Default ISO WTB pole hand straps

Hi - I'm trying to rejuvinate a pair of nice old skate poles. Anyone
have some old around-the-back-of-the-hand type straps, new or used,
they would like to sell. I don't care about the fitting on the top as
I'll make a custom wedge. Thanks.

Chris

Default ISO WTB pole hand straps

Dear Chris:

I've come to appreciate regular straight straps, which I get from
Infinity (Zaveral Racing Equipment) combined with the V2-Jenex
Competion strap, which is an add-on strap for standard straps. I
especially like them for roller skiing, because the elastic part of the
competition strap will allow the pole to pull off of your arm, thus
avoiding a likely shoulder dislocation, when the pole gets stuck in a
crack in the pavement, which seems to happen to me every few years.
(Just happened a few weeks ago.) This set up is similar to the old
Swix SR94 straps without the "energy strap", which are no longer made.
You can find both companies on the web.
