i was a sceptic of Jeff's fishing pole idea, infact i had 2 different makes of pole in the garage for more then 6 months, the fishing pole was in the garage for 9 months
i had my unger 3 X 2M ali pole and it was great, it was hard wearing, i could run over it in the car, i didnt need to mess about with the fishing pole idea
Ive had a niggley neck muscle for months, it got to a point where i thought i had to change the way i worked, that meant a van for a tank in it ( as it happens, i still use drums for the time being, but thats down to time kitting out the van ) and a lighter pole
i tested a pole supplier by GF pure freedom, same length as my ali pole, it weighed the same
if not more ) it was a beast
i built the fishing pole, as per the little guide i did, first time i used it, its really really LIGHT, it was amazing, sure it wont last for ever, infact i cracked the end about 6 weeks ago, i superglued it together and wrapped some tape around it for a bit of extra protection ( it does work ), its fine again, as i said, it wont last a life time, but at 21 quid its a very light pole thats seems to be lasting well enough
sure its not for everyone, but at 21 quid, if your thinking of trying the idea out, then you not going to lose much are you ?? ? ?
