    There are a number of vendors selling Easton .344 poles or equivalent ala carte. About 50-52" is the standard length of each external pole made with 4 sections of 13", 3 sections of 18" or 2 sections of 26" depending on your own packability preferences. Each pole set needs two ends, one "female" and the remaining poles male (with insets) and shockcord is not required but is absolutely worth it so make sure you get the right tips. Poles can also can be cut-to-length either by the vendor or yourself.

    Iirc the supply chain for poles got a little sketchy late last year with covid impacting the hammock specific vendors.

    I have a 13' Super fly & went to Acadamy Sports & bought 2 pole kits for $7 something each. They worked great. Their fiberglass but I motorcycle camp & don't tote them. Their Calsomething brand.

    Dutch used to sell .275 poles which work great for me and are lighter. He has a few male poles in the closeouts but none of the female poles

    If they're long enough that you'll be cutting them down, you might be able to cut off the male end(s) to get where you want. That male end just MIGHT even be removable(?)
