Why is the largest pole line makes a 46in? I want a pole with the grab tabs but at 6’1 isn’t that like really short for me?
 
It’s not that short. Shorter poles bring you more forward on aggressive plants and are less likely to fuck with you. You can put your hands on top for scooting around.

Yeah I was just sharing for the specs, 2022 should come soon or you can probably find the 2021 else where.

Also this is on point, great advice.

For instance I realize you're not that much taller than me (I'm 6) and I ski with adjustable set max to 110 (43in), adjustable poles is a great way to fuck with pole length without commitment, have shorter pole in the park, longer in pow, etc, it's awesome

I actually have an old pair that’s 46 and even though my back hates me if they get used, it does force a more forward and aggressive stance.

I just copped the pin poles in 46 so we’ll see…

Yea for sure. I once forgot my poles but the ladies were in the car and used those and was like hot damn these are great. Agreed it all depends on what you are using them for.

I use shorter poles in the park and longer ones when I’m elsewhere. Definitely benefits to each.
