Daiwa’s newest pole is a great all-rounder
The Tournament-S is a modern nod to the original pole, released 25 years ago. Designed to deliver a lighter handling performance, it features the latest Professional 4mm Match kit.
Using technically-advanced Super MSG Nanoplus throughout, the pole weighs 25g less than the Air Z PRO. The handling and responsiveness is a total dream and, although rated to a No10 elastic, it is equally at home with the 4.7mm Commercial kits, covering up to No16 (Black Hydro).
At 16m you an choose ‘pole only’ or the More Match and All-Round packages. For the 13m Daiwa provides three top-5 kits, also featuring the new Professional 4mm Top Kit. The 16m is supplied with a PHEX911-AU and the 13m with a PHEX89-AU. All PHEXs are now upgraded, super-light, and feature EVA nose cones.
AIR Z PRO 16M
The AIR family represents the absolute highest level of Daiwa’s technology and design capability.
Without question, the AIR Z pole surpasses its very own supreme standards by bringing additional improvements with the PRO edition.
The latest kit packages, featuring the redesigned Professional kits, are key in this upgrade. The pole is supplied with the clever 2.4m Professional 4mm Match Kit (PTK4.0- AU), which itself is near equal length two-piece, and features a pre-bore reinforcement for side pullers plus a PTFE bush and No3 nose cone.
The improvements don’t stop there. The slide easy effect of ITS taping now starts at the No4 and continues down to the No8. Also included is the Super Light PHEX911 extension which, as well as taking the pole to the full 16m, also gives you fishing length versatility by fitt
