Looking for 7' ajustable tarp pole on 08/17/2011 06:48:59 MDT Print View

I need an adjustable tarp pole that adjusts from about 6.5' to 7.5'. The closest I have found is the Golite long pole at 80". I could go with this one and add an extension or another adjuster tube on the top section. I have been quoted $100 for a carbon fiber pole, but would like to keep the cost under $50.

These guys do custom lengths and the poles are carbon fiber:

Ooops- didn't read your entire post. This would cost more than $50 and is probably what you already looked at.

I tried the kelty pole on 08/17/2011 08:38:08 MDT Print View

It was on amazon and the description said "light weight". I sent it back.

There a seller on ebay for Luxe Outdoor. I contacted that seller before to buy the longer Luxe Outdoor tent pole. I believe I paid $20 plus shipping. That pole extends from just under 7' up to just over 8'.
