The masterpiece of finesse shad, SHADING-X, which has overcome many tough tournament scenes, has been further updated. The "SHADING-X R" series has been fine-tuned with the latest engineering to help you win in even tougher situations. The main weight of the "TRIANGLE COUNTER BALANCING" system (PAT.) installed inside has been shifted to the center of gravity. The long castability has been improved to enable long-distance flight with a bait finesse rod even in strong winds. In addition, the wide collapse and intense vibration of the ultra-thin body have been strengthened. The tuning to the responsive "ultra-high pitch" action that accentuates the edge of the action brings a new dimension of feeding element.
