the 25ft is only a very very small difference in weight

I've been using my Elite carbon fibre pole for almost 1.5 years now.

It's 30ft but i took 2 sections off so using as 20 ft most of the work,put them back on whenever need to reach higher.

No glue used on the clamps so no need to re-glue.Need tightening with an allen key about once a month.

It's a robust pole i think,i haven't changed or fixed anything on it yet.

got a 25 foot carbon pole about 18 months ago . cant fault it . not had 1 problem with it and it is the only pole i use all day every day . clamps are easy to use and not had any issues with them . i used a slx 25 before this and i cant tell any weight difference when using it all day . i do prefer the elite it feels a little more robust and stiffer than the slx. i will be be dissapointed if i dont get at least another 2 years out of it. would i buy another . if you asked me a month ago i would say defo . but now defo not , just on the fact i needed to replace the pole hose , for the first time .it finally arrived after 3 weeks of emails and phone calls and getting fobbed off . buch of twats

Had mine 18 months but Section 1 is wearing quite a bit so have had to respray a good few times along with sections 2 and 3 . Apart from that a quality pole but i will be replacing it with an SLX 35 before next April providing i can get it without positive stops . Mike
