a fast agressive swing will also force you to be on bigger poles, and Adam has a pretty good swing from all the videos I've seen :yes:

...but I don't know how he carries that tree trunk of a pole down the runway :dazed:

I must agree...Carbons are like toothpicks...Up at school I jump on a 16'180 spirit and that is really a tree trunk!

I forgot to post the biggest pole i've jumped on

5m 16.5 flex Spirit - NFI what the weight rating was

I've actually taken a jump on a 5m 16.0, but got rejected pretty hard

I jumped my PR on a 16' 190 16.6 spirit

i weighed between 170 and 175 then

do you guys prefer larger or smaller mandrel sizes? for me, i like having a thicker pole, just my preference...just wondering what everyone else is like cause i hear a LOT of people say they think they skinnier the better

i'm on 5m 15.7-14.2, i have a 16.2 that is a 190, so i'm guessing a 16.5 flex is roughly 190, maybe a stiff 185

the 5m 14.2 is a 205,
