DEPS SideWinder Great Performer HGC-70XS/GP BushViper

Unwavering performance.

1999.

The SideWinder appeared in an era when light rigs were the mainstream when lighter and more sensitive rods were pursued.
While ultra-high elasticity rods are appearing one after another, as if going against the times, the torqueful long rod with super-class power posed the question, "What on earth are you fishing with this rod?" was taken. But our answer was clear.

"It's a rod for catching big bass," he said.

In the heyday of tournaments, big bass hunting was only a style of some core anglers, but the SideWinder series, which started with only three models, "Slap Shot", "Super Border", and "Outcross", is such a core angler. It was a rod that was born only for big bass hunters.

That specialized spec was the only one that could handle strong styles such as slow rolling heavy spinnerbait, rubber jig swimming, and big bait, which are now standard.

For over a dozen years since then, although there have been minor cosmetic changes, the basic performance has not changed at all, and that is why the rod has been loved.

In 2011, without modifying the long-loved blank, the New SideWinder was brushed up with sharpness and high rigidity that you can tell just by holding it in your hand. firmly inherited.

The EX. Heavy Slow Taper, which exhibits increasing power as it bends, is mainly used for shallow cover flipping and frog games, and is also compatible with swim jigs and spinner baits up to a depth of 1 meter. It shows an outstanding finish that can be used at a high level from close combat attacking cover to moving bait.
The spiral setting that combines the #2 to #6 guides with "T-KWSG" not only prevents troubles on braided lines, but also eliminates power loss due to twisting, allowing the strong torque inherent in the blank to be utilized. Pull it out fully.
The unique slow taper, which boasts delicate and light operability including twitch, opens a new frontier for power fishing.

■ Machine cut aluminum ring

A machine-cut aluminum ring placed at the junction of the carbon pipe inside the grip and the blank. It increases the rigidity of the joint part and demonstrates a strong fixing force when inserting the blank. A symbolic part of the Great Performer, with a red color that expresses “pedigree” and two lines that represent the second generation.

■ POM front grip

Hood grip using POM (polyoxymethylene) resin, known as Duracon resin or engineering plastic, which has excellent wear resistance, high strength, fatigue resistance, rigidity, and processing accuracy. It contributes to ensuring strong reel mounting and sensitivity by hard touch.

■ Guide setting

In order to maximize the performance of the blank, the guide setting that makes the line follow the bent curve more tightly contributes to sharpness and weight reduction that you can not think of the same blank.
With the adoption of the "T-LNSG" guide, which is lighter than the previous "T-NSG" made by fuji, the number of guides, guide positions, and guide diameters have been determined more precisely. And it realizes a highly sensitive feeling.

■ Haika cork grip end

The grip end, which uses high-strength Haika cork, reduces slippage and slippage, and also has a balancer effect due to its moderate weight.

The more you use it, the more it will give off a dull black luster.

■ Shaped EVA grip

The EVA grip has a shape that is easy to grip and does not cause fatigue even when used for a long time.

■ Dedicated setting / foregrip

The front grip of the Boa Constrictor HGC-77XS/GP and Constrictor HGC-64XS/GP is equipped with an EVA support, and a dedicated setting that reduces the burden on the fingertips during hard jerk and continuous twitch action frequently used in moving lures. applied.
