In almost any sport that requires "gear", at the high end there's always innovation going on and at times steps forward in performance.
Also in almost any sport, you can give a guy with skills a base or low end model and watch him humble guys with expensive stuff.
Just the way it is.
Of course if you hand a guy with skills the best gear you naturally tend to see the very best possible performance in what ever that discipline may be.
I think the newest graphite is adding distance to most people's casting. I also think working on your casting skills with your current gear can potentially add more distance then a new rod could, and there will always be guys who can outcast everyone with just an Ugly Stick.
