Devotion to Real Fishing

★ The obstacles before us serve as signposts on the path to victory.

★ The god of victory resides within oneself, and in the details.

★ In 2021, a new chapter of STEEZ begins, with layers of depth added.

★ Now, let us carve a new page with our own hands.

The extreme reduction of resin volume is the true 'muscle' of the blank.

When compared to the standard at 100%, SVF COMPILE-X can achieve a maximum sensitivity of 171.4%.

Pursuing ergonomics for a more natural grip holds the key to victory.

The new AIR BEAM SEAT enhances attacking power, ensuring that 21STEEZ never loosens its grip on the angler and the rod, the direct contact points. By offsetting the penetrating blank within the seat, it ensures stability by lowering the center of gravity. The seat is designed with reduced steps between the trigger and the rear, and the hood is angled to fit any grip style comfortably. The trigger itself is designed to be thin and short, allowing the index finger to support during casting and smoothly transition to 2 or 3 fingers for retrieval without interference from the middle or ring fingers.

Shore Competition　SC HEAVY VERSATILE　MULTI-TAPER

In order to triumph in today's increasingly challenging fishing fields while maintaining the advantages of its predecessor, the Shore Competition (SC) introduces the 24 King Viper, a heavy versatile model.

While the previous 18 King Viper accommodated big baits up to a maximum weight of 3.5 ounces, the 24 King Viper adjusts its compatibility to suit the demands of tough modern fields. It maintains the same lure types but lowers the weight compatibility from its predecessor, now capping at 3 ounces. The aim is to enhance the overall fishing performance, focusing on commonly used lures like 3/8 ounce jigs & worms and 2 ounce class big baits. Notably, it also improves its responsiveness to heavy spinnerbaits and fast-moving lures like magnum crankbaits.

The 18 King Viper was renowned for its "rod that bends with a stiff, uniform taper," featuring a strong tip and a slow taper that bends parabolically to the butt. However, the 24 King Viper demands a more delicate handling of these rigs, necessitating a sensitive tip while retaining the slow taper for casting stability.

The tip adopts the regular taper seen in the 22 Fire Wolf, known for its delicate handling and sensitivity, while the butt retains the slow taper of the 18 King Viper to maintain casting accuracy across various weights. These conflicting tapers are consolidated into a single rod through a multi-taper design.

By combining castability with the characteristic resilience of a full bend, while also enhancing sensitivity, maneuverability, and immediate hooking response, the 24 King Viper transforms into a heavy versatile rod ready to conquer today's fishing challenges.
