Poles or no poles?

poles muddaa fucker! i tried to ski without poles for a day and it was a nightmare! you dont notice when you have them, but you defiantly notice when you dont have them!

they also are so useful for lift queues!
 
idc if op is a troll

I'll go either way depending on how I'm feeling. If I'm not try anything new or anything I'll go without poles, but fort he majority of the time I use poles.

Also if you think not having poles makes it impossible to ski then you have shitty balance.
 
I think starting out it's a benefit to not use poles. It'll improve you balance and control as you won't have your poles to steady yourself. To the person who says it's hard skiing without them, it might be because you're relying on them too much.

I think i read here that a alot of the top guys started out without poles. Was it tammy W who said the only reason he started using them was because he was getting marked down for not having them in competitions?

"Skiing with no poles is like getting a blowjob from a guy, feels great, until you look down and realize you're gay" - I don't know who wrote that
 
repost. i rock both, i like the style of no poles but sometimes poles sounds appealing! id say i use them 50/50
 
there's this kid who skis at my hill. i'm almost positive that he can't actually ski and he doesn't use poles. his hands are fucking everywhere and it always looks like he's pointing at something.
 
not gonna lie i though oles were the way to go, then itried the no poles one day, never looked back, u feel so free and when ur just cruising its sick
 
Every one was skiing no poles like 3-4 years ago i feel like.. I was actually talking to my buddy last weekend, wondering if the whole "no pole riding" will become popular again. I don't think so...
 
I do both. Just whatever I feel like. When I'm learning new tricks though I don't use them. It's just one more thing to worry about.
 
Really? ANOTHER fucking thread about poles or no poles?

Really though, do whatever the hell you want. Pretty simple concept.
 
When you've mastered no poles, then try the polecam - that's one of the upsides to be had.

People that use a polecam and then one other pole often look like they struggle.
 
I WILL GO EITHER WAY DEPENDING ON WHAT I'M DOING. I LIKE GOING NO POLES TO DO PARK AND STUFF, HOT LAPS BLAH BLAH BLAH, BUT ACTUALLY SKIING POLES ARE BITCHIN LIKE A TRICHIN
