I have the 22 hybrib pole, I do love the clamps but the top section has worn down and its been about a year.
I have to lacquer every 2 weeks to stop it from sliding down while working.
The last time I separated it to lacquer it I used electric tape, to tape the bottom of the pole as a stopper and this has helped with the top spinning\sliding down.
I think the full carbon one would be a bit better.
PS also have a slx 25 but its new and I only use it for higher jobs.
