The Slideswimmer 175 came from the success of it's big bother the 250. Originally a solid foam body the 175 received the same upgrade in 2015. With the ABS body the Mirco Vibe Spring Weight was added along with foil inserts, ghost & clear colour patterns. In 2017 the 145 was added to the line up, packed with all the goods in a smaller profile and quickly stepped out of it's predecessor's shadow.
The 175 Slideswimmer is available in Slow Sinking and a Floating model. While the SS has the Micro Spring Weight, the Floating has had this removed thus making it a silent model as well. Both the 175 & 145 have the adjustable weight tuning system pictured above.
Over the past few years, both sizes have had great success in fresh & salt water environments for a host of species, including Cod, Mulloway, Bass and Barra. In the past 12 months the 145 has been holding it's own in the Barra tournament scene in north Queensland including a number of podium finishes and a win.
