Thinking just gettin rack and keep 20ā extension (with leveler)
Yes by a great amount Iād say.
I used to lug around the gorilla ladder, or godzilla I donāt remember the name but that fold up ladder from Holmes Depot and Lowes Riders. That 300 dollar monstrosity.
That was back when I had guns in my sleeves.
A couple guys who worked for me had them and it took some getting used to with the tapered tops but once you do get used to them youāll never go back.
Like when you got your first water fed pole, then when you got your brand new carbon fiber. You SEE and FEEL the difference.
Its a window cleaners ladder, no doubt about it.
But they also get stolen faster too, so make sure you lock that baby up. Some thick cable and a good lock should slow them down so they make enough noise for you to make sure you keep your ladder.
New law supposedly this year tho, because I went and got a new stack a few months ago. They say you can only stack 3 and 1/2 pieces now. (I got 4 and a half) Just an FYI. Its only for me, so I really havent cared enough to look into it to find out how true that is, so take that as just rumor.
That type of ladder is a death trap, seen so many failed locking clamps that the ladder collapses, I am truly surprised the company hasnāt been sued out of business.
A free video for my friends still working with Little Giant ladders.

Do they have a video of how to remove all the dust it collects once you get a sectional?
Aww, I was hoping youād post the one where he fell. That was funny right there.
Didnāt you hear? If you donāt do things my way, then youāre just wrong and/or lazy.
Seriously the LG is very popular. People loveām. They have their benefits
I canāt tell you how many times Iāve pinched the skin on my hand sliding those stupid sections in and out!
It made me a ton of money for sure, honestly tho, with the fatigue factor Iād be willing to put money on it that Iād have made more if I used a stack ladder when I first started.
This is true! ^^
I used sectionals for about ten years my first time around as a window cleaner. When I got back into window cleaning I had to start out with a LG ladder knock off. It didnāt take me long to buy a set of sectionals because I knew what I was missing. Man that LG ladder was HEAVY!
The ladder reminded me of the French Revolution guillotines. I thought I was going to loose a finger every time I broke it down. Haha
well hereās what i have learned about sectional ladders on this forumā¦
sectional ladders are not only light, they will give your solution better glide, your rubber will never wear out and you will never have to detail again. once you get good with your sectional, i mean really good they will actually wash the windows FOR YOU! you just pull up, toss the ladder toward the house and relax for few minutes.
personally i would likely get one but i decided on a different form of magicā¦the wfp. with this magic device i justā¦

Ken, it also makes you lunch.
In the meantime, while you were contemplating, I finished your move in about 30 seconds setup time.
(I do agree about the long term feet pain thing.)
Piece ladders are definitely āhit n runā type movesā¦ anything long term, and they suck.
See, you come along and do it and I still donāt need the ladder. Booyah
I donāt care what kind of ladder it is. If I can walk up it with no hands Iāll use it.
This might be not possible on sectionals
I used to do that, and you are right, with pieces it sucks.
The rungs will tear your hands up.
I occasionally get a smartass who tries to do it, and I say āOk, you can do that if you can stop yourself midway.ā
Because if you cant, its nothing more than a semi controlled fall.
The preson in the video was able to slow himself downā¦ so I will give a ālegit enoughā to him.
