The use of shorter poles dooming us to being hunch backs?

[daOyster]

With park poles becoming shorter every year now, half of us still use them to push off with. Are we all doomed to become hunch backs as we start to lean over more and more to push off with our poles?

 

[Stickity]

or we could just develop incredible no-pole steeze

 

[edai]

My approach. I have impeccable posture.

 

[roddy116]

lol i dont think that we are hunched over long enough to getting a hunch back.

 

[daOyster]

Or maybe we will develop massive guerrilla steeze with our every-day tasks.

bend with the knees, son

 

[roddy116]

or sit in the backseat

gorilla steeze COOKING. gorilla steeze SHITTING. gorilla steeze SHOPPING. gorilla steeze FUCKING.

 

[daOyster]

Imagine the grease burns from making bacon.

 

[84891jnf92048]

thats because you're 10 and haven't had time to get hunched over yet.

 

[I.Am.Lorde.]

shit. just. got. real. I think we are going to have to see a rebuttal from said 10 year old

 

[NinetyFour]

Mmmmm Bacon.

i have decent sized poles for park, but ive really gotten into gorilla steeze. its just so fun

 

[84891jnf92048]

that must look really weird, all hunched over with huge sticks sticking out on either side of uou

 

[edai]

Well nobody really gets hunched until they're pushing 30, if you do you probably have some serious problems you need to deal with.

If you're spending enough time in the park with mini poles to develop a hunch, you're doing it wrong.

 

[I.Am.Lorde.]

is that a gay joke... haha jk

 

[AGOF]

i use 40 inch poles, not long by any means, but not like retarded park rat short

 

[Oldmann1584]

buy longers poles then.....

 

[Peter.]

hahahahahah you definitely look like an idiot if you are trying to look steezy

 

[AGOF]

i like to be able to pole plant.

 

[250r]

yea thats not even that long, its what i use for park. I broke my park poles so now i just always use my BD touring poles, park days ill have it at 100cm (40"), in the trees 105cm, and on big lines 110ish

 

[WI_Personallty]

I have my polls cut to 39 or 40 inches and tom me its like perfect height to where I don't hunch to push and they don't get in the way.

 

[kingskier]

i saw someone at this competition recently that literally had 30 cm tall poles, granted he wasnt very tall but he couldnt even touch the ground with them

 

[daOyster]

Mine are around 40cm I think but they fit perfect for me where I just have to bend like an inch down to touch if I put my hands on top of the poles. This was more aimed at the kids that have poles like 30 cm.

 

[Malcolm]

Just push off with your palms, it's like having two pimp canes.

 

[.Tom.]

If this isn't in someones sig within 10 minutes I'll be disappointed and shocked.

 

[daOyster]

That's exactly what I usually do.
