I use the brodex alloy 7 & 25ft mate, they are great poles for the price, just quite heavy tho.
I think the 36ft might be very heavy.
I would recomend getting the brodex trigger fitter, as they do save a bit of water.
I also dont like the pole hose that come with all brodex poles, but they are easy to change.
The quality of the pole is fantastic, The pole clamps are good, and the alloy end butt is very strong.
Overall i find them a great pole to use, with quite little bend in them.
