Century Excalibur Total Tournament 14ft 10 Titanium K Guides

Century Excalibur Total Tournament (TT) (14ft 10in | 48oz)

The Century Excalibur Total Tournament (TT) is a legendary masterpiece of British engineering, widely regarded as the ultimate tool for both extreme rough ground fishing and world-class distance casting. This is a no-compromise rod, built for the elite angler who demands maximum power to conquer the most punishing conditions. With a proven track record of winning casting competitions and setting world records, the TT is the benchmark by which all other high-performance beachcasters are measured.

Despite its massive 14 10 frame and solid 24.6mm butt diameter, the TT is surprisingly sophisticated. By utilizing HPR (High Performance Resin) technology, Century has reduced the tip weight by up to 25%, significantly lowering the moment of inertia. This results in a lightning-fast recovery and a level of bite detection that is truly remarkable for a rod with this much raw grunt.

Technical Specifications

Key Performance Technologies

• World-Class Gearbox Design: The phased taper in the butt section is engineered for extreme power storage. It allows the rod to handle the most aggressive pendulum and off-the-ground casting styles, seamlessly transferring energy to the lead.

• HPR Advanced Tip: The high-performance resin matrix makes the tip exceptionally light and responsive. This fast recovery is crucial for gaining extra yards during the cast and provides a high-definition view of bites in heavy surf.

• Autoclave Technology: The blank is cured under extreme pressure to ensure total resin consolidation. This prevents the rod from softening over time, ensuring the TT retains its record-breaking action for life.

• Anti-Twist Technology (AT-T): During a high-power cast, the blank is subjected to immense torque. AT-T prevents the rod from twisting, keeping the guides perfectly aligned and ensuring your cast is both laser-accurate and incredibly long.

Examples of Where to Use

• Extreme Rough Ground: The definitive rod for winching big Cod and Conger through heavy kelp and over jagged rock ledges.

• Competition Casting: A top-tier choice for tournament casters looking to break the 250+ yard barrier.

• Big Tide & Heavy Sea Specialist: When the wind is howling and the tide is racing, the TT has the stability to hold bottom with 8oz leads where other rods would be swept away.

• Specimen Hunting: Perfect for the largest shore-caught species, including Rays, Tope, and Shark, where you need absolute confidence in your gear.

Pro Tip from Gerrys Fishing

Mastering the Beast: The Excalibur TT is a specialist tool that rewards proper technique. Because the blank diameter is too large for a standard reel seat, it is supplied with Century Coasters. This is a massive advantage: it allows you to position the reel at the exact height that fits your arm span, whether you prefer high-reel for maximum leverage or low-reel for a more traditional stance. For night fishing over rough ground, the 3M reflective tape on the tip is a lifesaverit helps you distinguish between the movement of the tide and the sharp rattle of a fish in the kelp
