I am needing to know the flex ranges for 16' 170, 175, 180, and 185 Carbons. I would also like to know if there is anything different from the regular Carbons with the Fiberlight Carbons. Any help would be appreciated.

we have a 180 thats a 19.5
a 180 thats a 19.2
a 185 thats a 18.5
a 185 thats a 17.8
a 190 thats a 17.1
a 195 thats a 16.4

these are all x flexes

ive got a 16' 175 19.7

Ive got - Pacer carbons in

16' 165 at 21
16' 195 at 15.8
16' 200 at 15

I also heard that Jeremy Scott broke a hand full of the unltra light carbons.... Don't know if that means anything...

I have two new manufactured 16-1 c-fxs a 150 and 155: flex is 22.5

These flex numbers are irrelevant without the brand and type of pole made they are from?
ESSX and Spirit are very close on the flex numbers.
Gill on the other hand has a complete different set of values and I beleive it is also difficult with the way the ultra light is made to compare an ultralight with another Gill Carbon or S glass pole!!

yep yep yep. My experience says your kidding yopurself if your comparing UCS to Gill Fx, as Bruce stated. Heck forget Flexs....ratings aren't even comparable (2.5 -5+ lbs different feel and action to the vaulter) I wish I had experience with Bruce's poles. I hear good things, from smart people. ...especially when transistioning up the line of say 14 series or 15 series. of poles. Nice sail piece designs- and implemented consistantly in the factory build process.

ESSX makes carbon poles as well, hence the confusion. If you are talking about Gill's carbons you should say CarbonFX or Pacer Carbon.

My mistake.... Ill keep that in mind.
