Cobra RS

  • concept

The famous Cobra evolved dramatically with the TORAYCA® T1100G.
Achieves the highest level of sensitivity and castability through a synergistic effect with our original guide system.

Cobra RS

Cobra has become a synonym for Versatile rods, with superb casting accuracy, super-techniques that maximize the pleasure of driving into pin spots. In the previous model Cobra DG, thick dense carbon graphite was adopted, and the castability performance with pleasure was sought by the swinging torque that blows up, but in order to demonstrate the ultimate performance in the top tournament more stably Cobra made a bold evolution as RS Limited.

A world of top tournaments that cast hundreds and thousands of casts a day. Cobra RS Limited emphasizes the extraordinary comfort. In order to achieve the ultimate practical light weight, strength, stickiness, sharpness, and sensitivity improvement, we have created the ultimate tournament gear with generous cutting-edge materials and the latest theories.

The main blanks have a composition ratio of 70%, and the Torayca® T1100G 33-ton carbon is used as a hybrid. The lightness, sensitivity, sharpness and strength of the T1100G are ground-mixed with Cobra’s original 24-ton carbon. Furthermore, the latest titanium frame, torzeite ring, and double foot guide (non-micro guide) are equipped throughout the body. Lightweight and thin despite its rugged double foot guide, it greatly contributes to the extra strength and lightness of blanks.

In addition, the adoption of the Torzeite ring, which has an inner diameter comparable to that of older guides, increases the flexibility of the line, increases sensitivity such as lure action and bite sign, and is thicker than 12 pounds, which is frequently used for scrolls. It also plays a role in improving line castability.

The grip uses a separate grip of AAA champagne cork that demonstrates the sensitivity amplification effect, pursuing practical sensitivity and thorough lightweight. Even when combined with the lightest high-performance reel, there is no feeling of weight or discomfort, and above all, a perfect weight distribution that allows you to enjoy the cast itself is realized.

For fishing that requires long rides, continuity and accuracy, such as braided jigs, spinner baits, crank baits, pencil baits, and medium-sized crawler baits, as well as shad tail no sinkers and swimming in Light Texas Optimal. Inspire Cobra RS Limited’s accurate accuracy and nimble castability, especially in single-hand casts, will give you the best angler performance with minimal physical and mental burden.

RS & GT development story

  • blank
    Lightweight due to a hybrid structure of 33 tons carbon (approx. 70%) and medium elasticity 24 tons carbon (approx. 30%) applying “Nanoalloy® technology” to the high-strength and high-modulus carbon fiber “Torayca®“ T1100G ”” A grand mix of stickiness to sensitivity, sharpness and strength. In order to generate power by bending the entire blank, the thin low taper blank is designed to be thick without using the 4-axis manufacturing method.

  • Guide system
    Titanium frame, torzeite ring and double foot guide that combine lightness and toughness are used for all guides.

    Adopting a larger caliber instead of the popular micro and semi-micro guides increases lineability and freedom, improves castability, and contributes to sensitivity enhancement such as lure action and bite sign.

    Compared to a single foot guide, the thread that holds the guide foot increases, creating a smooth texture. Furthermore, by arranging the original guide in a direction ahead of the normal balance, a strong swing torque is generated without disturbing the bending of the butt section.

  • Fore grip
    Eliminating the fore grip and realizing further weight reduction. In addition to the winding check of the sharp design, the minimum 4-axis carbon sleeve nut greatly contributes to weight reduction and high sensitivity.
  • Reel seat design
    The reel seat is a thin and lightweight Fuji ECS reel seat with a blank touch method that emphasizes ease of grip and sensitivity.

    The RS Limited series is given a black mica color to create the texture of the finest model.

  • Sign
    The signature included only in the RS Limited series is a special specification (limited version) that Katsutaka Imae has set for use in the tournament.
  • Grip design
    Separate grip specifications that emphasize operability and weight reduction. The RS limited series uses AAA champagne cork, which is hard and contains a lot of air, as the most important center grip material that touches the hand, and is designed to thoroughly reduce weight and improve sensitivity transmission.

    The grip end is fitted with an original end plate with a kaleidoscope motif.
