Superb RS Graphene
Click image to enlarge
RS = Race Sense = speed, slenderness, sensitivity and performance!
A completely new series of four-piece ultra-light, slim, very fine and at the same time high-performance rods. These rods were designed, continuously tested and refined to perfection by Luboš Roza, one of the best competition fly fishermen in the world (a multiple World and European Championship winner) in close cooperation with František Hanák, an expert in targeting trophy fish.
This new range also includes a specialised and highly requested model for dry-fly fishing - the Superb RS Dry Fly 393.
Thanks to the use of the latest technologies, including the revolutionary Hexagon Graphene material and extra light and super-high-quality components, we reduced the weight of these rods by about 30% (up to 30g) compared to conventional rods. The exclusive reel seats feature an exotic wood insert and the hexagon cutouts imitate the structure of the Graphene blank material. All handles use highest-quality AAAA cork and the rods are fitted with US-made Recoil Titanflex flexible titanium single-leg guides.
The slight deviation from conventional lengths follows the global trend toward using slightly longer rods, while maintaining maximum performance in these rods.
Each rod is supplied in a luxurious pentagonal rod tube with separate compartments for each rod section.

Let us introduce our brand-new series of four piece, ultra-light, very fine yet powerful rods. They are the best competition fly rods available and designed using the newest technology and highest quality materials. These rods have been tested and fine-tuned to absolute perfection, in cooperation with the best competition fly–fishermen in the world, including members of Team HANÁK Competition and members of the Czech National Fly Fishing Team.
Each rod was designed and tested separately by the best Czech fly-fishermen in each discipline of fly-fishing. The blanks have been made using the latest carbon technology and materials in a special combination with top-class nano-filaments. Combining these blanks with extra light super quality components, we have succeeded in reducing the overall weight of these rods by up to 30g compared to conventional rods. The rods have super thin Fuji SIC stripper guides, and very durable and flexible Recoil Titanflex titanium snake guides. The perfect design of the rods is underlined by the exclusive black real seat which incorporates an exotic wood insert. The handle is made from the highest quality AAAA grade cork. The matte gold-olive finish of the blank prevents the disturbance of spooky fish by reducing rod flash. Each rod is shipped in a luxurious pentagonal rod tube with separate compartments for each rod section.
