Choose 3.3 m for a 30 g casting rating or 3.5 m for 35 g. Both suit small feeders at short to medium range, with the longer rod offering 20 cm more length and a 5 g higher rating.
Both versions include two 2.2 mm carbon tips. The 3.3 m rod includes 0.5 oz and 1.0 oz tips. Ratings for the 3.5 m rod conflict in the supplier data, so confirm them before buying if a particular rating matters. XRS tips fit XRS rods only.
Both rods split into two equal sections. The descriptions give 169 cm for the 3.3 m version and 179 cm for the 3.5 m version. The primary supplier's specifications instead give 171 cm for the 3.3 m version, so confirm its packed length if space is tight. Check your transport space against the chosen version.

The Matrix Ethos XRS Light Feeder rods use a soft, slim carbon-fibre blank for light feeder fishing with small feeders at short to medium range. The forgiving blank suits playing silver fish such as skimmers, hybrids and roach.
The 3.3 m version has a 30 g casting weight, 15 guides and a listed rod weight of 166 g. The 3.5 m version offers a 35 g casting weight, 16 guides and a listed rod weight of 172 g. Choose the shorter version for the lower casting rating or the longer version when you need the extra length and 5 g higher rating. Both share the same short-to-medium-range purpose.
Lightweight XOG SG guides carry the line along the blank. Both rods have a durable rubber cork and EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) composite handle and a Black/Lime finish. The two-piece construction splits into equal sections for transport. The descriptions list transport lengths of 169 cm for the 3.3 m rod and 179 cm for the 3.5 m rod. The non-fallback supplier also lists 171 cm for the 3.3 m rod in its specifications, so confirm that length before choosing a close-fitting rod bag.
Both rods come with two carbon tips with a 2.2 mm fitting diameter. The 3.3 m version includes 0.5 oz and 1.0 oz tips. The supplier lists conflicting tip ratings for the 3.5 m version, so confirm the supplied ratings before choosing it for a specific tip requirement. XRS tips are compatible only with XRS rods.
Carbon fibres conduct electricity. Do not use these rods during thunderstorms or near high-voltage power lines because of the risk of fatal electric shock.
