Tom..... We offer the AirWave in both casting and spinning and in all chrome or a black frame with chrome insert. Jay..... the MicroWave casting guides are a great choice for a spiral wrap... because of the slightly higher frame design they are a bit easier to "get around the blank".

I cannot speak about MHX but I can tell you that the Bushido blanks are one of the toughest around. We use the highest quality Japenese pre-preg CF resulting in a great feeling and super responsive blank. I hear daily that the Bushido's are a "hidden gem".

Forum: rodboard

Some great responses there for you Kevin...... There is a safe margin of error when measuring out the MicroWave system. Some builders measure along the blank, some at an angle from the reel to the stripper, some measure to the middle of the large ring, some to the top. Any of the above will generally be with in a half of an inch of any other....so you are safe with any. Let us know how

Good morning Glenn.... here are the two blanks you are wondering about on the deflection board..... this is with 9oz of weight on each. You can see by looking at this that the 15-30 had more power but the 12-25 has a faster action.... please let me know if I can answer any questions about any AT products.

I fished the reefs over this last weekend and work with MANY of the guides and boats down here with their rods.... if he is like most people on the reefs he will be running conventional reels......
