What size pole to use?

I have been told by multiple people that i need to go up to a bigger pole. I agree with them though because i have started knocking the bar off with the standards all the way back at 32 1/2" and landing deep on the mats. I was using a 13'130lb pole and then tried a 13'135 and still was blowing through. So i was going to try and find a 13'140 to use. But would a 14'130 or 14'135 work as well?

A 14' 130 would be similar to a 13' 150. I would not make this big a jump in poles. Try to go up in 5 pound increments.

If possible try a 14' 120 which would be similar to a 13' 140.

You're jumping 8'9"? You don't need a 14' pole.
