@wolter de wit yeah I thought they were as its a far better carbon in the insurgent I got mine for 76 quid each the other week I have had scopes years back I had some custom ones built from 1k carbon and non of them come close to the insurgent cast like a dream
@@aarondavies8486 The descriptions are literally word for word identical on the website though? High Modulus Toray carbon blank Quality slim AAA cork handle Lite-ply 1K armoured carbon weave throughout Multi-directional tip section carbon lay-up Super-light M-SERIES DL black guides with anit-frap tip 50mm guide pattern on 3.25lb models and above (40mm below) Black 18mm DPS reel seat Black anodised butt cap laser etched with ‘S’ logo Copy and pasted, the Insurgent and Xtractor pro text is identical. Is there something different in the blanks that's not in the description?
I once had the Sonik Insurgent rods in Cork and 9ft 3.25 lb and never again...everything was great, up to 90m casting, progressive action, looked great but the Minima rings were a big disaster Never used braided lines, only monofilament, but still had a groove on it😢
How close are the new xtractor pro rod to the insurgent I have just got some insurgent and feel am missing out on something even better in the pros
They never answer this question....but i can tell you, you are missing nothing the insurgents are better

90m cast from a 9ft rod? and you are complaining? most 9ft rods don`t cast that far... I would say that`s pretty good
@@zsolthogye3415 yes, I was satisfied, after all I am writing that the rod was excellent, but unfortunately the Minima rings ruined everything
Will these fit in the small stek rod bag?
Think 🤔 the rods are better then sonik insurgent 🤔
They are the same blank just changed the name and look
