Fox Horizon X5 - S 12ft 3.25lb ABBR

For many years, the Horizon X5 has been known for its exceptional rod performance. In an effort to continually improve our products, our development team has worked to optimize this series, which has now become the Horizon X5 S.

Visually, the main differences come from the K series rings, ranging from 16mm to 50mm, with a striking Gunsmoke finish, similar to the new Fuji 18mm DPS reel seat. The K series rings are integrated for optimal performance, reducing the risk of tangling and line breakage during casting, allowing for consistent line flow and improved casting distance and accuracy.

Horizon X5 S rods are designed around a lightweight, thin and resilient blank that offers excellent strength and power. Combining the latest carbon shaping techniques, the blank is made up of multiple layers of thin carbon sheets and a nanofiber for reinforcement. This allows for a faster return on compression, improving accuracy and casting distance while maintaining the rod's ability to defend itself and reduce the risk of stalling.

In addition, all joints are reinforced with carbon to ensure long-term durability and reliability. The rod is also finished with a carbon coating for a sleek look and exceptional quality.
