The F3.1/2-72XS WIND BUSTER is the first choice to face a huge and varied field. It offers an ideal balance of length and power to handle both finesse softbaits and smaller hardbaits - especially when strong headwinds make baits difficult to cast with baitcasting setups. Powered by the 5-D GRAPHITE SYSTEM, the WIND BUSTER exhibits crisp recovery performance and unexpected torque, enlivening presentations from shaky heads to jerkbaits. The medium-speed taper unwinds with silky smoothness, transferring the load where it's best supported. This allows for both delicate pole work and dominating performance depending on the situation.
5D GRAPHITE SYSTEM
The newly developed blank technology as part of the experimental LAIHA project is the 5-D GRAPHITE SYSTEM. As the name suggests, this blank construction method uses five prepreg patterns to best address five elements - vertical axis, horizontal axis, oblique axis, stretch and elasticity - and combine each in a careful puzzle matrix to achieve the to maximize application-specific performance of each blank. The cohesiveness of each finished puzzle allows disparate pieces to fuse together, reducing unnecessary prepreg overlap of traditional patterns and layers. It allows for more precise smooth taper and seamless load transition for truly intuitive performance.
DESTROYER HEAD LOCKING SYSTEM 3 (PAT.)
Based on the machined aluminum head locking structure developed in the LAIHA concept project, the new Destroyer® HEAD LOCKING SYSTEM 3 is optimized for production status. The lightest of all Destroyer® series to date, the structure minimizes possible blind resonance and vibration transmission through the reel, in addition to highlighting the specially designed elegance of each rod model.
IBCS (ITO BIONOMICS CASTING SEAT)
Guided by angler bionomics, the Megabass Original IBCS reel seat is an achievement in angler and equipment integration, ushering in a new era of comfort, utility and performance. Minimalist grip contours and a sturdy short trigger design allow for intuitive grip transitions as the angler moves through the cycle of casting, rod work, hook setting and landing.
Empty contact areas are maximized to deliver precise feedback without sacrificing control. The carefully shaped squat trigger design is wide and short to provide the grip you need for casting heavy lures and managing hard-pulling crankbaits.
Regardless of your preferred style, the new IBCS seat ensures secure support in every situation.
DESTROYER ORIGINAL SOLID THREAD
Fuji TITANIUM FRAME SiC-S GUIDE
To further reduce unnecessary weight and improve performance, the Destroyer® features a smaller diameter thread made from special fiber, allowing for tighter and more effective guide wraps. This not only minimizes the wrap area and associated epoxy to reduce weight, but also minimizes any negative impact that hard epoxy guide wraps can have on the natural bend curve of the blank. The result is a smoother, more intuitive blank with minimalist threading for maximum strength and performance.

Wieland Warme -
In terms of quality, the Wind Buster, like all Destroyer rods, is a masterpiece that can't really be improved in any meaningful way. The sensitivity is simply beyond good and bad and the blank is incredibly tight.
In my opinion, the specified power rating F3.1/2 doesn't fit at all. At no point do I see this rod as a hardbait rod, except perhaps as a hard jerkbait rod. The action is SO hard and unyielding, even with a casting weight of just over 10g the blank hardly charges, and with weights less than that it doesn't charge at all. This rod was intended to be ML+ because it is also said to have excellent finesse properties. No chance.
I haven't maxed out the Wind Buster, but I think it can throw far more than 21g. For me it is not an all-round medium spinning, but clearly a Jig & Worm Medium Heavy that could easily be given an F4.1/2 or even F5 rating.
