Steez has a long history as a part of Daiwa, a premium flagship brand for bass fishing equipment. Debuting Ultimate Casting Design, bringing the perfect cast into reality. To realise the ultimate casting design which Daiwa has been pursuing for many years, it was necessary to align four key elements, and take each of those to the limit.
Just perfecting one part was not enough, it took all parts acting together to bring Ultimate Casting Design to life. The four pillars of Ultimate Casting Design are Daiwa’s famous Magforce + Variable Inductor, TWS T-Wing System, Zero Adjust & G1 Duralumin spool. When all four of these are harmonized, the imagination of perfect casting performance is realised.
Daiwa’s advancements of a completely non-contact electromagnetic braking system have been under development since the introduction of Magforce braking over 20 years ago. By creating a completely non-contact structure it eliminates all friction and therefore is not easily affected by outside factors such as moisture or humidity. The adaptation of a two-stage variable inductor which is controlled by the spool’s rotation means performance for lightweight lures, versatility or super long casting can be achieved.
Daiwa’s Zero Adjuster has been present for many years. By mastering the main brake (Magforce) Daiwa bait reels now do not need the second stage mechanical brake which applies force to the spool shaft. Now the angler can respond to any setting simply by adjusting the mag dial. Ultimate Casting Design has eliminated this ability, which simplifies setup & use and eliminates possibility for accidental adjustment.
A third generation TWS has been installed, which has seen the shape be adjusted to further increase line flow. As bait reels become more compact and spool diameters decrease the rotational speed of the spool increases, further enhancing the performance benefits of TWS. A 4.9% casting distance increase is achieved when performing test casts against second generation TWS.
A new G1 Duralumin spool is regarded as the highest-grade aluminium alloy materials, two times stronger than magnesium and 1.3 times as strong as Super Duralumin. This allows Daiwa to create spools which are thin & light, whilst retaining strength and durability to handle many different line types and size.
Features
- Ultimate Casting Design - features four key elements (Ultimate Casting Brake, Ultimate Casting Line Guide, Ultimate Casting Zero Adjust and Ultimate Casting Spool), each developed for ultimate performance.
- HYPERDRIVE Design consists of four of the key pillars. Hyper Armed Housing, Hyper Tough Clutch, Hyper Double Support & HYPERDRIVE Digigear.
- HYPERDRIVE Digigear is the next evolution of baitcast gear design, taking Daiwa's Digigear concept delivering a smoother and stronger reeling sensation with a significant 60% improvement to gear durability.
- SV BOOST is a brand-new two-stage SV concept design which significantly increases casting distance in the latter part of the casting sequence. The two-stage SV BOOST design delivers the precise amount of breaking resistance at each stage of the cast, allowing the angler to perfectly account for varying scenarios when on the water.
