I'm 180 cm, currently 110Kg and falling (slowly) and I use Helinox Passport ultralight folding poles.
I started with the 115 cm model and now use a pair of the 125 cm poles as I find it much easier to descend with the longer poles..
They are very light, at 164 grams for the longer poles, and I have walked thousands of km with them and never had a breakage, failure or any sort of problems.
The only "problem" if you could call it that is that the standard basket supplied with these poles is very small, which is OK except in snow or deep mud, where the poles tend to dive, dive, dive. Bigger baskets for snow and mud are of course available and pretty cheap.
Otherwise I can't recommend them highly enough.
cheers,
