The "ST" is a new flagship model distinct in character from the "RT"

Before delving into the concept of the "ST," let's first reflect on the concept of the "RT." The "RT" is like a finely-tuned racing machine, offering the pinnacle of lightness and maneuverability. What was emphasized for this purpose was the combination of a tubular structure and the SVF Compile-X material. As a result, the high elasticity of the blank produced a sharp and crisp rod, reminiscent of racing, which has been widely praised by anglers since its release.

However, the traditional concept of the STOIST series was "sharpness within suppleness." This feeling could only be experienced with the combination of a supple taper design and the ultra-fine tip of the SMT or Mega Top. The ST "Stream Tune" inherits this concept and evolves it further for a seamless experience.

Awaken to a new sensation with the sharpened tip!

Introducing the Emeraldas Stoist ST (Stream Tune).

The concept of the STOIST ST (Stream Tune) focuses on enjoying manipulation with a delicate tip achieved by adopting features like SMT, Mega Top, and ultra-thin tubular design. Unlike the RT model that emphasizes high-quality sharpness by using SVF NanoPlus as the main material to create a supple blank, this expert model follows a different axis.

To thoroughly eliminate blank distortion, which directly affects the sharpness and casting performance, a reinforcement structure called X45 is employed to significantly increase rigidity. Slimming down the butt section, strengthening the joint section, and adopting the reverse overlapping joint V-Joint α aimed at achieving a clean carp.

The guides feature "AGS" (Carbon Fiber Air Guide System) (C-Ring and N-Ring), with a revised setup for further downsizing. The AGS is fixed with CWS (Carbon Wrapped Sheet), which enhances the fixing force and allows for shorter guide feet, achieving extreme compactness in the fixed parts and further enhancing the original blank performance.

Equipped with the ultra-lightweight Daiwa original Air Sensor seat. By shortening the foregrip, it enables fingertip blank touch.

In terms of design, contrasting with the "red" of the RT, the "ST" adopts the Emeraldas green, aiming to enhance individuality through external differentiation.

Emeraldas Stoist ST 88ML-SMT

The "88ML-SMT" is a semi-long model primarily designed for squid jigs ranging from size 3 to 3.5. With its length of 8.8 feet, it offers a unique taper design that provides a sense of suppleness, and equipped with SMT on the tip, allowing anglers to feel subtle changes in the current remarkably well. Additionally, it's indispensable for targeting shallow areas in shallow water.

SVF NanoPlus :

The blank design incorporates a supple action with a moderate amount of play, allowing for a responsive feel. Equipped with features like SMT (Solid Tip) and Mega Top, it achieves a balance of suppleness and sharpness, embodying the concept of "flexibility with sharpness within."

Blank Touch Short Grip :

Shortening the foregrip allows for direct contact with the blank, enabling sensitivity to subtle vibrations and bites.
