More about the new Fuji Torzite

What is so special about this new guide by Fuji? After some research I have found this detailed PDF file from FUJI. Judging by the specs, we have a really great new material!
Is it going to replace the venerable SIC soon? We will see...

New Guides For Major Craft

I wanted to write about this before but never had the time. Major Craft has just introduced a new top and it is placed just at the top of the lineup. The Truzer is an expensive rod and looks quite cool. The real novelty is the new guide named Torzite.
Besides being a name reminiscent of intergalattic planets, we are dealing with an ultra light and low profile guide that makes look the SIC fat and old. I need to investigate and read more about it but this new guides looks promising. Questions like eat dissipation qualities and durability will be answered soon I guess.

Fuji K Guides

A couple of days ago I have written about the new Major Craft Crostage rod with the Fuji K guides.
The K series are the latest addition by Fuji to their wide range of guides. I consider Fuji to be one of the best guide makers out there. I always trusted them, from cheap Aluminum Oxide to SIC. Always reliable.
I have found a nice video that explains the advantages of the K guides. Basically the new design avoids any kind of tangling of braids over the guides during a cast. Details are available here (Japanese)
