Hello
My kids have been skiing for 3-4 seasons and so far have not used poles. I think it is now the time to introduce them to poles.
One child just turned 9 and is 54" or 4'6" and the other child will be turning 7 soon and is 4'4".
Since they are a pole size apart I was thinking I could order two pairs of fixed length poles and then the younger child will grow into the older child's poles.
I then learned about adjustable poles.
Is this a better way for me to go? Any pros and cons? Recommendations?
Also I want to be sure the pole grip is a good bit smaller. My kids wear mittens and it doesn't look like they have much palm surface area to hold onto much?
