Xtreme 22 with extensions.
Takes 1 minute to fit the extensions and go as high as you need.
Shorter closed length than the 25 and lighter. Less prone to breaking as the sections are shorter.

I'd sooner have more than less.
The 25 may suit 90 % of jobs but what then ?
Nothing worse than taking on a job at full stretch or not being able to reach.
I used to have a supermax 40 and a clx 27. The 27 did the bulk of the work and subsequently got retired after a few years. I then used the supermax 40 with sections removed to give the equivalent of an slx 25, adding the other sections when needed. When a couple of the top sections got too worn ( one snapped ) I bought a new slx 25, still continue to use the bottom sections of the supermax 40 when needed ( must be nearly 10 years old now with minimal wear ). Tubeless style set up makes adding / removing sections so quick and easy. So my point is I'd choose whichever pole reaches all your work plus at least 1 section  and add / remove when required.  Thats gonna be a hell of a lot cheaper than buying 2 -3 poles and a 35 or 40 will not cost so much more than a 25.

Cancel that .... I will actually have an slx 27 with #7 and #8 extensions then break down to a 4 section with 2 add ons with 2 sections in each , the full height I need with a nice collapsed length

If it's for staff, I wouldn't make it confusing for them, they'll probably break within first six months - year.
Stick to the 25  or go cheaper with the clx range, depending on your staff  ;D

Breaking down poles doesn’t do them any good, unless you’re really careful.
