If I have an aluminum pole split, or kink or break, I have a splint for it. I would likely use it conjunction with the tape. I only take one though, so for a second break, I'd need to improvise. It's a tube with an inside diameter just greater than the outside diameter of the poles. Slide it over the owie, tape it into place, back in business.
