In detail
The Helix Telescopic Carbon Poles are designed for Urban and Maritime tactical operations, where operators need to easily reach inaccessible areas under extreme conditions. Made from 3K carbon fibre, these poles are lightweight, extremely compact, quiet and smooth - all features which are essential when carrying out covert vertical access operations.
When used in conjunction with compatible hooks and flexible fabric or wire ladders these provide units with the ability to avoid ground floor entry points using a system that is easily carried and quick to deploy with minimal training burden.
The 4.5m pole system has been designed to allow access to first floor access points and the 8.5m system will reach second floor windows, balconies and terraces.
- Cameras
- Pongoose Head – this allows carabiners to be attached so that the pole can be used as a rescue pole or clip stick
The pole can be purchased either individually or as a complete system which includes a flexible tactical ladder, carabiners and hook.
The 8.5m pole also works very efficiently with the Highnovate Mini Bella and this combination makes operation in tricky conditions – high winds or rough seas – much easier.

Features
The adapter features a unique (Patent Pending) conical internal bore which makes “fishing” to recover the hook much easier and faster. In addition, other adapters are available that allow use with: • Cameras • Pongoose Head – this allows carabiners to be attached so that the pole can be used as a rescue pole or clip stick.
The head also allows a Go-Pro style camera to be mounted alongside the hook so that operators can see into the access point as well as checking the security of the hook placement.
As standard the poles come with an adapter that makes them compatible with a wide range of hooks including those from REBS, Yates, Cadex and DMM – in fact any tactical hook that has a either a PIGG attachment or an attachment system using 4-5mm rods.
