XO SKELETON EPITOME MB725 WITH CARBON GUIDES

This rod is proudly built in the USA using exclusive carbon components and next-level composite manufacturing technology. Every detail is designed for anglers who demand maximum performance, strength, and weight reduction without compromise.

The handle features the industry-leading XO Grip, combining one of our most popular rear grip shapes with an integrated carbon reel seat. The result is a seamless, ultra-lightweight, incredibly comfortable grip system that does not require the blank to extend through the full rear grip, reducing unnecessary weight while improving balance.

Outfitted with NFC ATLAS® Carbon Guides, this rod delivers unmatched durability and performance. These guides feature Zirconia inserts (8.5 Mohs hardness) and a uniquely engineered carbon frame with an elevated impact lip for superior protection and long-term adhesion. Built from 1K angle-plied carbon fiber and finished with a specialized scratch-resistant resin, the guide system is designed to resist micro-fractures and prevent insert failure over time.

At the core is the blank—built on NFC’s Next Generation X-Ray “C6O2” Carbon Air material, a breakthrough composite technology engineered for extreme sensitivity and strength. The result is a blank that is 30% lighter than traditional X-Ray construction and up to 50% stronger, delivering an unbelievably crisp feel that truly feels like holding air.
