14-6 to 15' pole question

Unread postby mjaubbs40 » Sun Feb 04, 2007 3:03 pm

Just curious about thoughts regarding going from a 14-6/165 Pacer Carbon to a 15/155 Pacer III. I figure it's pretty close with a higher sail and potentially more grip.

We also have a 15/160 Pacer III available.

I have a 14' 6" Pacer (Not Carbon) and 15' 155 and 160 Spirits and a 15' 160 Pacer III (my favorite except for my new ESSX 14' 7 178). You are right about the 14'6 165 being equivalent to the 15' 155. It should be an easy transition.

those sound good, just 3 fingers to a grip up.
