The AX SEMEWAZA KYOUGI MULTI BOUHATEI SE (AX攻技競技マルチ防波堤SE) is a competition-specification versatile breakwater pole rod from Prox, made for shore anglers who fish from harbor walls, piers, and jetties using float rigs, sabiki rigs, or probing techniques. Japanese: 「攻技」(semewaza) translates as "aggressive technique" or "attacking technique"; 「競技」(kyougi) means "competition"; 「防波堤」(bouhatei) means "breakwater" or "seawall." The target angler uses this type of rod for ajing (horse mackerel) float fishing, mebaru (rockfish) float presentations, and tetrapod-gap probing, disciplines where entry-level rods fall short in sensitivity or tip action.

The blank draws on 24+30-ton carbon construction and features a white-painted tubular tip in a 7:3 (tip-flex) action ratio. The white tip aids bite detection in low-light harbor conditions. A roller top is fitted, unusual for a pole-style rod, which reduces line wear during repeated line retrieval. The overall build sits within Prox's AX-tier "攻技競技" (competition semewaza) range, above the CX and FX mid-grade entries. The lineup in this SE variant is anchored by the single ASKBBS40H at 13'1" (4.0 m), designated "H" (ultra-hard/超硬).

The broader AX競技万能防波堤 family spans at least 400 cm through 700 cm in length; the SE suffix and ASKBBS model code indicate the multi-purpose SE update to that range. Single SKU here suggests this length fills the most common breakwater reach requirement. No reel seat, pole (nobe-zao) style, line attached directly.

4.0 m ultra-hard (超硬) designation indicates a stiff blank intended to lift fish quickly from structure-heavy bouhatei terrain. The 7:3 action and white tubular tip remain sensitive enough for detecting light bites from aji and mebaru while the H backbone controls larger fish. The roller top is fitted as standard, protecting the line during repeated hand-over-hand retrieval typical of pole fishing.
