This is a third-tier lightweight racing pole. For good value, the 100% HS carbon gives enough stiffness for all users in classic or skate. This pole model comes in `Free Length` options, meaning the handles are unattached and can be easily cut down to a custom length. Email us at [email protected] after you place your order for `Free Length` poles, and we`ll cut them down to the length you specify and attach the handles before shipping free of charge!
