25 Foojin’Z 6th Generation

In the Age of Discovery for sea bass rods, an unknown golden age still lies ahead.

The Age of Discovery of the past was also an era of continuous discovery. Vasco da Gama's pioneering of the sea route to India, Columbus's arrival on the American continent... and the revolution in navigation technology led to the next era.

The "Age of Discovery" that has visited the world of sea bass rods has also been a continuous series of discoveries.

Having set sail ahead of others, we want to declare this: There is still more to come in this world.

APIA's new technology, "X-FORCE100," is installed in the latest Foojin'Z 6th Generation. With conventional methods to increase strength, carbon fibers were layered in multiple directions using separate prepregs. The "X-FORCE100," however, molds carbon fibers crossed at 45° for high torsional strength using a single prepreg. It also succeeds in eliminating the "Glass scrim" that was used as a backing for the carbon prepreg for reinforcement. This results in the birth of a sea bass rod made of 100% pure carbon.

Equipped with the cutting-edge material TORAYCA® "M46X," the Foojin'Z 6th Generation is composed solely of TORAYCA® 3rd Generation carbon and achieves outstanding "casting distance," "accuracy," and "power."
