Can someone explain in more detail the bit I've highlighted in bold above - ie. why?. How would you choose new poles? Where else except Decathlon (not close to me) can you get them?
thanks

Online. You can get pole kits which you simply cut to length to match or to repair a broken pole. Generally you only need to know the pole diameter as most are made to a similiar standard. You can even get pre-bent ones if your tent has shaped poles.
