Hey Guys,

I have been asked to build a few flipping sticks. My first choice was the BB1 or BB3 but Im not shure they are telescoping blanks. I don't think they are or are they. I cant seem to find his requirments (7'6", telescoping, Etra Heavy, Fast). I mainly just rewrap and repair his and freinds rods.

Using
Micro Recoil Guides (They look cool, plus you dont have to worry about the insert coming out)+ Recoil tip.
Need Rod.
No foregrip.
Minma Reel seat (simular to the one on a carrot stick)
3.5" Eva Foam behind the reel seat.
Eva foam butt cap.
2oz. Rod Balancing Butt Cap System glued to the buttcap.

The rods are goin to be kind of simple but thats the way I like to build rods. These are for tournament fisherman. They always joke with me and say being preety aint never caught no fish! Plus less for them to mess up. lol

Thanks
BJ Barron

Check Batson, they have telescopic flipping blanks. I have 2 flipping sticks made from them. But I would not classify them as Extra Hvy.
