![]() ![]() It is an Australian designed product that is totally unique and for the angling market it is aimed at, I believe it will assist. If that happens and Australian anglers get a reduced price with a copy, good luck to them. That may come with time and quantity but the decision was made to use Victorian processes, materials and labour, and establish patents in a number of countries, including Australia, however, if a copy is made offshore at 50% less labour, materials used etc etc, then so be it. The unit is manufactured, packaged and distributed from Victoria and like all new businesses, price will always be an issue for the owners to wrestle with, as they try to reduce the cost of manufacture. ![]() As stated in an earlier post there are restrictions on its use but they do not inhibit 80% of surf anglers and it is better to let people know upfront what they are than be disappointed because they thought it would work with a revolving drum reel, for example. ![]() arthritis, wheel chair bound anglers etc, etc. This new model feeder-rods with the test to 80 g will be a great solution. It is aimed at the average angler, his wife/partner and children, or the angler who has a problem loading the rod and releasing the line because of physical challenges e.g. 3, Flagman Cast Master Feeder 4.2 m 110g Heavy, The best form for long casts. However, when we launched this product we did not have those anglers in mind. The point of the unit and the casting action used is that you can follow through with your rod fully because the Xcelerate will release your weight at 40 degrees, irrespective of where you stop your rod tip or when counterflex begins. Ted Whittam, Australian and World Casting Champion and record holder says it all on the website. I agree that if every angler got some coaching, say from the ASF's Jeremy Schrader or other excellent coaches and casters in Australia, and then trained enough to perfect those techniques, they would never have an issue putting their bait where the fish are. I am a multiple Australian and International Casting Champion and I know very well the techniques referred to in posts above, including Jeremy’s video, but most anglers do not use those techniques. Castmaster Xcelerate is designed for 80% of anglers who use a standard surf outfit and cast with an over the shoulder technique. My name is John Waters and I am Chairman of Castmaster Australia Pty Ltd. G'Day Gents, I thought I would offer some background to Castmaster Australia Pty Ltd's Xcelerate and its use. ![]()
