i dont care!you wont beat an XTREME  mk3 pole(25 ft) for strength,rigidity and a pure joy to use day in/day out.its very light but very strong too.not an easy thing to achieve. ;).

facelift poles are just not in the same league as gardiner poles for sure.
price higher/work harder!

Unless they've made a new version WCW and Foxy Roxy had to pull the Neon poles from sale due to blatant Patent infringement on Gardiner Xtreme poles- in layman's terms WCW just copied the gardiner Xtreme poles! Foxy reckoned the Neons were based on other technologies but soon whipped them off the shelves!! ;D

Are they available then I had a carbon facelift 25ft for years and I have to say for strength it was the best I've owned,in all the time I had it the whole clamp section of the pole never needed attention.

I also had the same pole, however they were made by Facelift before WCW bought them out. Facelift products are now WCW products. I agree, the old Facelift carbon poles were very hard wearing but twice the weight of current offerings and MUCH less rigid.

Depends whether the Neon you refer to is a new re-worked version or the original that they had to stop selling? They basically ripped Gardiner Xtreme poles design off. Do you have a link?

I just googled neon carbon pole and it came up on WCW site saying it's available from January this year,starts at 500 I would be prepared to give one a go if it's as light as they say.

I'm about to buy a spare pole but I don't think the facelift fits the Gardiner carbon goosenecks so that would sway me to buy the extreme.

Chum, yes this is a new version (mk2) and lighter than xtreme or any other pole available for that matter. Good to see you are still trolling, well done. Keep up the good work.

Dazmond, in your opinion... and you haven't used anything else so that opinion is in question! ;D

With respect, I have to admit I don't understand that kind of reasoning Dazmond.

It follows from what you say  that if, or when, Gardiners bring out an Extreme Mark 4 that is stronger, lighter and more rigid than the mark 3, then you ''won't care''  and will still say you can't beat a mark 3.

Really?
