If you are asking about the new Ethos rods, there is one spinning model available. It is a 6'8" medium action finesse rod. I'm not sure if there is an H2O Precip model or not. The new Ethos rods are very good rods for the money. Quality components for $60. Can't beat it.
Wishin I was fishin!

I have used the ethos spinning rod quite a bit. It is a very good rod. I like it a lot for throwing drop shot.

I broke a ethos 7 ft heavy last night lifting a 2 lb bass into the boat. It broke about a foot of the tip off into 3 pieces. Not impressed , switched to my falcon 6'8 and boated 7 more fish from 1 to 5 lbs. with no problems.

Just like cars anything that is made into something will always have defects even Falcon rods have problems too

Like I said all companies have bad products I had no problems lifting this bad boy ashore With my 7 ' ethos rod and this fish is every bit of 20 lbs +
