DAIWA BALLISTIC AIR LT
The Ballistic Air LT is engineered for anglers who demand maximum sensitivity and power in an ultra-lightweight spinning reel. Built around advanced material technologies and the AIRDRIVE design concept, it delivers precise control, smooth rotation, and long-term durability when fishing with light to medium tackle.
Lightweight Power with MQ Construction
At the core of the Ballistic Air is the ZAION® MQ® Monocoque body, allowing the use of an oversized drive gear for superior power transmission and increased gear durability. This construction is particularly effective when fishing lighter lures while still requiring solid power reserves during hard fights.
The torque-resistant ZAION® body securely houses the CNC-machined TOUGH DIGIGEAR®, ensuring consistent smoothness and reliable performance even under frequent load.
AIRDRIVE Concept for Sensitivity and Balance
The AIRDRIVE design shifts the reel’s center of gravity closer to the rod, improving balance and enhancing sensitivity. The ZAION V® AIRDRIVE ROTOR® reduces start-up inertia for precise lure control and immediate feedback. The lightweight AIRDRIVE ABS® longcast spool further minimizes front-end weight while its optimized spool lip reduces friction for increased casting distance.
