How to choose your cross-country ski poles?
Choosing the right size of cross-country ski poles is essential for skiing properly.

For classic cross-country skiing: the poles are smaller.
They can be made of:
Aluminium they will be sturdy and heavy = ideal for beginners,
Fibreglass: they will be lighter, but more fragile,
Carbon fibre and other materials: very light and rigid.
