Hi Dazzler

I am hoping that they will be on the shelf ready to send out sometime next week.

We will continue to sell both types alongside each for some time to offer a choice to those who like the older style  :)

Thanks.

This depends on exact stock levels, but about 2-4 weeks time the Series-II Xtreme poles will stop being on sale and will continue to be sold but at a non-sale price.

What's the difference between the old version and the new version?

Some are older than others.

Might have guessed, ask a sensible question and get an idiotic response from another troll with nothing better to do  :)

The new X3 is 3% lighter, 15% more rigid, 20% stronger and fully clampable in any position.

20% stronger sounds like a big improvement. How would that compare with the SLX.
I would like to see a video of safe working loads comparing different poles.

Sorry.  I was running late and in a hurry to go out earlier on.
I should have said, "Some are older than others and some are newer." :)
I'll crawl back under my bridge now.

Hi Alex
i use the extreme mk 1 and mk 2 the extreme with the metal bands is heavier than the one without the bands , so when you say that the new pole is 5 % lighter do you mean 5% lighter than the one with the metal bands and if so what is the weight difference between the mk 1 and mk3
I hope that makes sense

They are on average about 3% lighter (between 30-70g lighter). Some of the sizes of the X-3 poles are lighter than the same sizes in the series-I poles and some sizes of the X-3 poles are the same weights as the series-I poles.

The SLX poles still have greater lateral strength (about another 20% stronger again). However the X3 rigidity is much greater than the SLX poles.
