I'm not big, 150#. I take care of my stuff and generally recognize the limits of UL gear. The first break, the upper section, was caused when I fell on the pole when it was bridged between 2 rocks. No pole would have withstood that without damage. The second break, the lower section, happened when the tip got caught in a hole. I believe my GG poles would have survived that no problem. I use section poles for summit attempts in the Rockies. TI Goat poles are highly praised on this website. I believe they are good poles. They just are not working for my use. Tim
