How do these two 11'6 poles compare?

Unread postby rainbowgirl28 » Thu May 17, 2007 8:39 pm

I need someone who has used 11'6 Mystics and ESSX poles...

11’6 - 127.6 - 22.2 - X ESSX
11’6 - 130 - 19.9 - Mystic

Anyone want to take a stab at which one is stiffer? I would just jump on them myself, but I leave tomorrow for Europe and these are the poles of one of my club kids.

the mystic is 7 lbs stiffer
the flex number are not on the same scale and cannot be used to measure the differances ESSX 11'6" is on a 11
scale
