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 :-)

Hey people,

I'm like 6ft5 do I need 135cm or you think I'll be alright 130?

I really can't be bothered to go to Snow and Rock to turn some upside down and that Very Happy

Or maybe I could measure from the floor to my right angle arm with a tape?

Cheers!
Liam

Imagine you are holding a pole with forearm parallel to the ground. Measure from top of thumb to floor and add two inches. That is your ski pole length (according to sports_outlet), dare say you'll be at least 135cm.

I've got some adjustable lekis that didn't quite like the amount of weight I was putting on them when I was cross country skiing with a fairly large bergen on my back. Split the adjustable clamps on them after only a few weeks.

Go for the longer, you can always cut a few inches off, but it's a bit of a PITA adding on. Very Happy
