SHIMANO World Shaula BG 2838R-2

Versatile new chapter. The power does not betray.

Big game compatible specs with even more distance and power

World Shaula BG is a big game compatible rod for challenging monster fish all over the world regardless of seawater or freshwater. It is a special specification that pursues uncompromising long-distance casting performance and more power with a length of "9 feet or more" or a power of "6 or more" that is not found in the original model of World Shaula.
With the same size as the original model, 130 cm, it not only withstands tough use, but also has a super red paint that gives off a strong presence in the field, and an EVA straight grip that is slippery even when wet. It is a model specializing in big games of "flying" and "power" that meets the expectations of anglers who travel all over Japan and the world in search of big game.

2838R-2 :

The strongest overwrite. Introducing 8 powers for GT and tuna that exceed the conventional 6 powers.

The strongest power spec 2838R-2 that surpasses the World Shaula BG2836RS-2, which was developed with the concept of hanging, bending, and catching with the center cut specification. Regular taper action to further enhance the flight distance and operability required for big games. It is possible to draw out the action of the top plug with good response and confront the GT / tuna that was hung with a powerful fight unique to 8 power. The 2-piece design makes it comfortable to carry to your expedition destination.

Spiral X Core :

Next-generation basic structure that has evolved through the adoption of high-strength materials.

Shimano original design and manufacturing method thoroughly pursues even higher strength in all directions such as bending, twisting, and crushing. Shimano's original basic structure Spiral X, which enhances rod performance from the ground up, uses carbon tape using high-strength resin realized by Nano Alloy® technology. Achieves even higher strength with selected materials. Achieves twist strength 1.4 times and crush strength 2.5 times compared to general structures (compared to our company). Furthermore, compared to Spiral X, we have achieved a 10% increase in twist strength and a 15% increase in crush strength (compared to our company).

High power X :

Reinforced structure that further suppresses twisting that occurs during casting and fighting. The feature is that the carbon tape is tightened in an X shape from the outermost layer of Spiral X or the carbon sheet vertical and horizontal crossing structure. As a result, the bending of the rod keeps the direction intended by the angler, and the original performance of the blanks is fully exhibited.
