hi guys are the hybrid better than the GF what i mean is are they as whippy its just i got a 34 reach GF1 today and is it whippy or what so i just need to know if the hybrid is as whippy before i send it back other wise i will keep it.

The Hybrids are much better, the carbon fiber is stiffer than the glass. Still a little bit on the whippy side, but nowhere near as bad as the glass fiber poles. Great for vertical work, but has enough flex for windows above conservatories etc. Pair it with a light brush and it'll be great

Terrible poles don`t waste your mon ey,i had a 27ft 1 i think it was and it was awfull,i used it for about 4-5 jobs and put it in the back of the van and forgot about it.They are not ridgid at all unlike some will tell you there a different coloured fiberglass pole if you ask me.

so would a universal GF be stronger. not as whippy .

i only need it for 3 new jobs i got i will be getting the SLX or the SL in sep when i get my van system so i ony need  it till then.

In answer to the original question, yes they are much more rigid.  A gf xtel at over 20 ft is like pig on a stick (as someone once described it here).  The hybrids on the other hand are usable.

You get what you pay for though, and the newer carbon poles although much more expensive are like a dream in comparison.

WHAT A LIAR YOUR POLES WERE HYBRID NOT CARBON

The hybrids are fine, despite what others on here are saying.

I use mine for anything from bedroom window height to four story windows and for the price I cant fault it.

Is there a reason for the caps.

[STEVE-UK]

I bought RWC's hybrid 31ft, personally i cant fault it,it wears well and with the superlight brush its a lovely pole to use not to much flex with the shortest collapsed length, with the ioincs 20inch brush its whippy though,

The 17ft fully extended is rubbish i know,when i used it i had it at about 12ft tops anything over that it`s like wrestling a crocodile lol.

Personally I find 17 ft xtel fg with sl brush ideal for domestics. My only concern is how durable it will be.
