Hi,
I am curently on a 135lb. 12'4'' pole, and I was wondering if there is a carbon pole out there around 12'6'' and the same weight.
.
.
Also how can this affect my vault.
-more bend?
-more recoil?

Carbon just makes the carry weight lighter. I am guessing you are on an Altius. They can feel heavy. Make your next pole a new fiberglass 12'4 ESSX or 12'6 Pacer or Mystic and you'll feel a world of difference. You don't need carbon, just a lighter fiberglass.
