Arguably already classic
rods this range originally started with the E.S. and X.S.
Unlike many companies Free Spirit take great pains to
create the best possible rods before launching them so
they don't need to keep changing models unless something
significantly better in material is developed.
These rods have such a following and reputation that Free
Spirit could not contemplate changing this series.
The blanks are slim and light with semi-progressive
curves that suit anglers liking a rod with more feel for
fish playing. The exceptions are the X.S.ive and
X.S.R. that have been designed with distance in mind,
although these are also more parabolic than the Hi-'S'
range.
All the 'S' range are built on 36t Low Resin Carbon
blanks with an attractive 3k weave and 'Perdurable'
finish drastically reducing the softening process of the
blank. Free Spirit have added significantly to the range
to cater for all requirements from small waters to
extreme range.
