i just nip the hose now.its aqua-daptor pole hose mind you which is great!!

im using around 350-400L a day now where i was using more like 300L before but thats mainly due to working with a mega high flow rate.
the thing is with the aqua-daptor is i use carbon goosenecks with extreme brushes for most of my work and i find all the adaptors needed not very secure on my pole and it does affect the overall balance of the pole.
my pole is ultra lightweight now which makes the awkward windows a breeze.ive noticed a lot less strain on my shoulders and neck.
and i cant recommend using a high flow rate highly enough!!i can save an hour a day at least just by using a fast flow.
