These look great, really impressive and I like the philosophy of making a “junior” version of the range topper to deliver almost all the performance. My problem is Danny is an excellent angler and would out perform me with a broom handle. What you need to show the advantages of these rods is to make a film of some chump like me struggling to get over 80yrds and no accuracy with their own kit, then give them the Kaizens and some coaching, and have them casting 130yrds with “pinpoint accuracy” later that same afternoon - that’d sell you some rods!
Fishing now the Kaizen Green in 10ft 4lbs a while on the wild and huge reservoirs in France and I've to say for that price I've never a better rod. Well done @KordaTV @KordaGermanyKarpfenangelnTV
They should do 3-3.5 tc. 4 is way too much unless cat fishing maybe or shark or even whale fishing. And why do anglers always have to cast stupid distances when you van catch fish about 10ft out or in the near edge
Congratulations Mr. Fairbrass. & team. Your devotion to carp fishing & development of anglers, affordable tackle is far reaching in excellence. All the best 🙏🎣
Pre ordered these last month. Seen they have been sent out today. Cannot wait to go play with them. Will get to use them at Gigantica in June this year too- can’t wait! Also that new Kaizen net coming out looks decent too!
💚💚💚Would love a set of these bad boys don't they just look mint even the net looks mint💚💚💯💯💯💯might have to put my current rods threw some terror to get a new set 😂😂😮absolutely well done Danny now the rod n rig engineer n master I would be very proud of these they are beautiful mate and I bet they fish great well done 💯💯👌💚
Got the spod rod, whack it out at 168 yards! Smashing the clip with a 4oz lead! Felt like the rod could give more! Such a amazing rod for the price! ❤️❤️
Kaizen need a amphibious barrow in the range, a barrow to carry all your gear but can deploy quickly as a boat. With a outboard, also you can clip a bivvy to the top of it, so you free to explore and kept dry.
Awesome I just bought myself a pair of 10fts for my regular venue, I cannot wait to try them out, I just cannot decide what new reels to buy with them any thoughts please for a small to medium size lakes.
Cheers us workers can now afford the greens, the benefit cheats and sick note peeps can afford the platinum rods and fish every other day. Gotta love the U.K.
i'm going to wait for the independent review videos to come out as only ones i seen so far are from korda employees so far. not hating on Korda I'm sure they are fine rods for the price point and I Use Korda stuff all the time and it never let me down.
Well done Korda and Danny Fairbrass it's a great effort designing top end rods to cater for those that can't afford the platinums ...Korda for me are far and away the leading tackle company...I am biased as I love everything Korda I am desperate to get my hands on the greens ..well done again D.F and those involved like Terry Edmunds boom ...its the green take over..
Superb rods, no doubt, for the money. But no line clip? I hate the clip on ones personally and consider a line clip as essential. Sadly I'll have to give these a miss.
I have now had a waggle with these in a tackle shop. Stunning to look at. Very sexy indeed. Balance feels great too. Great job team korda 💚. Maybe the mk2's will have a line clip just for me...seriously though in 30 years of Carp fishing I've not seen better for the money. Gotta hand it to ya Danny 👏 Bravo
Hope you will add the aluminium spreader block to the shelves at some point can’t wait to get my hands on 3x 12ft 3.5lb and the net hopefully be able to add the spreader block to it 🙏
@gwl78 China are the 2nd best producers of carbon fibre in the world behind Japan, I don't think it really matters, if your worried about quality I wouldn't trust this country or any other 😂 for top dollar. I've seen these rods in the flesh and they look sexy, If I didn't have decent rods already I'd give them a go.
@wayneappleby9366 what the slave labour beats all don't you mean the 3 million Muslims they have locked in concentration camps once China move on Taiwan the fishing industry is dead here it will have to be made somewhere else
Ive always wondered how much doe noel got for selling off those worm like eye brows...they kinda disappeared around 2002..... funny anough around the same time he got wealthy..... ermm....suspicious
This just proves the platinum are way to expensive. With the slightest of changes you can produce a rod which is three times more cheap than the platinum. Sounds like the platinums are a absolute scam!
He's been carp fishing years if he don't know how to make a wicked rod now I'd be very surprised it's not something that can be done lightly cos you know yourself you want the best when it comes to rods I do.
Having been out on a casting lesson with Terry, we got to all try the rods out pre release. These rods were amazing. We had Harrison treb lites built with torzite guides, free spirit 13ft hi s ive’s, free spirit hi s er, Korda platinums We all cast our furthest casts of the day with the green 13ft 4lb. As we are going jazarki one of us cancelled buying a set of Hi s ‘Ives’ as he could justify the money difference when the green was casting just as far There was some line and reel differences , some had basia’s, some had technium’s old and new versions. So not a complete equal test BUT….we couldn’t believe these rods were competing. No sponsorships or alliances with this comment.
Thanks for the interesting insight. We hope you enjoyed your time with Terry and glad you got to try the Kaizens rods first hand 👍 We appreciate you taking the time to write this comment too. Have a great weekend, tight lines 💚
Not sure what the price is yet 🤔 as I have not looked 🤔 but, if Danny has anything to do with it i,know that the rods are going to be absolutely superb, over the years he has put so so much into everything he does. I will be having a look at them, As still have my Daiwa infinity X's 21/4 tc, 12' also a pair of Simpsons of Turnford, 13' slim Jim long ranger's 3Lb TC. Thought, trade in sell 🤔 current 4, for two of these, any thoughts anyone at Korda or Danny or has anyone else changed from there current rods to these ??? Any thoughts advice would be welcome and appreciated. Cheers Les.
Danny should address Darryl continuously breaking rules in France on public lakes in order to bolster his album, very disappointing Korda permits this. Many people have been banned by Darryl on social media for pointing out his blatant bending/breaking of the rules. I will never support anything Darryl has to do with Korda. 20years loyal customer, rod order cancelled. been fun guys.
If these are a lesser carbon than the platinum I wouldn’t fancy them much at all…. I have a video of a platinum which snapped inbetween the whippings of the 50mm butt ring being only 2/3 weeks old. If I could post the video/pictures I would… I’ve never, ever seen a rod snap there in 25 years of carp fishing.
What a shame it doesn't have the alps reel seat otherwise I would have bought 2 kaizen green 12 ft 4 lbs. In this case I am going to buy Daiwa Basia 12ft 4.25 lbs.
Picked up my set of kaizon greens yesterday and I can't wait to use them at linear in a few weeks, any ideas when the landing net will be released please?
I actually got myself a kaizen green spod rod and used it in France two weeks ago and I’m very impressed and this Is someone coming from a free spirit spomb rod user
I can't wait monday to get my 13ft 4lb Kaizen greens that I order in fryday. I'm so happy. Greetings from Croatia Mr. Fairbrass and Korda team 😊
Just had mine delivered. If they perform as good as they look then I’m on a winner. They are one sexy looking rod. Well done Korda 👍
Danny excellent idea, good to have a more affordable kaizen set of rods. This opens up the hobby all
Yes it does! Thanks for the positive feedback 💚
@@KordaTV any comments on the blank you use pls? Dani said it's a new blank from Japan, the Longbow blank has been around for 15 years?
they are old black widow blanks, just tarted up 😂
@@paulegan3427absolutely, using up old overstock for all the fans that want the name and will pay 10x more
@KordaTV which spod rod would you pair with the 12ft 6 4lbers?
The rod game just changed. Forever! 🥷 💚
These look great, really impressive and I like the philosophy of making a “junior” version of the range topper to deliver almost all the performance.

How much were they
@@thetruth_uk2009 120,- Eur mate - really a good price for these rods
10ft 4lb test must be like playing a fish on a broom handle
Would the 4lb be too much for small ponds in heavy weed
They should do 3-3.5 tc. 4 is way too much unless cat fishing maybe or shark or even whale fishing. And why do anglers always have to cast stupid distances when you van catch fish about 10ft out or in the near edge
these rods look absolutely amazing, im so excited to get my hands on a few of these
Congratulations Mr. Fairbrass. & team. Your devotion to carp fishing & development of anglers, affordable tackle is far reaching in excellence. All the best 🙏🎣
Thank you for the kind words, have a great weekend 👍
nice one with the affortable net !
Had 3 x 10ft 3.5lbs on preorder. Just about to pick them up! Looking forward to smashing some PBs on them.
Pre ordered these last month. Seen they have been sent out today. Cannot wait to go play with them. Will get to use them at Gigantica in June this year too- can’t wait! Also that new Kaizen net coming out looks decent too!
Got my 3 through the door today, hopefully they get christened this weekend 🤞
These look great ! Question for Korda will you move into the extendable rod market ? You already do a rod bag for them so would be a logical step !
Defo going to bran some of these beasts never thought I’d have rods like it thanks Dan ya and the team great stuff kaizen green
nice one Dan, they look awesome.

Now went to see them some rod getting them in few weeks want to know when the matching net is out

Sounds epic!
Vey nice, I shall have a look at the 10ft ones for my park lake
I’ve been using my Greens for the last month. Very impressed. Tbh bar the weight there’s not that much difference to my Century Stealths! 😮
Awesome I just bought myself a pair of 10fts for my regular venue, I cannot wait to try them out, I just cannot decide what new reels to buy with them any thoughts please for a small to medium size lakes.
Can’t wait to get these
dont waste ya money gimmick

Cheers us workers can now afford the greens, the benefit cheats and sick note peeps can afford the platinum rods and fish every other day. Gotta love the U.K.
Christ... imagine being on a lake with somebody who can't afford the platinums. Is there such a place where poor anglers go?
@El-Tel63-Terry. Norton Disney :)
Thanks rishi for mine!!!
I love my longbow df 12ft 3.5lb had them for years, but im a tart and i love that green 💚 how do these rods compare to the longbow df?
Thinking of changing my 10ft 3.5 scopes for theses 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
You won’t be disappointed
i'm going to wait for the independent review videos to come out as only ones i seen so far are from korda employees so far. not hating on Korda I'm sure they are fine rods for the price point and I Use Korda stuff all the time and it never let me down.
Why reel would you recommend to go with a 12ft 3.5 for general fishing?
I love you Dan ❤
I'm going to get 3 10fts look amazing these rods
Can you maybe tell us a bit more about the expected price of the net
Hi hello Danny with your new carp Kaisen rods what carp reels? Do you recommend? Me to use or buy thank you god bless you

What about Ali,s venture 😅twig?
When is the net coming out?
Will they be available in the near future in Belgium? :)
They are available now at your local Korda stockist across Europe 💚 check out your local tackle shop 👌
@Kordatv will there be a 12ft 6 rod sleeve coming out?
Is there any planned dates for the net to be released.
Korda head torch possibly? 👀
Korda now making people believe that they need 4lb TC rods 😂
That is what you make of it,that is what is in your mind.
Is the Green Hornet, masked up, Chav in the ad out robbing tackle?
I mean while the punters are snoozing in their bivvies.
So the rings ain’t good for braid ? Apart from the European 10ft version ??
Rods looks brilliant I’ll definitely have them on my shopping list quick question did I spot mozza on that video ?
What green line is this please
10ft with cork availible?
Not at this time, thank you
How mutch these gunna be ?
12ft6 spod?
Superb rods, no doubt, for the money. But no line clip? I hate the clip on ones personally and consider a line clip as essential. Sadly I'll have to give these a miss.
I have now had a waggle with these in a tackle shop. Stunning to look at. Very sexy indeed. Balance feels great too. Great job team korda 💚. Maybe the mk2's will have a line clip just for me...seriously though in 30 years of Carp fishing I've not seen better for the money. Gotta hand it to ya Danny 👏 Bravo
Hahaha. Seen it all now!! 4lb test curve for mud pigs. 😂
Big up honey g
Remind me what Kaizen means again?
Hope you will add the aluminium spreader block to the shelves at some point can’t wait to get my hands on 3x 12ft 3.5lb and the net hopefully be able to add the spreader block to it 🙏
Which Daiwa blank are they?
The platinums use the longbow blank so these will be the crosscast or emblem I reckon
@@gavinhawley7728 ludicrous really, the longbow was never a premium range from Daiwa, I would expect Korda to use at least Infinity or Basia blank.
@@beasbadges8827 that would mean the platinums would cost £1200 a rod when fairbrass takes his cut lol
The eyes on the 12ft rods will be no good for braid fishing should have the option on rings like Europe
As good as I'm sure they are, Korda must have spent more on advertising for these than income of the rods purchased?
Are they better than the original longbow DFs...
These are just Chinese copies
They are not going to be daft and put a true statement out, either way you look at it, not a good company thing to do.....
@@aarondavies8486stupid comment
I would say they are a longbow DF
@@paulkirkbride2156 ikon you a probably right
The cheep one are khazi
Add hope they were no dear than £50 each
How expensive are they
The 10ft start at £99 each. Check out your local tackle shop on take a look online for the full RRP’s 👍
@@KordaTV okay thanks I’ll be sure to check them out
Made in ?
If I was to guess I would say made in Scotland by Daiwa.
Daiwa factory in Vietnam not the uk
Looks like they are made in the same place as the Sonik HeroX range
How much are they . Enyone
£100-£140
@@matsmith5279 not bad than cheers
Champagne taste with a coca cola price range 😂😂😂🎉
I just get dont buy the platinum ones and get the green ones
Take it the green ones aint made in the uk as they dont say nothing about where they made so more chinese tat
We can assure you they aren't tat! 😉

can i get some too try free
Should name these Rods “korda hookpulla” trash rods.
Based on an inherent dislike of Korda? Or on having tested them?
This just proves the platinum are way to expensive. With the slightest of changes you can produce a rod which is three times more cheap than the platinum. Sounds like the platinums are a absolute scam!
More money making scam
Will you guys be doing a telescopic version?
any plans for different builds? have used full corks for the last 30 years & couldn't imagine using anything else.
I've got £400+ rods and these have got me thinking of a change 🤔
4lb lol
He's been carp fishing years if he don't know how to make a wicked rod now I'd be very surprised it's not something that can be done lightly cos you know yourself you want the best when it comes to rods I do.
