Avo, you are referring to our old poles.
You seemed to think they were fibre glass, unlike the poles you recommended which contain fibre glass, they are 100% carbon fibre.
Our new ones are made from aero industry certified 100% carbon fibre.
You also implied that whilst ours ( tapered then but not now) were liable to jamming the ones you quoted, didn't dream on!!
We now only do clamped and very seldom if ever jam.
Ours are now the lightest on the market and of course by far the cheapest.
If any body wants to any, allow at least a week to manufacture, we are stacked out with orders.
I would like to trial run these poles if the ones are used about 18 months ago were the old ones they were unusable in my opinion.. sorry for the negative feedback I was just trying to be honest
