Don’t think you can compare them as total different , we have the elite sky vac poles and to be honest they arnt as good as the carbon fibre tubes ones they are much stronger and stiffer with no bendWould be interesting to know how GVS Aluminium compares to SkyVac Elite poles..
GVS ones are 51mm and weigh 500gms per 4ft (1.2m) pole most of the carbon poles are 5ft (1.5m). 1 advantage of the 1.2m poles for me is that they fit width ways in my 2019 Partner van, the 1.5m poles wont fit width ways.I have elites and old aluminium poles. Elites are pretty fragile so have to be careful with them and the diameter of the elites is smaller than my old aluminums. If the GVS aluminums are more rigid and have a bigger diameter next time round I might go for them as they last forever.
@bobski I have never used aluminium poles because I found them a bit cumbersome when I had a look (although they'd probably take a bit more rough handling than carbon would). I don't do many gutter clears, but I think I'd really struggle without the carbon poles to be honest.As anyone switched from Ali to Carbon poles, was it worth it TIA
GVS also do 1m version: Carbon Mini - 1m Carbon Fibre Pole Section - Gutter Vacuum SystemsGVS ones are 51mm and weigh 500gms per 4ft (1.2m) pole most of the carbon poles are 5ft (1.5m). 1 advantage of the 1.2m poles for me is that they fit width ways in my 2019 Partner van, the 1.5m poles wont fit width ways.
You are right but that would be an expensive way of buying poles.GVS also do 1m version: Carbon Mini - 1m Carbon Fibre Pole Section - Gutter Vacuum Systems
