Re: ICSF

Got a similar problem here Bart. Perhaps more complicated because there is ICSF membership in Malaysia but I’m not sure if it’s current or who is paying. I did try writing to the listed association but never had a reply. This will be one for others to fix :D Malaysia was granted trial membership a ...

Re: ICSF

Many federations (see point 1.) require to decrease membership fees to a minimum or not to pay for it at all. They say that it is a high amount and they will not take part in the World Championship. Their reasoning is that only several competitors practice this sport in their countries and in that ...

Magnus

Class results 👍🏻 Well done all especially the ladies!
Please correct me if I’m wrong, Tellis’s total is down as 113.5m yet is made up of a 57.5LH and a 56.5 RH (=114m)?

Re: Two heads cast at the same time

Ah OK - that makes more sense! If you cast the reversed head on its own can you get it to fly better? With my two hybrid lines I had real problems with the front loaded tapers when casting slow. In particular I had the last section come through very low on the front weighted line. (Looks like the w...

Cheers, Paul
Yes mate, I said it a few posts back in reply to John, all the biggest distances in 55g casting here (70+m) have come from using reversed heads.

Re: Two heads cast at the same time

No Paul, the reversed head turned second in both examples with the Gaelforce lines 😉

Just look at the contrast between the two lines as they are getting launched, the near side line is thicker near the rod tip and it’s quite obvious thats the one which is the right way round.
