Needing some new pole hose! wondering if anyone has used the new "all season" pole hose from gardiners yet? is it good stuff?
Supposed to be great for all year round.
-
I doubt it. I think it's new on the site today. But will be ordering some now. As I hate the hose I have now lol
-
Ah didn't realize it had only come out today!
Using the rubber type hose atm i think been a nightmare to use lately all curling up etc
-
Ordered some as was needing a pole section anyway. :D
Hope it lives up to what Alex says.
-
Got it today and will be in use tomorrow :D
Got about 4 videos todo this week as well.
Alex should be sending me stuff to trial :D

To get the best from this new hose right from the start it is best to let it 'relax' from its tight factory coils first. If possible coil it in very large loose coils and leave overnight before using. Even better leave it run out in a straight line over night.
Looking forward to your videos :)

This new 'All-Season' pole hose is brand new so it will not be the same as the soft type you are currently using. I am using this new hose with push-fittings and all is working well (cold water) with no leaks.
To cure the issue on your current hose you can fit these stem-to-barb adapters wherever the hose connects to a push-fitting and it will completely cure any tendency to pop out: http://www.gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/acatalog/John-Guest-8mm-stem-to-6mm-Barb-PM250806E.html

Those JG stem to barb adaptors are excellent. :)

Alex, are you going to sell lengths longer than 30m, after the trial? I currently use Aqua-dapters red pole hose as my main hose on my reel; 50m. Don't really want a join in the hose.

You can buy a 100meters already. It's on the site :)
