About this item
- Japan-market Daiwa spinning reel, 2023 generation of the Airity ST line — sold in Japan as 23AIRITY ST.
- 6 sizes from SF1000S-P to LT2500S-XH-QD, 130–150 g (4.6–5.3 oz); gear ratios 4.6 to 6.2 (P, H, XH).
- Daiwa lists these technologies for this generation: AIRDRIVE rotor, bail, spool and shaft; AIRDRIVE DESIGN; MONOCOQUE BODY; TOUGH DIGIGEAR; ATD TYPE-L drag; LC-ABS spool; QUICK DRAG.
- In plain words: AIRDRIVE DESIGN — Daiwa's design concept for a lighter, more responsive spinning reel; made up of the AIRDRIVE rotor, bail, spool and shaft. MONOCOQUE BODY — one-piece body with a plate screwed directly into it instead of a screwed-on body cover, for stiffer gear support and better sealing. TOUGH DIGIGEAR — Daiwa's machine-cut drive gear built for strength and smooth rotation.
- Daiwa's size guide for LT reels suggests — 1000: horse mackerel, rockfish, trout; 2000: trout, horse mackerel, rockfish; 2500: bass, squid (eging), trout.
- Specs are Daiwa's published figures; conversions to imperial are ours.
