“I want to complete my own game on land with at most 6 games.”
Kotaro Kawamura, a passionate soul who still wants the title of champion on the shore. In 2016, he launched the STEEZ SC (= Shore Competition) series, and has finished three famous rods, FIRE WOLF, KING VIPER, and SC WEREWOLF, but the next thing to look at is the cranking rod. .. It goes without saying that due to the characteristics of a shore game, where it is difficult to keep multiple games on hand, versatileness is the first priority.
“What I wanted was that it could be used widely from shad cranks, which are often used on land, to full size and crawler baits.”
The glass model BL + 661MLFB-G, which was once used a lot for winding, shows good compatibility with the crank in general, but it is neither good nor bad with a lure with weak resistance. On the other hand, low-elasticity carbon Low Modulus models such as 06 & 16BLITZ cannot be expected to be versatile up to large lures. Development was extremely difficult, and many tests were repeated.
“It took me two years to have a wide tolerance, sharp swing, and pick up small vibrations. After repeated small corrections, I finally arrived at the” SVF glass “, which is called a delicate tip. Was the answer. ”
The delicate tip, which uses a glass material with a lower elastic modulus than carbon, does not spoil any lure movement, and exhibits excellent followability when biting, and exhibits the characteristic of “getting on your own if you flip it over”. Among the glass materials, the Gratec structure with SVF glass, which has reduced the amount of resin to the utmost limit, has also succeeded in significantly increasing the winding sensitivity.
In addition, Low Modulus is composited on the berry-bat that suddenly rises from a supple tip with a fast taper. The X45 full shield tightens the whole body, and it goes without saying that a sharp cast is decided by the regular class crank, and a crawler bait of around 20 g can be swung with a margin, and it is also possible to quickly pull off the fish from around the cover.
The handle is a multi-middle length that is easy to throw, whether single or double. The more you use the grip part, the more the feelings of the battle will be engraved on it. The butt end prevents interference and selects a round shape that won’t lose.
Furthermore, the colored blank “Kawamura Brown”, which is unusual in the history of STEEZ, is adopted. Kawamura’s desire to challenge the next world of winding by increasing the brilliance while being aware of the traditional colors of fast moving machines can be seen there.
