Spiral X construction enhances torsional rigidity without adding extra weight, resulting in an extremely responsive action that allows for instant power transmission whilst jigging and greatly enhances fish fighting capabilities. Hi-Power X enhances overall strength and reduces blank twisting when adopting a fighting curve. These cutting edge blanks are fitted with Fuji Alconite K-Type guides plus a Fuji SiC tip guide, for excellent line management, and an ultra strong Fuji DPS / T-DPS /Shimano Ci4+ Perfection reel seats depending on model and split grip EVA handles.SPIRAL X:- Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano´s patented Spiral X construction enhances catching power for anglers. Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a middle layer of vertical fibers as well as inner and outer layers, both comprised of carbon tape that tightly winds the blank diagonally in opposite directions. By using this carbon tape in place of a conventional horizontal fiber sheet, Spiral X achieves enhanced compression rigidity and increased torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fish fighting.HI-POWER X:- Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of ´´X´´ shapes on the rod blank´s outermost layer. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. This manufacturing process allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control for the angler.Specifications:- Total Length (ft): 6´0´´- Total Length (m): 1.83- No. Of Pieces: 2- Close length (cm): 137.9- Weight (g): 145- Jig weight
