Megabass OROCHI X10 is the first rod that features a blank made of natural organic fibers of plant origin (ORGANIC FIBER COMPOSITE BLANKS), a step forward towards a sustainable future for sport fishing.
In a historical period where sustainability is at the forefront, steps are being taken in the fishing world to research techniques and materials that reduce environmental impact. ITO Engineering and Megabass have begun developing and producing sustainable fishing equipment in line with the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals). The material created is a composite derived from natural plant-based fibers with a microfiber cellulose skeleton, which has potential uses in the world of racing cars and the aerospace industry, in addition to fishing. The Megabass OROCHI X10 series was created with these goals in mind. The name itself embodies the meaning of the series, with the "X" being the characteristic suffix of the Orochi family, "1" indicating it is the first, and "0" referring to the organic nature of the material. It is the first composite fishing rod made of organic fiber. One of the significant improvements provided by this incredible material is a 95% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to the production of a traditional carbon fiber Megabass rod, eliminating many chemical processes required for its manufacturing.
The use of organic fiber in the blank results in a very lightweight rod, increasing the dampening of oscillations by 30%, allowing for a blank with enhanced rigidity. During the casting phase, the rod quickly returns to its original position, significantly improving performance. These characteristics of responsiveness and quickness are made possible thanks to the incorporation of organic fiber in high-stress areas, starting from the central part of the blank and extending to the initial, final, and especially internal parts of the handle. For the tip section, a special construction method involving the use of carbon from the DESTROYER series has been employed, providing heightened sensitivity.
Attention was also given to fishing comfort, with custom grips designed by YUKI ITO to ensure prolonged use. For the more powerful casting models, the ITO TRIGER SYSTEM ERGONOMIC CASTING SEAT (D.PAT.) is used to provide a secure and comfortable grip, essential for powerful techniques regardless of the grip style. The remaining casting models feature the new ITO ENGINEERING AIRY-FIT ERGONOMIC SEAT (D.PAT.P), with a lightweight design and a split reel seat that exposes the blank, offering a balance between sensitivity and comfort. The spinning models feature the ITO ERGONOMIC-CONTACT SEAT, providing excellent palmability for comfort during continuous movements associated with spinning fishing, while enhancing sensitivity through direct contact with the exposed blank.
Additional features include a machine-cut aluminum reel locking screw for lightweight and robustness, Fuji stainless steel and SiC-S guides, and unique class-enhancing thread wraps using four different threads.
The series consists of 16 models (11 casting, 5 spinning) that cover a wide range of applications for both competitive and recreational anglers.
