You don't need carbon fiber.. you just need a pair of gloves. =D>

Cool! I know expensive equipment isn't necessary but I love it! Good to see them stepping up their game! I still want a Zillion though....

Of course you don't "need" carbon fiber, but it sure is light and purty :wink:

It would be much cooler if the entire reel was made of carbon fiber, or atleast sideplates. That handle is pretty sweet though. Too bad I am looking for a new spinning combo

I'm sure it won't take them or some other company to get on the bandwagon and "upgrade" their spinning reels with something similar. I can imagine something along the lines of a carbon fiber spinning reel spool, or handle
