Daiwa Air Z System Whip 10m

Flagship System Whip: Unrivalled Reach, Power, and Speed for Match Anglers

The Daiwa Air Z System Whip 10m represents the pinnacle of long whip technology, perfectly designed for the highly demanding work required at this extreme length. Catering to the modern trend of fishing with longer whips “to hand,” this model offers a significant advantage on large commercial fisheries, canals, and rivers, where extra reach is vital for accessing feeding zones or swinging in fish quickly. Despite its length, the use of advanced carbon ensures the whip remains remarkably stiff, responsive, and easy to handle for extended periods.

Key Features and Uses

• Maximum Reach and Control: At a full $10\text{m}$, this whip is Daiwa’s longest system whip, engineered with a specific diameter and taper to maintain exceptional rigidity and balance. This allows the angler to comfortably and quickly work the full length of the rod for powerful, longer ‘to hand’ applications.
• Super MSG® (Multi Strand Graphite) Construction: The blank is built using Super MSG® (Multi Strand Graphite), a high-grade carbon fibre that ensures the whip is incredibly light for its length while providing the necessary wall strength and stiffness to execute rapid striking and netting of fish.
• Integrated Taping System (ITS) & Diamond Satin Finish: The sections feature ITS (Integrated Taping System) to enhance joint strength and prevent sections from locking up. Coupled with a Diamond Satin slide-easy paint finish, the whip ships effortlessly in and out, which is paramount for competitive match fishing speed.
• Comprehensive Dual Tip System: The whip is supplied with two versatile telescopic top kit options to cover all fishing eventualities:
  1. Telescopic Flick Tip Top Three Kit: Pre-fitted with a rotating lily yarn connector, ideal for traditional whip fishing with light rigs and fixed line setups for silverfish.
  2. Telescopic Hollow Top Three Kit: Designed to be elasticated (up to a recommended $10$ rating) using power gum, transforming the whip into a strong system for netting larger carp, F1s, and silverfish quickly without overstressing the blank.
• Reinforced Handling Zones: Handling areas from the No. $4$ section onwards are strategically reinforced. This provides anglers with a positive, non-slip grip when handling the whip at long range and gives confidence when swinging fish to hand or presenting heavy rigs.
• Handle Extensions for Versatility: For maximum versatility and handling comfort, the whip is supplied with a set of three short reinforced ‘handle’ extensions for the No. $5$, $6$, and $7$ sections, allowing for precise length adjustment and added protection.
