27 ft CLX heavy when fully extended

Must be getting old as finding it a real struggle when using it fully extended ... should have saved up and got a carbon 1 I think still new to the wfp so may grow some bigger muscles yet  ;D

Must be getting old as finding it a real struggle when using it fully extended ... should have saved up and got a carbon 1 I think still new to the wfp so may grow some bigger muscles yet  ;D

have you got a supalite on the end as well?ive been wfp 9 months and my shoulders and arms have really built up!!i find it is the lightest of my poles.i use a 25ft hydra alloy on a few bigger jobs with a vikan on the end.that is heavy!! ;D ;D ;D

you ll get used to it!do a few stretches when you get up in the morning.thats what i do.

i think its a very light pole and is perfect for regular domestics IMO.I am going to get a 25ft SLX as my next pole though just to see if there is any difference between the two.
price higher/work harder!

I bought the 36 brodex because i was fed up of turning work away !  Anyway I have weak shoulders and I can manage to get it up and wave it around while squirting water around with a red face and I gained quite a few new custys.

Clx are lightweight poles, the lightest i have ever used, and its paradise whipping through all the jobs with ease...have not tried the slx, some say they are even lighter ....

but they will still be heavy for you Ian. 

god i remember doing all my work with my first second had pole ... a 45ft fibre glass ionics ,could hardly get my hands around it when closed...

so clx are a breeze... your just spoilt.
