The professional PLATINUM booms are characterized by a carbon construction that meets the highest standards with respect to weight and stiffness. To meet even the highest requirements, we distinguish between Wave and Freestyle lengths from 1.40 to 1.50 m and greater Slalom and Formula lengths of 1.80 m to 2.60 m. The shorter models feature the proven PRO.GRESSION III head with shorter torsion bars, which delivers high absorption especially after jumps. The long PLATINUM models have a PRO.GRESSION.RACE front piece with shorter torsion bars for a more direct, yet controlled power transmission. An individualistic touch was also given to the rear piece: For maximum grip comfort, the short platinum models feature an inserted end piece, while the long versions have a large OVERSIZED.OUTSIDE end piece for unparalleled bending stiffness. The short and long versions also differ in tube diameter: extra grip with 28 mm for lengths up to 1.50 m, and super-stiff 30 mm diameter for longer booms.
