St. Croix’s innovative new Legend X fly rods
Fishing Tackle Reviews, Fly Fishing Tackle Reviews theangler PM
The Legend X blanks are manufactured using St. Croix’s proprietary Integrated Poly Curve® (IPC®) tooling to produce continuous-curve tapers, and are strengthened with St. Croix’s new Fortified Resin System (FRS) which prevents micro-buckling by keeping carbon fibers in proper alignment to produce blanks that are 33% stronger than those built with standard resins and curing methods.
Finally, all key stress points are further strengthened using Advanced Reinforcing Technology™ (ART™). This exotic carbon fiber material adds a magnitude (10X) of strength with virtually no increase in blank diameter or weight. ART is also a critical part of the Legend X slim-profile ferrule design.
With a retail price range of $480-$490, the new Legend X fly rods are designed and handcrafted in Park Falls, Wisconsin and are protected by a 15-year transferable warranty backed by St. Croix Superstar Service.
