I went through about 4 pairs before I gave up on them, some just fell apart others bent really easily
I never got more than a trip from a pair, I learnt like binos and scopes you get what you pay for with poles, brought a Leki had it for 3 or 4 years now can beat possums with it hook it in tree roots and its still as good as new.
Others may of had better luck but thats my experience, for the record most my gear is macpac I just wouldn't waste any more money on those poles.

Only a cocky would fuck 4 pairs (8poles) before trying something else

Im taking the piss of course brads and I haven't even used mine yet.

I bought mine with the intention of useing them only to steady myself while I regain use of my leg and rebuild strenght in it.

Having never used the pussy sticks before I imagined them only being used as a steadying stick for the frail on uneven terrain and as such not subjected to any real load.?

To be fair was only 4 poles Cam I've only just started using 2
With a fucked knee going down hill one pole gets really loaded up on that side, in some situations if it folded up or gave way it would get interesting
But hey you could die sitting on the couch
