this is a short review on 4 d-poles, 3 of which are older shafts.
ok so i have stumbled upon a couple of d-poles.
flip grip magnum-
great shaft, it's light, but it's a beast, i recomend it to anyone who can get their hands on one. i wouldn't pay much more then 130, i got mine for 75 and i've never looked back.
gait 803-
insane, you can useually find one online for $80 and it's crazy light, and fairly strong. the grip is cool after the sandpaper effect wears down. also works great as an a/m (looks cool too) i must say i havn't tried any of the variations (ice, tribal grip, vari grip) but you can't get a more solid shaft for the price.
brine scandium-
there's also been a very nice review on this one, i got mine for 120, it's held up great. it can take some hard hits too, and it's also very light. as a shaft, it's really one step lower then a titanium, and for the rice i think it's worth it. i wouldn't pay any more then i did for one.
krypto pro-
this is where my review grows sour, the pro as a pole i don't see as very much lighter then the regular krypto. i got mine for a whopping $90 (on sale) which is a great deal, my friend made his into a crankshaft 10 by checking someone (he says it was a slap, i say it was a cross check) they don't dent, but they bend. if you can get one on the cheaper side it's a good buy.
if this review is violating somthing then please delete it.
just to let anyone in the Pittsfield Mass area know, reynolds team sports (allendale center or w/e) they have all their poles on sale, krypto pro was 90, scandium was also 90 harrow pole was 60
