Ski poles
When you stand at the top of the slope with the snow-covered terrain stretched out before you, it's not just your skis that are crucial for your skiing experience. Your ski poles also play an important role in this regard, as they not only provide support but are essential for your balance and control.

Secondskis.com is your shortcut to the best ski poles for you
At Secondskis.com, we offer a wide selection of ski poles from recognized brands, designed to meet the skill levels and preferences of different skiers. Here you can find the best ski poles for you based on the following parameters:
- Size / length
- Material
- Brand
- Other preferences and wishes (budget, design, etc.)
The right length of ski poles
One of the most important things to consider when buying ski poles is the size. The ideal length / size of the ski poles depends on your height.
A good rule of thumb is that the ski pole should be long enough for you to stand upright with a 90-degree angle at the elbows when you place the ski pole in the snow. The ski poles are too long if you feel that your shoulders are being pulled up when you stand upright with the ski poles in the snow.
You find the right size ski pole by doing the following:
- Stand upright
- Hold your elbow at a 90-degree angle
- Measure the length from your elbow to the ground
- Add 5 cm (to account for the fact that while skiing you are wearing both skis and ski boots)

Ski poles made of carbon, composite, or aluminum
When it comes to choosing ski poles, you as a skier face the choice between different materials, each with its own advantages. The most commonly used materials for ski poles are carbon, composite, and aluminum.
Carbon poles are known for their modest weight and stiffness, providing skiers with increased responsiveness and power transfer. Composite poles often combine different materials to achieve a balance between strength, flexibility, and weight. Aluminum poles are durable and offer good stability and strength for skiers in varying terrain.
