I've been watching that space for half an hour now and I still can't see it.

Why is it every time I buy a new pole Alex brings a better one out the week later   :o

Buy a new brush and out pops an improved version.

Bought my Supermax then they altered the length and construction.

I can't keep up with him  ;D

Roughly translated

At those prices, I will not be buying one.

Can't understand why he did not say that himself.  ::)

Probably good for the longer length poles or for those who suffer from RSI related problems - which seems to be about half the people on this site.

I guess it isn't pointless because we are talking about it right now. So the video did the job. It makes people talk about it. :)

Seriously, seriously light poles. 1KG for a 25ft pole. Nice. My Mk.1 SL-X is still working just fine. Tribute to how well these poles are built. Great investment.

itll be great if the 25ft is very light with a quick option to add another section to take it to 30 foot.


i wouldnt need another pole!! :D :D :D


any of us who are window cleaning day in/day out would be stupid not to buy the lightest poles to avoid injury or lessen current strains!

im not sure how much lighter you can go though!!the clx 22footer is my main pole with the 25ft hydra getting used for the odd bigger/commercial jobs.

i would think the reason there is no pictures is because the patent is pending  ;D ;D

if its really light and the best pole ever made then i might have to save my money up i have a clx at the moment but find it has alot of flex when extended  :)

I don't care if they are the lightest pole in the world at £485 for a 18 footer he can keep it some time you have to draw the line. what gets me is most people was moaning about the price of the aqua-dapter and yet the same ones would buy a pole for that price  i rest my case.

One question i would like to ask, if someone could pass it on to the holy one, and relay back the answer.

Is this a new additional catergory of pole, a new range of poles, or the latest improvement and new version of the slx?

I know he still frequents Matts forum so if someone could just verify this with him.

Guys don't get the story wrong, suspense, anticipation and expectancy all recognized marketing ploy. Look for the motive and you will find the reasoning behind the story. 8) 8) 8) ;D ;D By the time you see the pic you will just want it so don't say never.These guys a very clever and use there market to improve on what they have made.Don`t see this as bad, its better than so many companies who never improve.

My pole history-

Unger alloy
Extender F/glass + extender F/glass
second hand Ionic carbon pole
Carbon Facelift
SLX
SL2

Each one making each day easier, faster & with better results. ;)

Okay .......

So an 18ft xtreme is 200g lighter than an 18ft slx and £300 dearer. Is that 200g saving worth it?

Is it more rigid than an SLX?

I can understand it at the longer lengths but is it worth at 18ft?

I'm tempted but £485 is a bit salty for 18ft. £350 then perhaps, but £485 ..... hmmmmmm!? I spose that's plus 20% vat too. Double hmmmm ....

Maybe next year if the price drops.
