💎 A Limited Legacy of 14 Masterpieces
The 2026 Soul & Spiral Collection is a strictly limited run of only 14 unique units (numbered No. 2 through No. 15). Each rod is a one-of-a-kind original, individually tuned on a lathe and hand-signed by Mario Díaz — a passionate angler and master builder who has cast lines from the legendary waters of Argentina to his own workshop in Valencia, and pours that lifetime of experience into every rod he signs.

⚠️ Exclusivity Warning: Once Unit No. 8 is sold, this specific configuration will never be replicated. You are securing a numbered piece of fly fishing history.

🪵 The “Soul”: Handcrafted Detailing
The “Soul” of Unit No. 8 lives in its exquisite finish. Unlike mass-produced tools, this rod features:

• Hand-Sculpted Grip: Turned on a lathe from 100% premium cork for an organic connection.
• Artisan Reel Seat: A hand-finished detail that provides a striking, high-contrast aesthetic against the raw graphite blank.

🔬 Technical Mastery: The Soul & Spiral Philosophy

High-Modulus Graphite & “Stealth” Precision: Following Gary Loomis’ philosophy, this elite blank is stripped of heavy decorative lacquers. By using pure high-modulus graphite, swing weight is minimized to an absolute minimum — the result is a lightning-fast recovery and a surgical sensitivity that feels like a direct extension of your nervous system.

The Spiral Guide System (Acid Wrap): Engineered to defy friction, drawing inspiration from Thomas & Thomas and Japanese engineering. The inverted stripping guide configuration ensures the line never touches the metal guide “legs” (zero-frame friction), creating a clean tunnel for maximum distance and fluid delivery.
