How It's Made - Omega Rod Holder

by YakAttack

In this video, follow along with Chad Hoover and YakAttack production manager, Sundari Cifers, as they show how an Omega Rod Holder goes from plastic pellets to a rod holder on the shelf of your local retailer. Chad was visiting Farmville, VA, during hunting season and wanted to film a quick how-to for his TV show, Chad Hoover Fishing, and we thought the Omega would be the perfect product to highlight. The Omega Rod Holder was an exciting product for us. It came at a time where we were still developing our tooling and injection molding capabilities. On top of that, the Omega and Omega Pro Rod Holder were also the first YakAttack products to feature the LockNLoad Mounting System. Since its release in the winter of 2017, the LockNLoad Mounting System has changed the way we approach kayak rigging and product design. The LockNLoad Mounting System was unlike anything else in the fishing and paddlesports market, and even outside of our industry, the proprietary technology stands separated from the rest of the pack.
