Freestyle handlepoles

[djkorn1]

I can't see running a heavier pole...My UMI's broke like they were made of paper mache...the XMetal has not broken yet, but I have seen them break. If I had it to do over, I would go with an AC or an old SR71 24-7 carbon pole. Those are the only poles I have not seen break and they are light.

The XFT's are also light, but I have seen those break too.

Anyone break an AC????? or seen an AC break?

i have an xft pro pole and it is 6.6lbs and is rock solid.

I put on a Xmetal adjustable billet and love it! Chad at Xscream is a great guy to deal with and they are super helpful with any install questions. The trim kit they sell is awesome too, just got that in as well.

If you need one at a great price, go for the xmetal pole. it's strong as hell too.

Stock pole for me never broke one in 10 years. I like the weightless feeling of stock.

How much stress do you put on them? Do you ride surf?
