Great poles

The G3 skins are great. Simple, bomber, seem to last forever, and the tip attachment is by far the most flexible around.

Speed 320 probe

In general a great probe. Reliable and durable. Long, Simple and easy lock mechanism. Cost effective. We use lots of them for our snow survey program and they seem to provide a few years of use before they show issues.

Things to be aware of:
-Always check your safety gear functionality every year, and dry them out after use and certainly in the summer storage months.
-Do not get them full of water and then let them freeze as the cable spring can freeze to the point where you can't engage the lock mechanism.

Things we've seen after a few years of use:
-Pointed tip gets has gotten stuck in rocks or frozen ground and detached from the probe
-The aircraft cable has broken just below the cable swage lock mechanism
-The freezing issue as noted above

Things that could be improved
-Long term durability of the parts noted above
The bag that it comes in is fiddly to open in the event of needing to get the probe out fast so we just put a rubber band on ours and store it in our packs like that. BD's design seems better
