Now that we have the Metolius Roll Up Stick Clip Kit, gone are the days of the painter's pole walking stick that gets caught on low-hanging branches and telescoping poles that don't quite fit in our pack or take on dents that make us fight for extension. This innovative design looks like and takes up just as much space as a roll of duct tape to conveniently dump inside our pack for the approach. Once at the wall, we twist the end piece on the rivet, thread on the Superclip, and start to unroll the pole, which gives us up to 9. 8 feet of length to easily clip the first bolt.
