Re: Two different types of short radius turn

Re: Looking for the ultimate XCD ski pole

Give them a call. You can find a 1 800 number on their site. They are very helpful. And they garantee their stuff, so, you never know. I lost some connectors for my skins: I gave them a call and they sent me some free of charge! I have BD poles too, but I also have a non telescopic swix poles with b...

Re: Repairing a hole in a bellow...
