Description
This launch represents a bold new chapter in the Evoluzion legacydesigned for anglers who demand uncompromising innovation and performance.
Journey back a quarter-century and witness the rod that fearlessly cast into the 21st centurya rod forever etched into the souls of seasoned anglers.Its name: Destroyer Evoluzion.
Originally built on the flagship blanks and mandrels of the Megabass Destroyer, ITO Engineering achieved a groundbreaking advancement by implanting titanium fibers within the original Destroyers carbon graphite layers, opening the door to an entirely new dimension of rod engineering.
Each Evoluzion iteration distinguished itself clearly from the ultra-high modulus original Destroyer, gaining a supple, torque-rich character defined by titaniums uniquely responsive elasticity. This innovation perfectly embodied the sophisticated ergonomics demanded by professional anglers enduring lengthy tournament battles.
Now, 25 years after its debut, ITO Engineering introduces a completely reimagined titanium blanks format, meticulously crafted to adapt to the increasingly diverse demands of contemporary and future bass fishing methods and techniques.
Utilizing ultra-low-resin, high-modulus MX40 carbon graphite, intricately combined with fine micro-titanium fibers made from shape-memory super titanium, this revolutionary composite achieves unprecedented tensile strength. The result: a dynamically evolved new titanium composite shaft, boasting over 17% greater bending capacity and exhibiting a robust fusion of rigidity and resilient flexibility.
Enhanced shape-memory properties of the super titanium amplify vibration transmission with a metallic sharpness, enriching the torque-responsive shaft with heightened sensitivity.
In essence, the latest Evoluzion dramatically elevates “underwater clarity,” significantly expanding versatility in fast-moving presentations while simultaneously delivering a high-tension, decisive hook-setting experience for heavy cover and deep-water scenarios such as jigs and Texas rigsan entirely new evolution for the Evoluzion legacy.

The rods Super Titanium fibers deliver exceptional elasticity under load, effortlessly setting hooks into wary trophy fish and generating surprising torque to confidently win extended battles.
A refined evolution of the classic Destroyer spinning model LYCAON, this super titanium-enhanced variant sets a new benchmark for finesse versatility.
A long-awaited model crafted for expert anglers who build their game around mid-strolling.
LAIKIRI – F3.1/2-73tix
Length: 7’3″ | Lure capacity: 1/8-5/8oz | Line capacity: 6-16lb | Taper: MEDIUM FAST
Named after the legendary lightning-splitting sword, LAIKIRI is the flagship spinning model of the EVOLUZION series. Engineered for superior long-casting performance with light rigs and 1/20z class shad and minnow plugs, its titanium-reinforced blank surpasses traditional spinning rods in strength, rigidity, resilience, and responsiveness.
Ergonomically balanced by the Slant Bridge grip, this 73 rod handles smoothly with compact movements, enabling anglers to swiftly cover vast water expanses without fatigue. The light tip allows for nimble reaction, turning this long rod into a precision strike in open terrain. The LAIKIRI introduces a new standard for power spinning rods, offering lightning-fast responsiveness, extraordinary distance, and dominating strength.
HEDGEHOG STINGER – F4.1/2st-62tix
Length: 6’2″ | Lure capacity: 1/8-3/4oz | Line capacity: 8-20lb | Taper: EX. FAST
The legendary HEDGEHOG STINGER, now enhanced with Super Titanium, redefines cover-finesse spinning tactics. Merging a specialized solid-tip developed by the HEDGEHOG series with the robust titanium blank of Evoluzion, this rod offers unmatched strength and sensitivity for fishing tight cover.
Designed to excel in situations where finesse is necessary, but retreat is not an optionwhether targeting thick timber, tangled bushes, or laydownsusing its intense torque to wrench big fish from cover with overwhelming force. Its solid tip detects subtle bites with stunning clarity and the MX40 Super Titanium Hybrid shaft ensures quick, dominating hooksets.
The HEDGEHOG STINGERs refined strength, now elevated by titanium construction, marks a significant evolution in cover-finesse spinning, earning its place as a true Game Changer.
With LAIKIRI, a new chapter in long-distance power spinning begins.
HEDGEHOG SYRINGE – F3st-611ti
