I have been send 2 top sections (ul)
I have only had a brief look at them ,will be giving them a good go this coming week.
My first thoughts on the Pheonix is how much slimmer it is to other poles.
Now this top section ,under normal use i would not think it would break.
It doesnt seem to whip around (flex). This is on the compisit one yet to try the GF one.
I will update once i have tried it .
