we all know what the best is. not mentioning any names. but whats your opinion of the worse poles out there
-
SLX ;D
-
metal and rhymes with fodex
-
i reckon the worse i ve tried is one of those bayesan 36 footer fibre glass poles (dont think its spelt right)it was like using a scaffold pole
-
haha i remember them, i think they make them look really good on ebay and they're harsh harch poles to use !
-
the one i just tried to sell on ebay! ;D
-
I have a 35ft alloy pole that is older than gods dog. Its that heavy that i got it up to a first floor window with the intention of going to the 3rd floor and gave up just going past the 1st floor.
No name on it, just heavy and alloy ... might take it up the scrap yard and weigh it in ... could probably get enough money for it to buy an extreme ;D

My 42ft Unger alloy I got with my trolley from Peter Fogwill. Still got most of it!
-
45' ionics fibre glass pole I bought when i started up 6 years ago. Used to make me cry everyday when I used it!!! Weighed a ton.
-
i have the full 5 section 10m pole from unger (teleplus).its the same as the one peter fogwill supplies with his systems.its actually a 30ft pole GOLD!!
IT WEIGHS A TON AND IS VERY WHIPPY EVEN WITH A SUPALITE ON THE END!!
i use the 3 section (18ft) as a trad pole for a few jobs but the other 2 sections were a waste of money as ive never used them!!cant see me using them either!! ;D ;D
ill keep em just in case i get an inside commercial job with high windows!! ;D ;D
-
I have a blue pole that would make most grown men cry if they had to use it ;D
-
Not sure about 36foot but heres what I was using yesterday big black Brodex dinosaur think its about 50 or 60ft when fully extended.
Comes complete with Vikan brush as well .... forget about rinsing off the glass !

Using it yesterday with all lengths open bar 1.

Its owner has taken it back off me so need to replace with something else.
