Is the diameter of the x6 any different from the x9. Finding it difficult to hang on to the boom after a few runs, definitely lack of forearm strength. Love to stay out all day...but.

They are both the same diameter as far as Im aware of.
The diameter of the boom arms does become larger towards the rear of the boom for extra stiffness. Now here near where you would hang on though.

No probs, thanx for the help, I wasn't sure when np mentioned that the 135, 145, 160 were reduced diameter but it does state the speccies. ta

I thought the x6's were fatter.
You have to watch that because if you change between the two it messes with the` positioning of your callouses.
The x9 is the stiffest boom out I reckon.
