Why are some poles darker shades than others in my series?

The design process of the carbon pole is to vary the location of the carbon with the layers within the body wrap to increase the stiffness. This allows us to use 150-GM & 300-GM weighted Carbon for many weight ratings. The closer the carbon is to the surface, the darker & vis-a-versa. This technology helps for the best lamination of the carbon between layers of fiberglass. The perfect pole!

This a guide to help you place a power number on your poles & know what poles will be in the sequence order of stiffness. Further study will help you see that if you hold a grip of 13' and weigh 155, jumping on a 13'7" 155, power #34, one could use a 13'1" 165 power #34 with a lesser handgrip by 2 inches and get 12 lbs more thrust to the hip lift & possibly push off at least a foot over your grip with this new energy return. It would be the same pole at the same handgrip. However, the 13'1-165 will have 10 lbs more lifting ability than the 13'7 -155. All things being equal, you will time with the pole & jump higher!

Władysław Kozakiewicz. He broke the World record twice in the Olympics & CAPTURED A GOLD MEDAL on these FiberSport Poles.

In 2016, We drove three ESSX Sport poles on the side of my car to a vaulter to help him to have the right tools & the correct vaulting pole. He went on to be a Two-Time World Champion! We have helped many athletes and ask for your help to continue the adventure.
