TELESCOPIC WHIPS
It’s the simplest and oldest type of fishing rod,
faithful companion in the early experiences and
strong ally in the competitions, which has no limits
of use from fresh to salt waters, in Italy and around
the world. Despite everybody talk about pole as first
lady of match fishing scene, in 2015 the humble
whip brought to Gianluigi Sorti another World title,
confirming its consistent actuality and its extreme
effectiveness. But it is thanks to the Trabucco’s
creativity and technology that today we can fish
with a wonderful rod, because the exclusive
Energhia Pro XR is no longer a normal whip, but
a tool that comes out of the tradition to offer a lot
more and be talked about itself as never before.

ENERGHIA XR PRO POLE
Beautiful whips displaying lots of genuine versatility: they can switch from bleak fishing
to more challenging fights with stunning ease. The reaction to impulse is quite fast,
but under load the rod bends harmoniously, allowing the use of thin hooklinks in case
of need. It’s a merit of Trabucco X-Joint technology, which improves the joint’s construction
to give them an extraordinary flexibility: the rod draws an impeccable action
curve, is stronger than the norm and the residual oscillations at the end of the cast are
quite limited. At the base of the male joints, a special band milling prevents formation
of vacuum in presence of humidity, avoiding the section’s accidental locking. Each rod
is supplied with a special rolling connector, which can be applied to the tip to ease the
line’s link; the body of the device rotates freely around its axis, actually dropping the risk
of line overlapping on tip section. Finally, a practical Velcro band allows to fix the winder
to butt section, when carrying it with the rig already fitted.

FEATURES
It’s well known that all joints connecting
rod’s sections are weak points, both from
strength and action’s point of view, as they
cause those “dead spots” which are risky
in term of breakage, beyond the bad looking.
The solution is hidden in the X-JOINT
technology, which means that - on joints
area - carbon cloths are laid by 45° angle
instead of 90°.
In the rods produced with the computer assistance,
the joint’s precision is so high that, when
they are wet, it is possible to form the vacuum,
resulting in very tight section’s locking. The problem
is prevented by creating thin air chambers
through cross bands milled on the male side of
each joint, and this is one of the new technology
specifications that enrich Energhia XR Pro.
ENERGHIA 2K EXTREME
Brand new series of telepole rods built in CX-2 super high modulus carbon, designed
for high level competition. The blank of these rods is incredibly slim (we mean REALLY
slim: 22.7 mm for the 8 meters model) and highly performing, while the tip section is
tubular and not spliced. The blank is perfectly balanced, and it is possible to fish for
hours without any problem. We do believe to have achieved the best production possible
with the technology available nowadays.
TRADITIONAL REINFORCEMENT
• Stress is concentrated at both ends
• Dead spots, risk of breakage
45° REINFORCEMENT (X-JOINT)
• Stress is dispersed along the blank
• Perfect curve, no breakage risk

• Perfect curve, without dead spots.
• Unique coexistence of flexibility and
stiffness
• Higher structural strength, because stress
is dispersed through the blank, instead of
being concentrated on joint’s ends.
• Less oscillations at the end of casting,
which means quicker re-alignment of
guides.
Within X-Joint by Trabucco, the carbon
cloth is wound by two directions, and such
construction is visible on top end of each
section.

THE FANTASTIC ROLLING CONNECTOR
Each Energhia Pro XR rod comes with a special
line connector, to be glued on top tip, that eliminates
line tangles thanks to a rotating device,
similar to a microscopic swivel, which is connected
to a string that ends with a slight head.
The weight of such connector is absolutely irrelevant,
but its benefits can be immediately seen.
THE VELCRO BAND
The swivelling connector
enables to link the rig
without tangle risk.
(to be glued on tip top)
HOW TO CONNECT THE RIG LINE
1. Make two loops on top of the rig line;
one large, the other fairly small.
2. Wrap the main loop around the tip string
and tighten it.
3. To remove the rig, simply pull the small
loop and it will be released.

The carbon fibers oriented
along the longitudinal
rod’s axis (0° unidirectional
carbon) provide
great resistance to linear
traction.
The carbon fibers oriented
at 90° to longitudinal
rod’s axis enable the cross
section to resist the compression
caused by strong
flexion.
The X-Joint carbon fibers,
oriented at ±45° to rod’s
axis, are able to absorb and
disperse the torque, improving
the joint’s performance and
saving the rest of the section.
A light Velcro band, supplied with the
rod, enables to fix the rig’s winder to
the butt, when it’s stored in the holdall
with the rig on.
