After a two year wait, Fuji's answer to a DOUBLE-FOOT High-Frame, Small-Ring KW is finally just around the corner. If you're interested in a heavy rods that capitalize on all the virtues of smaller (not necessarily micro) guides, you might want to take a peak at a 1minute video we just posted to our You Tube Channel. It's a little bit of a Christmas present for the Northeast surf crowd (after soooo long) and I want all of them to know how much we appreciate their patience. WARNING: This is not what you expected, FUJI tells us it's better...we will see.

Jim, that is very nice! Have always wanted a high-frame double foot option.
From the video, does the ring material continue down and overlap the "leg" of the single foot? If so what purpose does it serve? -chad Re: Christmas Surprise from FUJI

Just saw the video bylines now, didn't see that the first time.

Chad, what you see on the back is the ring epoxy. Don't know for sure what purpose it serves but we suggested a cleaner look and they said it "needed" to be there. The flange is on the front of the ring, eliminating the possibility of knots at high casting speed crashing into the ring and popping it out. Seemed like a good idea for surf rods to me.
