5D Question.

[Wooks]

So I'm getting a pole just for messing around (I wanna play attack), and I want it to have ridiculous hold. I know 5D has the best hold out of all the diamonds, but does it make as good of a "bag" pocket? All the "bag" pockets I've seen use doubled-up 10D. Is this simply because 5d is less popular, or does it not form as well? How could I get it to form a pocket like that?

Edit: If you have a 5D bag, I'd really appreciate pics of it :-)

5d isnt exactly the best mesh to have a bag with. i'd say the lowest to go is 6D. its a good combo of both hold, "baggability"(HAHA!?!?!)
i'm getting a pic of mine now.
EDIT: here it is.

definitely do not get 5D mesh, go for 6 at the least, as murder said, because 6 mesh has probably the best consistency in bad weather out of any of the diamond meshes. Aswell has amazing shot speed and hold.

The downfall with 5 diamond is that it has a loss of shot speed. But in my experience is the easiest mesh to break in.

So i definitely recommend 6 diamond mesh to you instead of 5 diamond.

Edit: My bad, thanks for the input.

they wont close it on account of this is not brands but merely a type of mesh, and it didnt offend me because i know it wont get closed because those are facts, and if it is a mess around stick then you would want it to be consisent in bad weather, because you wont be using your good stick in that weather, now will you???

[murderlax]

well maybe you two should be calling each other out on mesh, or whether or not it'll get closed.
just stay on topic so it wont get closed.
