The replacement rod for the Z Axis called the "ONE" has already started with a bang. It won the "best new rod" at the EFTTEX show (read more) and is promised to be a winner here in the States. With Jerry Siem behind the design and development, I am sure it will impress even the most discerning angler. With the new Konnetic Technology that combines innovative materials with a proprietary manufacturing process to make a better, overall rod. Read more about this technology below.

Konnetic Technology
Says Sage: "Konnetic Technology combines proprietary aerospace-grade materials with innovative manufacturing methods and processes. The impossibly lighter rods built utilising this technology provide ultimate line control and accuracy due to enhanced tip-to-hand sensitivity and feedback, yet still retain Sage's renowned power and durability.
"Konnetic Technology incorporates an optimised ratio of Sage's proprietary resin to carbon fibre with our Advanced Modulus Positioning System (AMPS), a process that places the carbon materials to exacting tolerances for the greatest blank strength and efficient energy transfer throughout the shaft. "Using our High Compression Molding (HCM) process, the blank's carbon fibres are compacted for optimum density and precise alignment, simultaneously fusing the 50% lighter all-carbon fibre inner core."
