The SurfMachine series of rods is derived from the C-2D concept surf rods. This rod was designed with an overhand casting style in mind. The stiffest part of the rod is under the reel seat so it loads like a long bow to the top and bottom of the rod. Along with a easy casting moderate-action and a super fast single recovery material, the SurfMachine gives amazing distance to a beginner or pro with little effort while still maintaining a supple tip for working plugs or bite detection.
