The tip uses a sensitive Taftec carbon solid reinforced with ultra-fine carbon tape in an X pattern through Hi-Power X Solid, maintaining flexible bite acceptance while suppressing unwanted twist and power loss for improved sensitivity, accuracy and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpiral X Core strengthens the blank against bending, twisting and crushing, while Nano Pitch contributes to increased blank strength through highly precise forming-tape wrapping. The X Seat Front Trigger is a lightweight reel-seat design that offers multiple gripping styles for precise rig manipulation, secure holding, comfortable winding and stable casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCI4+ construction further reduces reel-seat weight while enhancing sensitivity and handling.
