need clarification

[eaglelax4]

i know everyone says klytes are good buy for poles
but i was wondering if it was because they last a long time
or because they last a long time for the price you pay? (as in they don't last as long)

[MaverikWnderBoy]

Yeah the last quitwe a long tiome dent fairly easily and are a great deal, but not sure thats just what ive heard from teammates

[eaglelax4]

they do dent easily?

[Attack Man]

yea they are great poles. better than the kpro's mine has no dents, no anything after a year, but i dont play defence a lot but i lend it to teamates sometimes.
edit: they dont dent easy.

[shadowelite84]

if anything, put in a little more and get a kpro

[Titanoh]

My pole has been through 2 seasons. Just scratchs, no dents, no bends. Warrior has made 1 good shaft.
Don't get a Kpro, they have thinner sidewalls, my friends has a hefty ammount of scratchs and dents.

[eaglelax4]

cause i need a pole now
and ive heard great things about this shaft so i was going to try to talk my parents into it
but my back-up options are the magnum flipgrip and the ignite optra c555(not 7080 sc)

[Attack Man]

kpro is a waste.. just get a kylte. ignites dent pretty easy.. dont know about magnum tho.

[oviedolax]

where have you found a mag flippy?

what are you talking about the kpro and klyt in a d pole break like a twig but they are very light for a d pole

[Titanoh]

Uhh...no
If you miss treat them they do (Ie, leaning on them, putting your gear on them, leaving them in extremly heated areas.)

[eaglelax4]

so does anyone have a say out of which one of those three will last longer?

[Titanoh]

The Mag Flippy is offly cheap. I can't vouge for the durability, ask someone that has one.
Out of the K-series, Klyte.

[defense4life13]

yea if those magnums are any good im gonna grab one there so cheep. i just need somone to tell me if they are decent or not

[eaglelax4]

should i throw out the optra as an option? no one has really said anything about it

[Kr3wLaxUno]

i think that the klyte is pretty baller dude but thats just me

[Tedster33]

go to sportstop.com and just buy a f22...great shaft....C405 for 40 bucks...better shaft and hella cheaper

not meaning to hijack this thread but i was wondering the same thing, and was wonderin how good wonderboys are for d pole?

[lacrossemonkey8]

id say get a warrior platinum, they seem to hold up well as dpoles, are lightish, and are cheap.

Some say they last, some say the crack, and bend, it depends on how you play. I plan on getting one for my next shafts. The 06-07 versions seemed to crack, the 08' versions were "beefed up".

[eaglelax4]

i want a stronger metal than the platinum, and can anyone vouch for the f22, magnum, or ignite optra?

[Jesse]

I have used a Klyte for 2 years now. It has only go 2 dings in it, but its pretty bent sown near the butt end. Ive had two now break on my body and arm. They are nice, but depends on how hard you go at the game.

can anyone vouch for the f22, magnum, or ignite optra?
Magnum was my 2nd shaft. Had it for 5 years. Its very nice. Seriously worth it.

[Kr3wLaxUno]

what ever you do dont get the generic brine d-pole from last year it sucked male parts
100th post WOOT WOOT!!

[indians8]

I have a Klyte and I find it very, very durable. Although it scratches easily, they don't dent easily. I decided to spend a little extra on the STX Scandium (which I like alot) but if you are looking for a pole < $100 the Klyte is by far the best.

how are wonderboys in comparison to klytes?

[Titanoh]

how are wonderboys in comparison to klytes?
Lighter, and Im guessing by a friends, about the same strenght, maybe less.
