Carbpn fiber vs aluminum poles is just like bikes.  The carbon fiber is better at absorbing vibrations, and in a ski pole will usually also be a bit flexible which further absorbs any  plant impact..  On my Leki poles I have two sets of baskets that are interchangeable.  Plus, I like the trigger connection to the gloves instead of strap.

Goode carbon poles are a good(e) choice..
