I got the 60ft one, and often use it on houses a 30 - 35ft

I probably wouldnt reccomend it for all day every day use as you have to swap and change sections

This is very easy to do but can sometimes be a pain if you need extra section and have to go back to van just for that.

All in all though a VERY good light pole

carl,

Have you read any posts on DIY 'super light' poles; the Zensorflex comes in 3 ft short sections; it's cheap (£20(ish)), and great for domestic work; easy to do too; a seven year old child could DIY one?

I've banged on enough about these poles, so won't do a big indepth post now; but do a search on this forum for Zensorflex and the Gangster.

I've been using mine for a good few months now; about four maybe; and they're great; no problems at all.

The 35 footer will stack inside each other except the base section so it can be carried about fairly easily. The Slx although heavier is the one that does everything - the latest one is 30 foot and is pretty robust. You could use the S2 all day but it's not as strong or easy to bash about gates blowing in the wind etc.

 :) I know Tosh loves his Zensorflex and i started with the Gangsta version a couple of years ago and yes they do work but they don't really compare to an S2 for stiffness. The S2 is like a ramrod at those shorter lengths - it's very different (but far more expensive). I tried to go back to the Zensorfex but just can't adapt to the bend in it now. I've got one in my van and i don't think i'll ever use it - unless i can't afford another Gardiner pole.
My advice - don't buy any Gardiners poles.



What you've never had you'll never miss.  ;)

Sure Polutions

Once you go superlite you wont go back, i think the rigidity is its best asset.
