Product Specs:
 

Introducing the newest addition to the St. Croix fly rod family - the Legend Elite®. The first fly rods to incorporate St. Croix's revolutionary Integrated Poly Curve technology - the same technology that's made our Legend Elite spinning and casting rods the leader in their categories. A dramatic improvement over the compound tapering method used by other high-end rod manufacturers, IPC® rods are built on one continuous curve which eliminates weak spots. The result is mind-staggering cannon-like casting power coupled with a remarkable degree of feel. Built from our high-modulus, high-strain SCV graphite with carbon-matte scrim and outfitted with the absolute finest components available, these rods would be nothing short of amazing even if we stopped there. Add our new slim-profile ferrule technology to the package (especially nice on four- and five-piece models) and they are arguably downright dangerous.
Integrated Poly Curve Technology
In 2000, St. Croix introduced a breakthrough rod building process known as Integrated Poly Curve Technology in Legend Elite® spinning and casting rods. This year we’ve integrated this amazing engineering into our new Legend Elite fly rods.

IPC® allows us to taper the rod on one continuous curve from tip to butt. This is a profound improvement on the previous process used in creating high-end rods known as compound tapering — which can create weak points in the blank. With IPC technology there are no weak spots — just crisp, clean casts like you’ve never experienced before.

Traditional Linear compound taper Design
Linear transition Points
Transformed into poly-curves
Note: the “uneven” wall thickness on compound-tapered blank versus “even” wall thickness on IPC-Engineered blank.
IPC-engineered rods feature smoother actions because the graphite is rolled and compacted onto the rodmaking mandrel in one continuous taper, rather than a series of measured slope changes (as in compound tapering).
IPC eliminates all transitional points of weakness on the blank.
IPC blanks are stronger because
stress is distributed along the entire blank.
IPC tapers result in superior graphite fiber alignment along the length of the blank.

This ensures better longitudinal strength because the fiber alignment is never distorted at transition points. It also results in more uniform strength, stiffness and sensitivity along the entire blank shaft for better vibration transmission and enhanced feel.
