Does the pole hose go inside or outside the pole?

Because it is not round and cannot freely move other than up/down then the wear will be concentrated on certain parts of the pole sections?

Yes I see ,  but didn’t the extender range of GF orange jobs realise this at least 10 years ago  with the twisted triangle shape they punted out 
New design my arse  ;D

H, does any part of this pole have a swivel mechanism that is not up to your exacting standards?

Is it too smooth, needs roughing up a bit?

No LOL.
But yes maybe  the idea of using the pole shape.
We were talking about this shape for poles 4 /5 years on our FB group.
Looks like they worked it out benefits.
It more teardrop then triangular in shape,
Here is what we were looking at then. Below.

Yeah like an Ova pole I have 1 and it’s a lot lighter than anything Unger will sell.

The problem with the pole is anyone with six fingers can’t grip it properly.

So are you saying that there is no flex using this pole?

so you got it right this time Hman  I bet Unger paid you a pretty penny for designing that shape - well done to you

But this is not an oval shape.
It is more a teardrop shape has it's own strengths over the others.

Actually, on paper, running the hose through eyes on the outside of the pole looks a brilliant idea, I guess it doesn’t work too well in the real world?
