Pacer Carbon vs. Carbon Fx

Unread postby NovaVault » Wed Apr 09, 2003 10:45 pm

What is the weight difference from the old Pacer Carbons to the new Carbon Fx's. I have been jumping on a 15' 170 Carbon FX and I am looking to move up to a stiffer pole. The next two poles I have are a 15' 175 Skypole Carbon and a 15' 180 pacer carbon. What is the difference between these two poles and the one I'm jumping on?

All poles are rated based on a relative stiffness (flex). So what you have is a 170, 175, 180 that will perform a little different but are approximatly 5 lbs apart. You could always call Gill to find out any fine points you may need to know about the 3 poles.
