Need new pole(s)

[OVHSpv]

I have an athlete jumping on an older skypole 13'6 140lb. His grip is about 9'' under the limit and the pole performs well. He has the speed and plant to move his handgrip up, but when he does, the pole squishes and can't push him through his top end. He weighs about 138 and about 5'11. I want to get him 1-2 new poles to work with. I want him to raise his handgrip. any ideas on new poles?

I'd go with a 13'6 150 and 14'150, he still has a ways to work up his grip on the 13'6 poles, and a 13'6 150 will be useful to more boys than a 14'140.

Thanks. Should I stick with the same brand pole he is using now??

That usually gives ypu the best transition between poles. When you order new poles, make sure to tell them the flex # of the pole you currently have.
