what lance for tall lads
« on: May 01, 2024, 08:04:48 pm »
Recently purchased a 1200mm stainless lance with a bend in it thinking it would help with me being tall (6'2) to avoid back and neck ache from my much shorter lance. Thing is I found that the extra length acted like a lever with the turbo nozzle pushing up and think it was actually worse!!! What do you tall lads find useful?

Made to measure.

Use the lance in another way.

The flow down onto the surface will support the weight of the lance and nozzle, so rather than holding the lance up you're holding it down.



Hand on trigger and other on phone.

When I say 'holding it down' that for me is literally a palm on the top of lance guiding it.

What you suggest is actually what I found most comfortable, i.e. right hand on trigger, left hand palm down on top of the lance pipe, however even then it was most uncomfortable than my shorter lance. Is there any merit in using a straight lance?
