I'd certainly like to buy one, however unlike some I spend a lot of my money on holidays/weekend breaks and personal possessions etc, me and be wife are off to New York in March, I decided it best to spend money on life not putting too much money back on work tools, id rather spend hard eanrned money on exploring the world and dining out more etc...
I would buy an xtreme, just not at the huge price, if it only lasts 18 months!!
I love my facelift poles, use them more than the slx2, 18ftis so so light (980g), and very very rigid, 25ft is also under 1400g, and half the price atleast of xtreme poles plus will last 2 years if looked after well...
So, whilst I'm sure xtreme poles are superb, I know they will not earn me more money, is still get the same amount of work done with my current poles, were probably talking minor differences in weight and rigidity in reality...
