Responsive power with finesse — built for anglers who fight smart

The OceanRidge Reversal GT 80 Nano offers a lighter, more responsive feel without compromising on the strength and control needed to tackle monster GTs. Developed using Toray’s NANOALLOY® technology, the blank is lighter, stronger, and noticeably more sensitive — giving anglers total connection to their lure, line, and the water.

With a smooth, progressive bend and increasing torque as the rod loads up, the GT 80 excels with diving stickbaits and small to mid-sized poppers. It casts effortlessly and responds well to subtle inputs, making it ideal for anglers who rely on precision and timing over brute force — especially those in the ~65kg range or anglers looking for a less fatiguing topwater setup.

It’s also a great introduction to Ripple Fisher’s OceanRidge series, offering a balanced feel with serious fish-fighting performance when the pressure’s on.
