Minnesota Pro Andy Young tells you how the Turboset Power Booster really helps when fishing Deep W**ds.
Attach it , now go Catch it!
With the Turboset Power Booster it is easy.
The Enormous Leverage gives you a definite advantage in many ways.

Turboset Power Boosters are an ergonomic forearm support extension for a fishing rod.
This device is designed to ease wrist strain and reduce fatigue by distributing the weight and torque of a fishing pole along the angler's forearm. It is highly beneficial for casting heavy setups, fighting large fish, or assisting anglers who have limited grip strength or physical ailments.
Key Features
• Forearm Cradle: The cradle rests comfortably underneath or alongside the forearm to absorb the added leverage.
• Rod Mount: The adjustable collar clamps securely onto the blank or handle of standard fishing poles.
• Mechanical Advantage: It shifts the fulcrum point away from the wrist alone, making the rod feel significantly lighter during long days on the water.

The Turboset Power Booster is a specialized ergonomic attachment designed to provide a mechanical advantage on long-handled gear, such as a landing net.
When attached to a fish landing net pole, it offers several major benefits:
• Enormous Mechanical Leverage: The green cradle rests securely against your forearm, functioning as a lever. This eliminates the need to rely strictly on wrist and hand strength to keep a long net balanced.
• Strain Reduction: It actively reduces physical fatigue and stress on the wrists, arms, and shoulders when reaching far out or lifting heavy fish from the water.
• Enhanced One-Handed Control: By bracing the handle against the forearm, it stabilizes the net. This makes it much easier to guide and maneuver the net accurately with just one hand while your other hand controls the fishing rod.

Hey Homeowner what is that attached to your Tree Pruner?
Homeowners are doing more and more work on their homes by themselves. This type of work is strenuous and can hurt by the end of the day.
Our product solves this issue.

Why Strain? Leverage Booster for Long Poles
How It Works in This Setup
• Forearm Support: The curved green plastic piece acts as an ergonomic cradle for the operator's forearm.
• Leverage Generation: When pushing or pulling a long, top-heavy tool like a pole saw or tree pruner, the cradle allows the operator to leverage their entire forearm and body weight to stabilize the pole, rather than relying solely on wrist strength.
• Fatigue Reduction: By redistributing the downward pressure and torque generated by the long pole, it significantly reduces wrist fatigue and strain during extended overhead work.
It is clamped onto the fiberglass pole using its adjustable green mounting bracket, positioning it directly behind the user's lower hand placement.

Note: Check the diameter of your pole or handle of the tool (battery operated) before ordering, so you receive the model best for you.
