I have a teenage son (15 years 110 lbs) who is out of pole. he has went thru the following progression of poles: 10ft 110, 11ft 100, 11ft 110, 12ft 100, 12ft 110, 12.6 110 MY QUESTION IS HOW DO i KNOW IF I SHOULD GO TO A LONGER OR HEAVIER POLE. (13FT POLE OR 120 TO 130 WEIGHT) HE IS BENDING THE POLE CLOSE TO 90 DEG. and jumping around 12 feet but not landing extremely deep in the pit. Standards are around 18 to 20 inches when jumping. thanks for the help
