If I can't get an UHL, I'll go with PD as I can get it from SG.
What model in the PD range has the same power level as a UHL?
As for the gym, I train 3 times a week and for now squatting 90kg.
Brandon Khoo:
maybe Aaron can comment on this seeing he has a UHL and is familiar with the range of PDs
The only person I know who has a Fire Vortex now is Gordon Low - maybe Aaron can tell us what weight he can squat (I'm not being facetious, by the way)

hi there
oh kevin i have been looking for the UHL of course i love the carpenter but i can,t get one cos they are hard to get so i have gave it up and end up with the PD black diamond 77
( P.S i am 85kg )
i talked to Aaron as i was told that the PD black diamond 77 is alike the UHL maybe a bit stronger not sure but Aaron own them both so he can tell the different (Aaron should be about 95kg)
i would stay away from the fire vortex too much power on it i not think i can hold on :D :D
Kevin Li:
Hi, thanks for the feedback. I'm 77kg and still will be pushing more on the squat as I've been training for 7 months now. I've to be realistic that pushing twice my body weight on the press would be nearly impossible!
The fighting would definitely be a problem as you guys are heavier than I am and are happy with the black diamond 77. What is stunning is that there's also a black mafia which is suppose to be AAA rating! I think what ever I choose I will be ok with the casting.
BTW, are the rod weight light compared to other brands?
How does it split up in two? Handle+ tip?

Kevin, these are the heavy weights when compared to other Japanese brands,
Eg. Fire vortex 540gm, black diamond 77 500gm. over 100gm on some of the other high-end Japanese producers.
They part at the handle like the others
