What's Jeff Brimble upto these days?

He was doing a new pole last I heard, is he still making it?

If he is, has anyone got one?

I don't think Gav was the right person to test Jeff's new pole.
He's never at work with that van of his.  ;D ;D ;D

The Ninja is an excellent pole, i have one. I believe (although i stand to be corrected) that is a 'composite' pole. Its just push and pull, no expensive clamps to break. At 21/22 foot (roughly) its a great height for everyday residential work.

Can anyone post a decent, honest review of this pole? It sounds good but no one who has bought one has done a review that I am aware of. It would be helpfull to others if you could whatever you may think of it.

My lad uses one, it's a handy pole but nothing fancy. It's telescopic and the pole taper will keep it up in the extended position.
When your using it closed all the sections would spin, but Jeffs overcome this by appling self anealing tape to the top of each section. The sections will still spin with wear, so you need to keep a roll of electricians tape in your pocket, a couple of wraps of tape fixes it.
As I said it's nothing fancy, but a very quick pole in use, and a nice short length when closed.

In haste. Some may rember that Hardys where the b and end all, of split cane fishing rods a long time ago  ::)

My own analaogy of the Ninja is that its a similar comparison in that each pole has to be "tailored" to suit window cleaners.

It evolved from thought after realising that there are a few companies making lots of our hard earned bucks out there, after adapting modular fishing poles, I thought how can we get to cheap telescopic ? the "Ninja" is my answser. Light compact 4ft sections and very tough for staff use (excepting Gav  ;D) (thanks Gav hope you organise a few night runs for the Wrexham scooter lads to Ruthin Square in the summer.
Its a belt and braces answer and is being further developed.)

I am in no hurry to sell any of them as I think you will find that they are a thinking mans wfp. I am happy to to sell one only one a week as they take that long to doctor, so I believe that you get true value for money. Sold a batch to the USA a few months ago - where they where quoted as being the " fastest selling pole in WCR history".
Thanks for the thought Tosh ! got fed up with the page load up times here. :o
Back laters, off to Maplins to find a decent remote.
