Airflo Superflo Ridge 2.0 Power Taper Fly Line Floating
Prices incl. VAT plus shipping costs
The Airflo Superflo Ridge 2.0 Power Taper Fly Line is a truly powerful floating line with a compact design. It has a relatively short head that creates outstanding casting properties. Due to a high weight distribution towards the front of the line, it will load your rod quickly and it allows perfect roll and Spey casts. Further, it will easily transport large flies, indicator rigs and sinking leaders. This provides a great amount of flexibility, which allows you to adapt to the circumstances that you are facing – no matter what. It is equipped with the so-called Ridge 2.0 Technology. This is a special surface structure with grooves running parallel to the line. This structure enables significantly reduced friction, impressive shooting properties and silent lifting from the surface. In fact, this updated version of the Ridge Technology is much smoother and it is very quiet while casting. In addition, it has a so-called “Haul Zone” with a length of 3,6 m. This is a slightly thicker section between running line and head for improved line control while casting and while fishing. Furthermore, it provides a direct power transmission and it noticeably stabilizes the head while shooting. Combined with a very smooth coating, a thin running line and the Ridge 2.0 Technology, this creates outstanding shooting properties for an impressive casting distance. But this line is also great at close range since it will load your rod quickly. This is a huge advantage in situations with limited casting space. Therefore, it is also a great choice for fishing smaller streams. Last but not least, it is more durable compared to conventional PVC lines due to its innovative PU coating.
In short: The versatile Airflo Superflo Ridge 2.0 Power Taper really deserves its name since it is a truly powerful fly line. This workhorse will cast everything you might need – whether a small dry fly or a weighted streamer on a sinking leader!

Established back in 1990, the American manufacturer Airflo is known worldwide for high-quality fly lines and all kinds of leaders. In contrast to the lines of many other manufacturers, these lines are not made of PVC. They consist of polyurethane and they are completely PVC-free. Thus, they do not contain any plasticisers, which would evaporate over time. Therefore, these lines have multiple environmental benefits: They do not release harmful plasticisers into our waters and they save valuable resources due to their excellent durability. Further, they combine an outstanding performance with a great value for money. In addition to modern fly lines, this large selection also includes shooting heads, running lines and all kinds of leaders. Therefore, Airflo offers the perfect line for every type of fishing – whether you’re fishing in fresh or saltwater!
