Grass Sticks: The ski pole company leading the bamboo revolution.
Fed up with ugly, bent, and broken poles, engineer-turned-ski-bum, Andrew Beckler, set about creating his own from bamboo in a garage in Colorado.
Why bamboo?
Our first question is, what makes bamboo the best material to use for ski poles? The experts at Grass Sticks argue it is the natural allure, feather-light weight, and incredible strength of bamboo that help make it perfect pole material. It has the tensile strength of steel and a compressive strength greater than concrete, so it’s no surprise they are so confident, they offer an unlimited 2-year warranty.
Every stick is custom made
Grass Sticks recognize the importance of looking good on the mountain, which is why they custom make every pole based on your style.
As well as offering countless colorful combinations of baskets and grips, they assure us that looking great helps make you a better skier… we aren’t going to argue!
It’s all about the details:
The sticks are hand-sanded and finished with a UV/Moisture/Cold proof clear coat. The grips are made with a soft rubber that stays put in your hand with or without the use of the 100% recycled polyester straps. At the bottom, you'll find a premium no-slip carbide tip and interchangeable basket.
Better for the planet
Traditional carbon fiber and aluminum ski poles are mined from the earth, industrially manufactured, and mass-produced using an incredible amount of energy. This places a significant burden on our environment.
Whereas per acre harvested, bamboo produces 3x as much lumber as trees, absorbs more CO2, and produces more oxygen than any other plant!
Custom bamboo ski poles are available here from the Grass Sticks store.
