Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

Hi everyone
About to pull the trigger, still undecided among these models:

Leki TOUR STICK VARIO CARBON V

https://www.leki.com/en_CA/skitour-snowshoe/poles/3302/tour-stick-vario-carbon-v/

Komperdell Carbon Tour 4 (I understand Jones poles are these rebranded)

https://www.komperdell.com/en/poles/trekking/produkt.php?id=194_2003_02

MSR: Dynalock Ascent Carbon
https://climbinggearreviewsuk.wordpress.com/2018/12/14/msr-dynalock-ascent-poles/

any suggestion? what do you think of Leki strap system? Any particular reason to chose one brand/model or not?
thanks

@lorcar, I'll add Black Diamond Expedition Poles into the mix.

Bought a pair of them about 10years ago and still using them now. Splitboarding in Winter and hiking in Summer.

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I'm with a snowboarding mate touring tomorrow and will report back as to his latest equipment, as he always has the best gear!

 Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I've also got the Black Diamonds. They slide down together nicely for stowing away and come with big powder baskets.

They are also very light.
