[dwcforever]

looking at buying a 13'9" altuis, what would the top hand placement be?

[jr]

should be 13'6. all the 13'9 poles we have the label is at the top.

The older Altius poles had the weight label / max handhold line 3" from the top of the pole (like the newer Gill poles with the yellow labels). The more recent Altius poles I've purchased are labeled like a UCS pole, closer to 6" from the top. You should contact Altius directly and ask them if it's important. Here is the contact information:

3" yellow label is only 1 1/2" on Gill Poles -- but I have that same measurement system with my wife -- will be there in 15 min -- etc.
