St.
Croix Introduces New Avid X
Freshwater
Spinning Rod
Versatile new spinning model brings popular 70MXF 1-piece
performance to the feature-rich, made-in-the-USA Avid X lineup
Park Falls, WI (June 13, 2018) – The heart
of St. Croix’s Avid X Series is its stellar SCIII graphite blank
with IPC mandrel technology. Its soul banks on the advanced micro-guide
platform and efficiently comfortable handle design. Together they create
unrivaled performance and value in a USA-crafted rod.
The angler-favorite Avid X
family of freshwater spinning rods grows to ten models for 2018, with the
introduction of the new AXS70MXF. The seven-foot, medium power,
extra-fast action, one-piece model is rated for 6-12 lb. line, and is expected
to become a new all-around favorite among bass and walleye anglers.
Light and responsive, the
AXS70MXF’s extra fast action delivers extreme sensitivity and fast access to
the rod’s power on the hookset, making it an ideal choice for worm, jig, and
dropshot applications.
“This new Avid X freshwater
spinning model bridges a gap in the previous series lineup,” says St. Croix
Director of Marketing and avid angler, Jesse Simpkins. “The performance of this
medium power, extra-fast action architecture has proven to hit the sweet spot
for countless anglers in our other rod series, so delivering it as an option in
the feature-rich, made-in-the-USA Avid X lineup just makes sense. The result is
a versatile rod that excels in a variety of techniques and applications. Given
its combination of performance, value and features, it clearly has the
potential to become one of our best-selling models.”
