Look on YouTube for vids with Kevin Southey from England and on total sea fishing site I think there is a tutorial on the back cast. Rod wise It seems back casters favor a stiff through action rod I know Kevin used Zziplex M427s and also a mega stiff old Zziplex quatra sport, hope this helps.

I think kevin's rods are Quattra Sport "Tri-Core" these are alot stiffer than the Quattra sport.. But most stiffer actioned rods would do the job fine.... Check out Duane Lockwood in this vid,, one of the best backcasts Ive seen in a while, he recently he did 258m at Steyning
