Super sensitivity NEXT LEVEL that can only be caught with metal

Skybolt is the ultimate shaking rod that skillfully controls line slack and overturns the fishing of light rigs that are brought to the bite under tough conditions. Even with line slack out, the tubular blank of “SMT”, which has excellent hand sensitivity, and the highly elastic SVF Compile X, which has excellent vibration transmission, makes it possible to clearly capture the bite and bottom that could not be captured until now. In addition to the low elasticity and high specific gravity that are the material characteristics of SMT tubular, a stainless steel frame guide with high specific gravity and high rigidity is set only at the tip part, and the main blank is equipped with 3DX that suppresses blurring in the highly elastic compile X. By doing so, the slack shake that shakes only the tip of “SMT” is excellent. A line slack that can not be done with a rod that is good at high-speed bibibi shake like convulsions is put out, and a soft shake that suppresses the presence of the line without moving the rig is possible. With the weight balance of the tip of “SMT” and the special guide setting, both the slack shake and the micro pitch shake at the opposite end can be achieved at a high level with one. Not only shakes with rigs and sinkers on the bottom, but also midst and botost, the front atari with slack that is hard to feel even with a rod dedicated to midst is clearly felt by “SMT”, and its low resilience tip Before you release it, you can slack firmly, and if you suddenly visit the counter bite, you can slack without playing the supple tip. In addition, it is easy to put weights when the tip of “SMT” with heavy specific gravity swings, and by bending the blank of compile X with strong repulsion, it will sharply fly a lightweight rig. In addition to the operation light rig, it is also very effective for light caro that makes use of its length and supple tip.

Super sensitivity NEXT LEVEL that can only be caught with metal

DAIWA’s unique tip technology, SMT (= SUPER METAL TOP), is a superelastic titanium alloy that boasts superelastic properties that return even when bent. Unlike carbon, it realizes so-called “metallic hand sensitivity” that utilizes the vibration transmission unique to metal. In the predecessor STEEZ, many models that realize the ultimate sensitivity utilizing this characteristic have been completed from early on.
“With each development, the sensitivity becomes even more extreme.”

14FASTHAWK, 15FIREHAWK, and 16SKYFLASH SMT. Naoto Kawaguchi has scrutinized all of them and finished it into an ultra-sensitive machine. Known as the guardian of STEEZ Finesse, he aimed for the next polar region with a masterpiece called “21SKYBOLT”, which can be said to be the final evolution of 12SKYBOLT.

The biggest feature of SMT is that it has the sensitivity to transmit metallic vibration to your hand even when line slack is out. Again, I would like to emphasize this characteristic above all else. And if it is a metal, it has a higher specific gravity than carbon, and in a sense, there is a demerit.

In the past, it is also true that a rod design that converts the minus into a plus has been required. However, 21SKYBOLT dared to switch to a paradoxical idea that maximizes its weight.
“With a small amount of input, the tip moves continuously without permission. Micro pitch shake is free.”

A single shake amplifies the vibration and converts it into a repetitive motion. It also supports repetition by mounting a guide that increases the weight such as MNST on the top and KB guide after that on the tip part. The metallic sensitivity of SMT connects to SVF COMPILE-X from Berry to Bat, making it possible to transmit even the slightest changes to the hand.
“The moment you pick it up, it’s a bat that’s strong against fluffy tips. However, once the rig is in the water, it has tremendous potential.”

Of course, swimming systems such as Midst, Botost, and Hobust show excellent responsiveness to all light rigs that sense slight changes in the bottom. It demonstrates its power in the finesse approach, centering on various rigs of 1 / 16oz. Sinker, which is the basis of all parts of the country.
“The world of light rigs, which I thought was no more, has evolved again.”

You can expect the ultimate machine that goes far beyond Kawaguchi’s ideals.

DAIWA TECHNOLOGY

■ SVF COMPILE X

In the carbon sheet that most affects the rod performance, the amount of resin (resin) is reduced and carbon fiber is densely packed to achieve weight reduction, power-up, and slimming. The strong repulsive force brings sharp swing performance and high sensitivity that the lure action can be grasped.

■ X45 Full Shield (= X45 Cobra Shield)

The X45 Full Shield completely eliminates twists that occur during dynamic movements such as casting, action, hooking, and fighting. Twisting rigidity is dramatically improved by tightening from the outermost layer, which is the most effective carbon bias cloth at 45 ° from the tip of the blank, which is most prone to twisting. Bring out the original performance of the cast accuracy and rod more than ever.

3DX

■ 3DX

3DX = 3-axis cloth is carbon of 3-axis woven fabric that works by evenly receiving forces from 3 directions. Crosses with a structure in which regular hexagons are lined up have the same force against forces from all directions, so they have excellent shape restoration force. An ideal support material that covers the rod body like stockings, suppresses distortion of the blanks during casting, and demonstrates the original performance of the blanks. Due to the synergistic effect with the thin and thick blank, it has the potential to float the ranker size with wrinkles and catch it reliably.

“SMT (Super Metal Top)” uses elastic titanium alloy and realizes amazing sensitivity that is impossible with carbon material. The superelastic titanium alloy that transmits vibration for a long time is made into a tubular (hollow) or solid (muku) structure according to each rod type, and carbon and glass materials are hybridized to pursue the ideal tone.
