Default How good are Leki HM Shark poles? Pls help

Hi,

I don't have access to doorfront ski shops too well, but shop for good poles.
Found a somewhat discounted pai of 175cm HM Sharks. I like the idea of the trigger grips, very, very much.
But I want my poles stiff, and have been spoiled with Fischer Carbonlites.
Could anyone compare the HM Sharks to similar (top)level poles please?

Any idea how Leki's compare for actual length? My Fischers came up a bit short. Should i go for Fischer again, I would go for 177.5. My Rossignols which I bought in 172.5 would have been perfect (but still waaaaay flexy) in 175.

It will be either a new pair of suh poles for me, or a new pair of (preferably) trigger grips which are a bit longer than my current worn-out Fischer ones, to get that little bit of length I want.

Thanks so much for your input, web articles have learned me so much which ski teachers never mentioned.
