Browning Xitan Power Z9 18m Pro Package
The Xitan Z9 continues as our flagship for 2011. The Z9 was a best seller amongst top-end poles last year due to it un-matched performance and value. The pole has now achieved a formidable, and still growing, reputation that has seen anglers swith "brand" allegiance to Browning for the absolute best in pole design.
The Z9 is purpose designed for modern styles of fishing and was extensively tested and fine-tuned before release. The pole is very stiff, strong and light and is the perfect choice for the angler who takes their sport seriously. Extreme rigidity and absence of "bounce" makes the pole superb for fishing shallow or with very short lines. Customers have reported using the Z9 under pressure well beyond its design limits without a problem - a testimony to the quality of design and manufacture of Browning Poles.
The Z9's performance has been achieved by using the very highest quality carbon cloth available to us. By incorporating our Nano-carbon technology we have been able to make the Z9 both very strong and very durable without compromising weight. The male and female joint areas have a visible woven overwrap to minimise wear and resist edge damage and add further strength.
The butt sections are strengthened to prevent elbow and spray bar damage and are finsished with a special paint finish to improve shipping in damp conditions. This complements the microfine sanded Diamond Surface finish on all unpainted sections. To maintain the pole's superb balance the Z9 is supplied with our special multi-purpose, light but very strong, Power Match Kits. The Z9 will easily take 14 solid or 12/20 hollow elastics. The pole packs int othe 14.5m section and is supplied complete with two quality 0.8m mini-extensions that give a wide variety of fishing lengths.
In line with Browning's "Upgrade Pack" concept, the Z9 is available in base 16.4m package, or a totally fishable and very comprehensive 18 metre package - the longest standard pole available.
