What would a 13 155 be as a 14ft pole?

i was on a 14' 135.... i moved up well down to a 13' 165... i was only holding 12'3 adn i couldnt move up a grip on that. but ya tha 165 feels a little stiff so i think that the 35 and the 55 r the same
i run, therefore im buff.

I was on a 13'155, actually, and then moved to a 14'140

Same handgrip too... Atleast that's what the NE pole vault expert (Coach Hoogasian of Holy Cross) told me to do... and it works fine...so I'm assuming that's the equivalent.

its probably not a good idea to go from a 13 foot pole to a 15 foot pole

If you are only on a 13 155 you don't need to be thinking about 15 foot poles :P

Sure because a 14'140 would be the next pole. A 14'135 would be approximately the same pole.

15'115

10 pounds stiffness per 6 inches of grip... but once you get wayy down in grip on the pole it doesn't really work as well.
