I like very much grips of the preceding models.. Why the new models both LTA and carbon and argon have a grip with cork and eva together?
Excuse me for my english.I'm italian...

We have tried to create a look and feel like no other rod company so that we could stand out among those that have decided to copy our original designs of split grip / no fore grip handles. The eva foam is for comfort and the cork is for grip. Enjoy!

Thanks,
In any case I hope for the future you would change the grips.
Actually I have two LTA '08 but certainly I will not buy a LTA '09 :cry:

You might want to give the new 2009 LTA a try. I have several 2008 LTA's with the full cork grip and love them. However, stepping out of my usual form and being open minded, I bought a 2009 LTA. I found that the Split Grip Cork/ EVA combination is not only more comfortable, it has a better balanced fulcrum and lightens the rod up.
If you give it a try, you will like them!
