This was brilliant, thanks so much. I've just brought my first pair of poles (thanks Harrier!) in advance of my first Ultra, so this was really helpful, thank you.
I think it's the most complete video I've seen about pole use! Thanks! I do the gallop technique a lot, I didn't know it had a name! LOL. For average runners, like me poles are a huge help.
Yes it's exactly the same whether adjustable or fixed because the principle remains the same, the height of the pole when your elbow is 90 degrees allows you to use the 45 degree plant
@@harrier_trail_running many thanks but in one of your videos you say that the elbows should be more than 90 degrees that's why I'm confused which size to buy

Useful thanks
I thought this would be more relevant to my group runs with Stanisław and Krzysztof
Is the 90 degree rule still valid when choosing a fixed pole length or is there no basis for this?

@bilaltahir9978 it doesn't matter what type of poles you buy just need them to be slightly bigger than 90 degrees angle
Yes
