Why are so many freestyle skiers abandoning their poles?

I've skied both ways and i personally like having poles for certain tricks, and not for others. Yes its benefitial to not have poles when you do grabs but in the air i believe my poles give me a sort of stability. However when i do rails its MUCH EASIER to just have my skis and no poles.

they cant ski, just jib. they look ridiculous without the poles... but tell them that, rite?

i think it helps with grabs and stuff. and you also don't have to worry about getting all tangled up with them personally i think its kinda weird so i still use my poles in the park.
