Core Technologies
-
SVS Infinity Braking System: Allows for easy, on-the-water adjustments to braking tension with an external dial, which helps manage different lure sizes and casting conditions.
-
HAGANE Body: A lightweight yet rigid aluminum frame that prevents reel flex and keeps internal components properly aligned, improving efficiency and durability.
-
SilentTune Technology: Dampens bearing vibration during high-speed rotation, resulting in a smoother, quieter cast.
-
S3D Spool Technology: Contributes to reduced spool vibration, leading to a smoother and more balanced feel when casting and retrieving.
-
Super Free Spool: This feature ensures that the pinion gear and spool shaft are perfectly aligned when casting. It eliminates friction that can limit casting distance and accuracy.
Fishing Applications
- Good for: Cranking deep-diving crankbaits, slow-rolling large spinnerbaits, and retrieving large swimbaits.
- Why: The slower gear ratio provides more torque, making it easier to retrieve baits with heavy resistance.
