Beautiful high rigidity standard. NEW Despina equipped with HAGANE gear and HAGANE body technologies essential for high rigidity. A high-rigidity lever brake reel that uses cold forging technology to wrap a light and strong HAGANE gear made of super duralumin in a HAGANE body made of lightweight and highly rigid aluminum material. The line roller is equipped with Silent Drive to achieve stress-free winding comfort and X-Protect to increase waterproofness. The rotor is equipped with a magnum light rotor. Introducing the ``Beautiful High Rigidity Standard'' model, which has a lighter rotor that suppresses inertia and has the same reversing performance as the flagship. High rigidity and durability with HAGANE body and HAGANE gear. On a rocky shore, you never know when fish with strong power, including large long-tailed fish, will come. Since lever brake reels, which are the main battleground for this stage, are expected to be subjected to high loads during reeling, higher rigidity is required from the entire body, including the reel foot. The HAGANE body used in the BB-X Despina is a sturdy aluminum body that suppresses concerns about impact and power loss due to deflection and twisting in harsh environments. Furthermore, it is equipped with a hard and tenacious HAGANE gear formed by precision cold forging, achieving a reel gear strength that is one class higher. A highly rigid body and highly durable gear that utilizes the gear ratios of HG and type-G will support your battles on rough rocks. X Protect protects rotation and improves waterproof performance. A high level of waterproof performance is essential for a reel for rock fishing, which is sometimes exposed to splashes from waves. BB-X Despina has newly adopted X protection for the line roller part. By combining special water-repellent grease and a labyrinth structure that prevents water from entering, it achieves high waterproof performance without compromising the lightness of rotation. Choose your favorite style with 3 gear ratios. The low gear TYPE-G allows you to gradually shorten the distance even from the limit state where even the slightest slack in pumping is not allowed. The winding power is strong, and the winding amount is 89cm per rotation, making it the most versatile HG. The XG not only makes retrieval and landing faster, but also allows you to get closer to the fish with less rotation of the handle. You can choose the model that suits your style from three gear ratios. Magnum light rotor that provides excellent reversing performance. Reduces rotational inertia and strengthens rotor rigidity. One of the important performances of a lever brake reel is the speed at which it starts when rotating in reverse. Despina pursues light rotation and uses a magnum light rotor with reduced rotational inertia. This excellent rotor performance provides a sense of speed that allows anglers to instantly shift from an unfavorable position to an advantageous position. It follows the angler with a sharp response even when turning forward to catch fish. Trouble-free and beautiful one-piece veil. A one-piece veil that is molded in one piece and has no seams. Not only does it have a beautiful appearance, but it also suppresses line troubles that occur around the bale and has excellent trouble-free performance.
