"Big baits don't fly." Shimano's technology, Arma Boost, which breaks this common sense, was born in 2022. The Arma Joint 190 equipped with Arma Boost, and the giant bait Arma Joint 280, overturned the common sense of the big bait world with their flight distance and fishing ability. In 2025, a new Arma Boost-equipped lure was born. Shimano's development team and Manabu Okuda aimed to update the lure called "glide bait", which is particularly difficult to achieve a long flight distance among big baits. With the conventional Arma Boost structure, it was possible to improve the flight distance, but it was not possible to achieve the desired action. Therefore, we began developing a new Arma Boost structure. After producing more than 100 samples and trial and error, we achieved both flight distance and action, and created the lure we truly wanted. The Gravitator 220SF, a confident work created together by Shimano's development team and big bait world genius Manabu Okuda, is born. ■Please follow Shimano's official social media accounts■ Instagram / shimanofishing_jp Facebook / fishing.shimano X https://twitter.com/Shimano_Fishing?s=20 TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@shimanofishin... ↓↓Please check the product page for product information↓↓ Gravitator 220SF https://fish.shimano.com/ja-JP/produc... *The link above will display the latest model. #Shimano #BigBait #glidebait #OkudaManabu
