Daiwa’s new Tournament Ballistic surf rods offered in both ready-to-hit the surf versions and to-be-finished blank versions. The three-piece, 13-foot Tournament Ballistic surf spinning rods feature Daiwa’s SVF (Super High Volume Fiber) Nanoplus construction, providing anglers with an overall thinner, lightweight and exceptionally balanced blank. Both finished rods and blank versions are offered with Daiwa’s unique V-Joint Technology where the ferrules bend to avoid any rod blank flatness and aids in longer casting abilities.
Beyond the Tournament Ballistic rod blank technology, the finished rods uses Fuji LC guides, a Daiwa custom reel seat, and fore and rear shrink grips. Both versions can be balanced to the surf reel used with a weight butt cap section where weights can be added and removed. Both Tournament Ballistic rod versions are offered in three actions, including a heavy action for casting lures from 2- to 10-ounces, an extra heavy for 4- to 12-ounce lure weights, and an XX-heavy version – dubbed the ‘Outer Banks’ special – for lure weights from 6- to 15-ounces.
