Hello,
I'm interested in what experiences slightly taller hikers have with poles. A few weeks ago I tried Black Diamond poles in the store and found that the correct pole length for me is 130cm or a couple cm more, which means that on descent I'd have to extend the pole to the maximum. So I'm wondering if that incidentally means the pole will twist much more and maybe it would be better to buy longer poles? Are e.g. Krpan poles from Tehnomat a sensible alternative or do they not pay off due to weight and length?

Thanks for the help.
