Fiberglass certainly does flex better then aluminum. I can't remember the last aluminum fishing pole I've seen. The one weak link with the fiberglass antennas are the metal couplers pressed or epoxied onto the fiberglass ends. I know of many people who have found the top part of their Antron 99 in their back yard when mowing the lawn. On the brighter side I've seen that the Imax 2000 has better mechanical joints. If you want an antenna that can really handle the extremes Mother Nature can throw at it, about the best choice would be the Interceptor 10K.
