Is anyone considering buying one of these? It's designed by Ken Whiting, fomerly of Airrus, now with e21. The rod won best of show at the last Icast and it's actually made from carrot fibers. Anyone have any opinions?

It's to heavy.

I like new technology in fishing rods and reels as much as anyone but the color orange on a rod blank is pushing it for me.

They've also got a Boyd Duckett signature series which to me looks exactly like a carbon copy of the Puls-R. Anyone know anyhing about those?

If you do a search, youll find that this topic had been covered back when this news first came out.  Happy fishing.
