SLX wearing after a few months? my current one is over 5 years old and gets abused all day every day!! The Phantom has only been out a matter of weeks has it not?
As I said his a thug with a pole, very heavy handed, but he works hard and long days I would prefer if the SLX would last longer but they don’t its just factored in one pole one year if possible then new pole,
To date there’s no wear on the carbon ( it’s just over two months old now I think )on the pole where the poles normally end up spinning through work. When the pole owner pays for a pole he takes more care generally
When you work for someone and they provide piles I guess it’s not as important,

The SLX doesn't spin with wear as they have smart clamps. My oldest SLX is now wafer thin in parts, you can physically deform part of the tube with your finger and it still clamps without spinning! This pole is over 5 years old. It's used alk day every day, never gets cleaned and is abused constantly! Your comments don't add up in my experience!
