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 |

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.
