Pacer III

Unread postby MightyMouse » Fri Sep 02, 2005 12:30 pm

Would there be anything wrong with jumping a on a 14 165 17.0 pacer III, in a meet on sunday. I need a pole to warm up on before i move up sticks.

Theres alot of peeling and tape scratches, but looks like no burises.

Yes, there would be a lot wrong with that. it would be very dangerous not to mention illegal. you should not jump on that pole

instead, ship it to me and ill test it out from my very short run and get back to you on how it goes.

No, there is nothing wrong or illegal about that pole. Just make sure it is not chipped or scratched too deep.
