The Daiwa 22 Exist is a culmination of Daiwa's craftsmanship, showcasing the functionality and beauty expected of a compact spinning reel. Its core technology, the AIRDRIVE DESIGN, is a next-generation spinning reel concept that assists anglers in their pursuit of precise lure control. The AIRDRIVE DESIGN is comprised of up to four technologies. The AIRDRIVE Rotor is its signature feature, delivering incredibly light and nimble rotation for enhanced sensitivity. The Monocoque Body provides an undeniable sense of rigidity, resisting flex and providing stable rotation, ensuring durability. Protected by this sturdy body, the Tough Digigear delivers virtually noiseless rotation with a special surface treatment to enhance gear hardness, ensuring complete reliability. Daiwa's proprietary waterproof and durable technology, MagSealed, is installed in the pinion and line roller, while MagSealed ball bearings on both ends of the drive gear provide advanced waterproofing (SF model only has this in the pinion). The drag retains the ATD's characteristic of continuously working smoothly in response to the fish's pull, while the ATD TYPE-L has been improved to further enhance initial response, allowing for confident fighting even when using light line. The Daiwa 22 Exist is designed to connect with anglers, offering premium performance that harmonises with any fishing field, whether shore or offshore, and is built for long-lasting, reliable use, paving the way for the future of lure fishing.
