I think a fungo sounds kinda fun to jump on....but I'm not planning on doing any jousting so I will pass on the lancet...

I know that on the stabhoch.com site there is a way to get to a link that shows this older lady making a pole, it's written all in German, so is that lancet or something else? I think it is pretty interesting to watch the picture series though.

Yes that is Lancet

Interesting method they start with cloth and add Resin to the pole while on the mandrel. They even spiral like PACER

Makes the poles heavy but economical process.
