The Garbolino Essential Legend X1000 is the flagship model in the Super Competition Series, representing the ultimate choice for anglers who demand the very highest levels of performance.
Constructed from premium High Modulus Japanese Toray Carbon, the Essential Legend X1000 showcases Garbolino's latest advancements in pole design. By combining cutting-edge materials with precision engineering, Garbolino has positioned the balance point closer to the angler, significantly reducing downforce and creating a pole that feels exceptionally light, perfectly balanced and effortless to handle.
The result is outstanding rigidity with minimal bounce, a faster and more positive response, improved bite-to-hook-up conversion, superior rig control and reduced angler fatigue, allowing anglers to fish comfortably and accurately throughout the longest sessions.
Drawing on more than 80 years of pole-building expertise, Garbolino designs and manufactures its own mandrels, giving complete control over every stage of production. Combined with continuous innovation and a deep understanding of modern match fishing, the Essential Legend X1000 delivers the exceptional performance, refinement and reliability expected from Garbolino's flagship competition pole.

- Pole warranty (UK only) covers manufacturing faults or material defects only.
- Accidental damage or misuse is not covered. For example damage caused by crushing, incorrectly fitted section or impact damage would not be considered for replacement.
- Any modification to sections would invalidate your warranty. For example, drilling kits for puller systems would be considered as modification, even if the sections have reinforcement to allow this, it is at your risk! Fitting nose cones would also be considered as modification.
- Benwick Sports may in certain circumstances agree to change sections if we feel it is a genuine warranty claim. If we are unsure we will return the section to the manufacturer for them to make the final decision.

For example if you buy a rod or pole and a section breaks within the UK warranty period we cannot claim against our supplier as their warranty is only valid inside the UK. We would always suggest that you insure expensive items against damage during use in case of breakages.
