Do you have your tap for the pole hooked under your belt?

do you have a tap on your pole ie is taped to your pole and are you right handed. if yes to both then you probably have a very slight leak might even not drip but just run a little fron the joints on the tap this then drips off the end of the pole and if you are right handed the bottom of the pole .....in your right hand will be above your right foot hence the wet foot .....................elementary my dear watson......bet im wrong on every count

I bet your left handed and your leading foot is the right one? I'm right handed and my left foot always gets soaked.

Hi,
instead of cutting your foot, you can get the waterproof Sealskinz Mid light socks

if water is running down the pole put a rubber band on it half way up.

if tap is leaking get a new tap
if rectus fittings are used and arel eaking, replace.

Amputate your right foot and this will defo cure the problem, you then might have to change the way you stand and use your left foot and you know where that is going :o
if you are in my area, I think you should give up window cleaning as I would hate the thought of you getting wet each day, I'm kind like that  ;D

I had this recently and found a small puncture in the hose. Bit of tape solved it.

Is the water running down your pole, if thats not too personal a question.  If so a couple of rubber bands placed above where you hold it may help to stop it running down to you.
