Alex, How do get the brush to clean ground floor at 90 degrees with a fixed head goose neck ?
Eddie, everyone will be sold once they realise that these new poles are "tommorrows world" heaven to use. Its just trying to explain in words thats the hard part.

Alex,
       I could play baseball with a section of the carbon tec and it still would not break.

Hi Chris,

Which is why at 45ft it weighs about 8kg, whereas a super-lite just 2.3kg. I know which I would use for baseball and which I would use for window cleaning!

Alex ,
       Ok I'm sick of all these weight (my pole is lighter than yours) competitions, the unger pole suits me and has lasted 6 months of being trod on, tripped up on, being banged about all the time and it's showing no signs of wear  . I like it.

Chris you may not like it in years to come when repetitive strain sets in!  :-\

My trusty Unger is over 10 years old, its a great piece of kit, served me well  but is now alas in a well earned  retirement on the garage rafters gathering dust - because I use a next generation Featherlite pole.
I remeber debates like this when 8 years ago everyone said you couldnt use a backpack or a wfp to clean windows  :)

So does anyone like the carbon tec as much as I do?, I'm sure the fishing rods must catch the wind more because they are SO light. I think I can cope with the weight of the carbon tec at 60' it's not that heavy. I'm just off for a game of rounders so i'll let you know if the pole section survives.
