These flag poles work great and they're the ones we use at Hamline University. They're very sturdy, lightweight, and you easily step them into the ground. They also store really well; they won't need a lot of space for storage.

The MF X-C Flag Poles are the best and most durable flag poles on the market. They are light enough to grab a handful and quickly step them into the ground. They safely mark off throwing sectors and can be quickly adjusted or moved. They are sturdy, set up quickly, and made of indestructible steel.

I've been using products created by Rick Ringeisen for well over 30 yrs and have found them to be of the utmost quality and extremely affordable. The best part of the X-C and Event Flag Poles are that they are extremely portable and easy to store. It is easy to carry 10 pole in each hand to work site. When not in use, they are hooked on hangers in our storage facility. These Event Flag Poles combined with disposable caution tape simplify post meet pick and do a masterful job of defining safe space for athletes and fans. We can't live without them!

These are very sturdy, light weight, and can be setup quick and easily. A well made product!

The X-C and event flag pole is an excellent product as it has an excellent build that won't break like all those plastic flag poles out there. Also, putting flags on it is very easy and doesn't require and complicated threading due to its loop at the top. Finally, these poles can be stored much easier than the plastic ones that sit in the corner of your shed and then fall when someone disrupts them. The X-C flag pole can be hung on a wall so that they are out of the way leaving your storage place neat and organized.
