Serice" LCSG, MNST
Manufacturer:FUJI KOGYO
Co.,Ltd.
Design:FUJI KOGYO CO.,LTD. PRESIDENT RYUICHI OHMURA
Price:600 to 2,200 yen
New fishing pole guide eliminates
the problem of tangled lines when casting. Using an ultra-high
speed camera, designers scientifically studied the "tangling"
mechanism and incorporated the results into product development.
The guide reduces the problems caused by tangled lines; decreases
frame size and length; provides accurate guide calculations;
and reduces the weight of the guide to improve pole functionality.
The designers were commended for incorporating serious consideration
of a traditional problem into product development and improvement;
creating a functional yet beautifully designed product; and
integrating the results of comprehensive research into product
design to resolve this problem.
