INFINITYXROSS

INFINITYXROSS is an advanced drive gear technology that uses wider gear teeth. The increased surface area distributes pressure more evenly across the full face of the teeth as they meet during rotation. Compared to similar sized gears, INFINITYXROSS increases durability by 100% without affecting smoothness.

BENEFIT

INFINITYXROSS delivers more durability, especially when under extreme pressure, resulting in the increased lifespan of the reel. This enables the reel to work to its maximum ‘original’ performance for longer without degradation.

NEW

INFINITYLOOP

INFINITYLOOP is an ultra slow line oscillation designed for smaller spinning reels. The spool moves up and down very slowly as the rotor wraps line onto it, allowing the line to spool in an almost parallel configuration. This creates a smooth profile that improves line management when casting and also when playing fish.

BENEFIT

INFINITYLOOP oscillation reduces the speed the line travels up and down the spool on the cast. This results in less friction and vibration as line leaves the spool and reduces drag on the lure, which improves casting distance and accuracy. When playing fish, the line is released from the turning spool more smoothly, increasing control.

NEW

ANTI-TWIST FIN

ANTI-TWIST FIN is an elastic and removable* fin placed on the rotor next to the line roller. It is designed to create the perfect tension between the line and the spool and improve line management efficiency, especially when using supple, thin diameter braid and mono.

* Removing the fin is only necessary with lines over 0.47mm or with very large knots.

BENEFIT

ANTI-TWIST FIN is especially advantageous for anglers fishing supple, ultra thin braid and mono. If the line between the reel and the lure/lead goes slack when stopping a retrieve, or immediately after casting, the ANTI-TWIST FIN prevents the line from falling away from the line roller and creating additional slack.

NEW

DURACROSS DRAG

DURACROSS DRAG is an advanced drag washer construction that combines the best characteristics and feel of felt washers, including initial hooking power, with the increased durability of cross-carbon washers.

BENEFIT

DURACROSS DRAG is a fantastic combination of feel and durability. It provides enough initial power (spike) to set hooks effectively, with enhanced smoothness and durability for a better fish-playing experience.
