black hole challenge blanks

Hi veryone,
I spent quite a lot of time on the net, reading and looking for a GT/Tuna stick bait rod.
Heavy models with very sentitive tips 2-2.5mm, progressive power 15-20lb drag, light weight (4-6oz). The targeted finished rod should turn arround 11 to 13oz.

I finally found little information on the Black Hole CHALLENGE blanks (3 models available) which partly replies to the above requirements.
Has anyone used those blanks prevoiusly?
Has someone more technical details on them?

Thanking you in advance for your assistance.

Regards

Y

There are more models of the Challenger Bank blanks than 3 depending on length and power. Best to call the distributor directly and ask them for more specifications and applications. I have not built any of these
but have pulled on most of the models at the Fred hall Show where they were on display. Very powerful blanks.
