have you looked at repairing it, if its a fairly clean break, slide the thinner bit inside the other and glue it up, you lose a few ft, but it'll get close

it was a splintered break...so i repaired it with what i had in my pole grave yard,down the side of my garage.
i cut about a 12 inch section of an old fibre glass pole greased it up with wd40 very tight fit( it was made for it)lol.
cleaned it and duck taped the repaired section. feels strong enough when i gave it a whirl,anyway we shall see its back out tomorrow.
