Post by: macleod on March 27, 2009, 04:50:11 pm: got a wonderful Daddy modular pole from Gardiner, work all day at stupid high levels.
a Teenager Ionic multipole (18 ft)
and now the Mummy pole (couldnt get a slx) so went for a glyder...

looks good (but no sexy graphics like in the brouchure!!!!!) feels good to hold, funny ribbed effect...

without the graphics on the pole the bright easyjet orange clamps make it look a bit outta place...

test drive on monday!

This is true....

I found the Glyder to be a very nice pole, although I think the Ionics brush makes it feel a lot heavier than it is. Feels pretty good with the Superlite brush on.

Do they supply it without the brush?
