Hard to gain leverage with a grasp and scissor type of head for larger limbs, palm fronds, or seed pods at any price. Have used a telescoping pole saw from polesawdirect.com for 5 years now. Telescopes from 8 to 32 ft. Works quite nicely to take down large seed pods and cutting palm fronds at their base. To trim further out on a limb or frond which is narrower and where there is too much motion, you may use their changeable head which comes with it, which is the grasp and slice type of action. Also if you don't like the telescoping type, you may try Americantreeservicesupply.com and try their PSS30 model. It extends to 37 feet by using lightweight 6 foot aluminum sections. Storage of the 6 six foot aluminum sections must be considered.
