Most durable backcountry poles

Most of them will eventually break.

I've got some Black Diamond traverse poles and just bought a bunch of spair lower shaft for 10$ each on their website.

Looking for some very durable Backcountry telescoping poles.

I have the Line EP Paintbrushes and they've held up extremely well. However, I wouldn't spend too much of your money on poles just bc they inevitably break/bend after a season or two of skiing
 
I've used g3 aluminum poles the past two seasons for touring, inbounds skiing, park, and pre/post season jib setups and they have held up great. Other poles I have had in the past have bent doing almost nothing to them, but the g3 poles have been great, no damage whatsoever. I have only used the aluminum poles so I can't speak on the durability of the carbon ones. My buddy has the line paintbrush poles and they are pretty solid too.
 
I had the moment ones for a few years, really good till the clips broke and i lost the bottom half of both. I've been using leki helicons since then and they are bomber, best poles I've had.

I've had the same pair of Black Diamond poles for literally 20 years. These were made in Italy, but they don't make them there anymore.
