Shimano leverages its ARMABOOST technology to increase a lure's casting distance by folding the lure into a compact shape, reducing air resistance and minimizing the chances of the lure spinning during flight. As the angler casts the lure, ARMABOOST technology enables the lure to disconnect from an internal magnet that allows the body to fold into its compact shape. Once the lure hits the water, the body reengages with the magnet to create a smooth and natural swimming action — a characteristic of premium jointed swimbaits.
