What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"These are my go-to poles when I want full confidence in big-mountain terrain. The SRS strap system gives me peace of mind if I get into trouble, and the aluminum shaft can take serious abuse without bending. It's a bomber piece of gear I'd trust for seasons to come."Whether we're dropping steep couloirs or charging through wind-loaded bowls, we need poles we can depend on-and the SCOTT Team Issue SRS Ski Poles never let us down. Built with SCOTT's trusted S4 aluminum and featuring a robust 18mm shaft diameter, these poles have become a staple for freeriders who need performance and durability in all conditions. What really sets them apart is the integrated Strap Release System (SRS), which adds a critical safety feature in high-consequence terrain by releasing the strap under tension. With a comfortable Notch 1. 0 grip, interchangeable powder and alpine baskets, and the precise control of a carbide tip, the Team Issue SRS poles are ready for long days, deep snow, and full-send lines.
