Hi Alex,

I spent the morning with the printing company for the final proof of the brochure so should be able to start sending them out next week (fingers crossed).

Any ideas on regular pole sizes that people order irrelevant of pole make.

Thanks clean for your reply

regards Stuart

The fastest selling sizes are 17ft and 21ft.  However, this week we have sold more 45ft poles than any other size.

I reckon Gardiners may have beaten you to it skypole with their sl-x. But I still think their is a market for a 17-19ft strong - stiff - great clamps pole. I am quite annoyed with my xtels ( 17ft ) as the clamps are starting to spin after only 4 months!!!! apart from that it is a good pole to use. If you could build a 17-19ft pole that weighs less than 2kg, short sections, stiff and very tough clamps you would have a brilliant pole, Luke

Skypole, could I have a brochure for your new skypole coming out please? should I send my address to your email? Luke

Why does your pole spin Luke, is it the shaft wearing or the clamps themselves? I had an extender that only lasted five weeks! After that i bought cheap modular for sixty quid - still going after ten months everyday use but needs replacing very soon.
