poles are poles for the most part. if they are gonna be just park poles, just steal rentals like 95% of the users of this site. If you really feel the need to buy new poles, then scott WL SL(like posted above) are one of the strongest on the market, but retail for $80+. I just picked up a pair of moment poles(49n, im 6'2") and they are nice so far, only complaint was the shitty grip, so I switched it out with some spare scotts I had laying around
