizontal. a little smaller is a better than too long, but honestly, poles that fit are still better than ones too long or small.
