Guys,
Its been a while in the making but available now are the new Snyder-Glas blanks from Wilsons/Kilwell. The models available are listed on the website there is only Estuary and Surf models available at present which were the most popular. They are available in Cherry and Black colours. I am at the AFTA trade show this week so I will have a play with them and let you know what I think.

Okay Guys,
Back from the AFTA show and caught up. I had a good look and play with the new Snyderglas rods from Wilson/Kilwell and you wouldn't know the difference. The prices of the blanks are a lot more then when they were coming from Snyderglas Brisbane. Kilwell are using a epoxy cloth now on all models where as Snyders Brisbane were Polyester resin cloth. Epoxy a fair bit dearer and now a third party involved Kilwell so I guess they were going to be more expensive no matter what.
