TELESCOPIC WHIPS X-JOINT TECHNOLOGY 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°. It is applied both on Energhia XR Master-T and Atomic FR Power Lite, with the consequent advantages here after listed.
0° UNI-DIRECTIONAL CARBON
90° SCRIM CARBON
+ The carbon fibers oriented along the longitudinal rod’s axis (0° unidirectional carbon) provide great resistance to linear traction.
45° REINFORCEMENT (X-JOINT)
• Stress is concentrated at both ends • Dead spots, risk of breakage
• Stress is dispersed along the blank • Perfect curve, no breakage risk
X-JOINT ± 45° CARBON TECHNOLOGY
+ The carbon fibers oriented at 90° to longitudinal rod’s axis enable the cross section to resist the compression caused by strong flexion.
TRADITIONAL REINFORCEMENT
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.
• 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.
ATOMIC FR POWER LITE It’s the natural sister of Atomic bolos: nice but aggressive, very aggressive when it’s time to show the muscles. And it’s dressed in line with them, with a young, fresh cosmetic which should recall that Trabucco’s know-how can reproduce the same reliability and strength of bolo also in a telescopic pole. But its technological rate makes it clearly different, because it features joints able to follow its action curve without dead spots, without risk of breakages and without residual oscillations at the end of the casting effort (X-Joint). A physical behavior that brings it closer to the fantastic Energhia XR Master-T, in fact making it belong to another world. The tubular top is perfect for all demanding situations: from heavy fishing in the rivers to the use at sea, the Atomic FR is always at home showing off a wonderful mix of strength (Power) and lightness (Lite).
The Atomic FR belongs to the hi-tech whips, thanks to the X-Joint technology applied on the joints. The special 45° carbon weaving is visible on the top of the butt section, while in the other joints it is hidden below the Cross Winding carbon filament.

A strong High Resistance carbon filament protects the Atomic FR blank from sudden shocks and excessive ovalization under stress, which could drastically compromise its career.
