Please provide particulars such as your weight, height, grip, 100m speed, PR.
If you have grown since last season, or plan to increase your speed or grip, please indicate what your particulars were then and now.

Technically they are the same pole if you hold at the same spot. one foot down on the 155 would be about 20lb. But if you were holding the top of the 14' and bending it too much you may just want the 175. If you are bending it but going into the pit with lots of penitration then you can use the 15' 155 so you can move you hand hold up. Personaly what I would try to do Is get where I could hold max on 14' 175, then match the hand grip on the 15' and jump with that, then slowly move up hand grip on 15' until it became too soft or you have reached an ideal level of penitration ie. standars on 60 or more.
