Re: Need help, Titanium / Carbon Fiber / Aluminum
You should try out a section of a fiberglass fishing pole. (they're cheap) The thinner sections can easily flex 180 degrees without breaking and they're pretty stiff. I picked up one for my team to play with for $6 at our Walmart the other day.

EDIT: I just found its name, Its a Durango Panfish Pole made by shakespeare
