Welp, that's the secret to all this isn't it. When Thrasher started this process we didn't need to know much, but we did need to assemble a team that did. Our team boasts a lifetime of rod blank design and building, aerospace and material consults, lifelong fisherman and extremely detail-oriented tradesmen. We played with unidirectional fibers, we wrapped them in different directions, angles and layers. We considered terms like Helix, triflex and quad-core, ( it's all good stuff). We also have the ability to kick some dust in our resin and call it nanotechnology—we passed. A few months into the process the correct questions were asked and it was decided to get outside the box. We decided to work with the material manufacturers, we knew they would be happy to manufacture custom prepreg materials consisting of any fibers and resins laid out to our specifications. ( We know, we know, typical high level rod manufacturer sales tactic bullshit). After a few months and many thousands we had our material and went to work. The results are in and now available to everyone. If you want to see what Thrasher's are made of, watch our rod testing videos. If you want to know what makes them the best rods on the market, sorry, that's some top-secret shit. We give you some info on our blank source page but the rest is locked up.
