Carbon Poles
I'm on a carbon skypole right now, 14'6" 185 pounds and it is amazing. I moved up a foot once i got on it. There's a lot of push off the top on it. Fiberglass poles are just to slow and noodley now. I think once you make the switch you never go back. Everyone should try a carbon pole.

Next year...16'
