Noah from Kicking The Bass TV here with another quick video. Out on this Easter Sunday, out on the lake, just enjoying the view and everything. And have a little quick review for you guys over my new Avid X by St. Croix Rods. I got it at the Bassmaster Classic not too long ago. Just haven't been able to break it down and get a review out to you guys. Had a lot of tournaments going on. A lot of stuff. So let's hop into the review. Comparing this to the normal Avid X, the normal Avid X has a full cork handle. And I'm not the biggest fan of full cork handles. I do own a couple Avid's, but I do prefer a split grip handle and or the other handles like the Rage Rod or my Legend Extreme by St. Croix Rods. I like more of non-full grip cork handles on a rod. So that's what I really like about the Avid X. I like how they did a split grip handle. It is cork, but I don't have a problem with that as long as it's split grip. I really like what they did about that. Also, a new big thing that they did to the Avid X is the eyes. The eyes are much smaller and I actually got to throw one of these. I swear it was helping me cast further. I don't know if it's just because I put new line on one reel or anything else, but I swear it was helping me cast a little further. But those eyelids are much smaller. I actually really like that on this rod comparing it to the regular Avid. It's a little different. I'm really light rod and it's really balanced. That's what I really like about it. Some rods you have are really back heavy or some are a little front heavy. This one's more on balance and really lightweight. That's what I really like about this rod. First time I put it in my hand. So if you guys are looking for a new, great rod, go check out the Avid X by St. Croix Rods. This is Noah Pescatelli from Kickin' Their Bass TV. I'll see you guys next time.
