G10 Replacemint

[snagger]

Heard from a reliable source at at the weekend that the new G10 replacement might be out for June,and at the same price,will take some replacing the G10 mind.

[billy the squid s.t.aParticipant]

“Impossible” You can’t replace something that is the best at everything in the whole of the world!

[TF_craigm]

I’ve heard the same, out for June/July but have heard it will be about £2600 to start with.

[snagger]

Got to agree with billy the squid the G10 will take some replacing, will have a word with my source about the price craig.

[pigslayer]

if the gmax1000 on the continent is anything to go by,its guna be heavier than the g10.

[TF_maker]

[TF_maker]

Sorry mike cant pm, £200 for them both, collection or local meet up only pal.

G10…they’re apparently replacing it with a highly new concept in garbo technology ,it’s called ‘a scaffold pole,’
its marginally lighter than it’s precessor even with its welded joints!should be worth its weight in lead then!!~clap

[mo-can do]

comes with its own pump truck to transport it to yer peg….

[TF_freddy the frog]

will it be self breaking or will it be like my airity where you have to actually be holding it LOL!!!!!!!!!!

I have been told the first batch of Gmax 1000 poles are due in the UK, the last week in Feb….

Same package as G10, except the match kits have been replaced with competition matchlite kits with added no4 sections to make them effective top 4’s

[snagger]

Big gaz is spot on Gmax 1000 in shops late Feb,gaz have you heard any prices, i was told not much more than G10.

[TF_Big GazParticipant]

i’m being told about £2500, but this is yet to be confirmed

[snagger]

The gmax 1000 arrives the end of Feb, 25 poles only, 1 pole will be allocated to each of the 25 shops through out the country, new pole heavier than the G10 but will be even stiffer at its longest lengths.The next batch of poles end of may, similar spares package to G10 and the price is approx £2400(ouch).the G10 will still be available but only made to order, told Darren has had his Gmax for about a month now.

[TF_Big GazParticipant]

Heavier doesn’t sound good…. I was hoping it would be lighter as I was a big fan of the G995. I wanted the Gmax1000 to be somewhere between the two.

As stiff as the G10, but lighter

I will wait and see when it arrives. Is £2400 teh suggested selling price

[snagger]

Yes heavier, that has put me off a bit aswell but like you said gaz will have to wait and see and yes £2400 suggested selling price.

[TF_craigm]

Thats the Z9 safe then, if its heavier than the G10 its no good to me. I got rid of the G10 due to the weight and the rigidity made it a nightmare in the wind.

[TF_Big GazParticipant]

I have not seen a Z9 as we don’t have many shops stocking Browning for what ever reason… must add it to my list of poles to look at for 2010

[TF_Big GazParticipant]

The list so far

Sensas 86 XL
Colmic X5000
Maver 501
Garbolino Gmax1000
Browning Z9

[TF_Slider]

I have seen the new Garbo, not the finished article but certainly one of the ones that was well along the field testing route.

VERY stiff, will be keen to take a look.
