New Normark Rods

Apparently all the new Normark rods are being sent out for delivery today. I'm interested in 12-14 Avenger tbh and looking for comparisons to my Daiwa 14ft sm2 xp, if the normark is better, well tbh I hope so, as I really want a new Normark to add to my limited collection...

I really believe you would like the Preston supera X power float at 14ft Jon.
Obviously I can’t say for sure so a waggle would definitely be required as a minimum but it definitely ticks a lot of boxes for you. It’s especially good with sliders and stop knots having the larger bored high stand off guides.
I’ve had 2 barbel on mine now one from the snaggy summer nene at a shade over 10lb and found the rod to be very capable at what it does.
Can’t comment on the new avengers unfortunately as I haven’t seen any of them in the flesh. Heard positive comments though from those that spent time testing them.
 
Thank you Richard, my local shops getting some Normarks in this week, so hoping to swing by and look at the supera aswell....
