So you're after a new wfp pole then? 
No Smurf, In fact had actually bought a carbon fibre pole/poles off him long time back when he was in Australia.
Met up with him at a Mc Donald's car park where we checked out the poles.
And discovered much later from a friend was common for him to do this.
Most people would put some sort of deposit down to pay full amount later.
However because it was very hard to get any sort of carbon fibre poles at the time in Australia.
Had paid him there and then for the poles and a setup.
This I believe was the last sale he had made in Australia as just bought his demo poles and set up.
The poles use still today no problems.
Thanks H Man. Perry obviously saw an opportunity to try fill a market gap then. Much the same as Alex Gardiner in his early days. You can't take away from the fact that Perry does think outside of the box though regards to innovation. Even though I've never tried any of the reach-it products some of his ideas do seem rather good in concept.
It's one thing having a good concept other thing implementing so it work the best for what it is meant for.
Classic example wagtail squeegee like the concept it has some things that has always been a problem but never addressed.
Instead change there mind do something different or rebirth old ideas that really didn’t work then.
Add or re jig a few things.
Then claim that is the best thing since sliced beard.
And give it a different name??
Never fix the problem.
Even have not tried any of the Reach-It brush and connections.
It seem that it is over engineered.
Think WCs just want buy something ready to go easy to adjust.
Earlier someone said, who would buy his poles any way when they see all the bad reviews on FB and Forums.
Fact is that we all started not knowing much about WCing and if you have a very good sales man can sell you anything.
But of cause you find out later that it was not a good deal or tool. 
Something like when bought the poles much later found that the bottom part of the carbon fibre pole was actually fibre glass. 
But you live and learn. 
I see others posters got there ahead of me.
You raise some very good points. Some designers stick with their original concepts even when it has design flaws which they don't seem to address. Wagga gets the Wagtail to work satisfactorily so what's the problem? I've never used one so I don't know.
Steven Jones tried to work at redesigning his aquadapter by shaving weight off. He also found that failures followed when he went too far. I admire him for realising that he had gone as far as he could with the aquadapter and it was time to bin it and come up with a new idea.
I do think the carbon fibre base pole is such an interesting issue. But as users we sometimes don't understand the reasons for designing a pole with those features. But sometimes the marketing people mask benefits as a cost cutting exercise.
Facelift have a complete base pole in Fiberglass I understand where the rest is carbon fiber. Gardiner's have a thin fiberglass layer over their base pole and the rest is carbon fiber.
Fibre glass isn't a conductor of electricity whereas Carbon fibre is.
At first glance it would appear from a marketing perception that a complete fiber glass base pole is best due to its having more insulator qualities. But from a buyer's perspective fibre glass poles were poor quality substitutes when compared to carbon fiber. So did Facelift use the Fibreglass base as a cost cutting exercise or did they feel that was the furthest they could go with regard to safety? They certainly didn't advertise the pole base as full fibre glass from what I recall as that would have stuck a negative in my mind straight away.
Alex Gardiner says that having a thin layer of glass fibre over his carbon fiber base pole is sufficient to insulate against electrical shock. So for me I'm quite happy to believe I have a better pole when buying and SLX than when buying a Facelift.
Perry's 'modular' pole system is far too complex when compared to Gardiner poles. It don't think its necessary to have a pole that is so strong I can stand on it holding a bag of concrete and it won't break. But I would expect that he will stick with his system and he will be promoting it 10 years from now (if his business hasn't gone the same way as the previous two). What I don't know is the bigger American market. Maybe that's a concept that the Yanks embrace so why change it. He can't compete in the British market so why change things and risk 'upsetting' the Yanks. They like big so the Reach-it probably fits in well.
So if its working for him, then why change a winning formula.
