MAGSEALED BALL BEARING

The revolution in waterproofing and durability technology that began with the body and line roller has now been extended to the ball bearing, a small component that has a major impact on the rotation of the reel. By using a magnetic liquid wall to prevent water and foreign matter from entering the ball bearing, the original light and smooth performance of the ball bearing is maintained, and rust, salt contamination, and abnormal noise are greatly eliminated without the help of gaskets or other means. Waterproofing and durability are dramatically improved, and the initial performance can be maintained for a long period of time.

ATD

The biggest issue with many drag systems is that they are not smooth at the beginning of the drag.
ATD is fine tuned to react more quickly, the instant line release is required. This smoother start up eliminates the ‘snatch’ that previously occurred when tension inertia was overcome.

ATD also implements structural changes to the spool metal of the reel that provides greater support of the spool across the entire length of the main shaft. This additional support reduces spool twist under load, promotes more even pressure on the drag washers and ultimately reduces "pulsing" of the drag when fighting the fish.
