Place the sock over your hand like a glove.
You will be using this hand to pull off the heated basket.
Heat the worn/broken basket with a blow dryer to melt the existing adhesive.
Heat for no longer then three minutes.
Once the basket is heated, use your protected hand to pull firmly on the basket until it comes off of the pole.
Heat an all purpose glue stick with a lighter.
Spread a very thin layer of the melted glue on the basket end of the pole, then press on the new basket.
Press the new basket immediately after applying the melted glue in order to obtain maximum adhesion.
Reheat the replaced basket with a hair dryer for a minute.
After heating, allow the glue to cool and set for 10 minutes.
After drying for 10 minutes, your poles will be ready for use. Happy Skiing!
