SPIRAL X
HI-POWER X

Unconventional specs that overturn common sense in the middle class. The world's standard offshore rod.

The next generation of standard rods for anglers who challenge a variety of offshore games. The lineup, created through repeated testing against big fish not only in Japan but also around the world, is truly a global standard. The blanks are equipped with SPIRAL X, a basic structure that combines lightness and strength, and HI-POWER X, a reinforced structure that increases torsional rigidity and suppresses blurring and power loss, dramatically improving performance. The new "HI-POWER X" structure dramatically improves performance. It demonstrates high performance that shatters the concept of middle-class lures in all situations.
Type Slow J, specialized for slow jigging, is designed with power levels from 1 to 5 within a unified length of 6 feet 8 inches. It can be used from a depth of 60m to mid-depth water or deeper. The blanks are designed with SPIRAL X and HI-POWER X as in the other series, and are two-piece with grip joints. The lure can be used in a wide variety of maneuvers, such as slow or fast lures and combination jerks, based on the jig's fall action.

FEATURE Technology Details

SPIRALX_RD
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-POWERX_RD
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.
