I picked up a new pair poles and they came with two sets of baskets. One was the snowflake type and the other is the small cap type. So I thought it would be good to find out some of your ideas on baskets.
When answering this tell me snowflake or cap type basket and why?
Thanks
Remember the Scott "Pointless"? No basket or point, just a 1" diameter metal inverted cup where the point is on other ski poles.. Looked like a wrist JARRING idea to me. Someone here has some, @Dave Petersen or @Doug Briggs ???

It is Doug.
Yes, it is.
And yes they were. Pointless - no tips but WHY? The jarred the whole arm as they were springy. While they are a great addition to a few outfits, they really are not fun to ski with.

The gloves were a mistake. I had two vintage gloves in the truck. Both were rights.
Too much!I'll retro race you someday. I'll go with my split tails and Lange XLs. How fun that would be!
