Before You Buy XC Ski Poles
A quality pair of nordic ski poles is essential for skiing and they are a crucial element in your cross country skiing. Poles need to be lightweight and need to be the right length for you. Nordic poles that are used for skating or freestyle technique are generally longer than classic cross country ski poles, and poles for racing tend to be stiffer than poles used for recreational skiing. It is essential to determine the correct type of ski poles for you before you purchase the ski poles.
