mike, i agree, they did hit a home run in my opinion too on the 1201MH. from what i know, no nano-tech used in the ssu series, but a lot of other technology that was new at the time was.
nano isn't new. it's been used by asian companies for a couple years now. just slow to get into the states. i've built serveral tuna rods on blanks from companies utilizing nano. time will tell how lami does w/ this lineup. every new surf series has seemed to fizzle quicker than the previous. but, it's about time they looked at more than just the blank when building a rod. i laughed when i saw the production layout of the alberto-series. nice blank, but should have skipped COF. i'm happy they at least used K's on the builds. We'll see how the layouts are. i'm also happy they kept the GSb/Surf and Jetty production rods. it gives an option for people not wanting to empty their wallets. hopefully, they will change those guide layout as well. they could use an overhaul.

Agree. 2 pc is for women's bathing suits (some women, at least). |

Although 2 piece rods have come a long way, I still prefer one piece and eliminate a potential weak point. Surprised they did not have a one piece option.

Could be they don't have an autoclave big enough. |

Shipping costs, and improved ferruling technology which eliminates the "dead spot" at the ferrule.
Seriously---these rods have ferrules that are machined so closely, and fit so tightly, that they're difficult to get apart after one is done fishing. |
