Beautiful aparatus Victor! 👌🏼

Happy Easter! 🙏🏻

SF: Super Finesse...you nailed it Victor small 500 body with short large diameter spool

Great review, thanks

Thanks for clearing up the difference between SF and LT.  Without your reviews i don't think any of us would have a hope of working out what the hell Daiwa are up to with their model naming.  Naming a 500 size reel as a 1000 is a very dodgy way to try to compete with your competition and bad for consumers ordering online sight unseen.  I wonder how many fisherman will receive reels much smaller than they want with this Daiwa practice.

Looking forward for the 2024 Presso Ltd review 😅, thanks for your highlights here. Enjoy your Easter weekend.

it would be interesting to see the ST 2500S-XH-QD model, and how the quick-drag system works

So in conclusion Victor, the « SF » means Smaller Frame …
Great video👍🏻

Please make a video about how to find carp in lakes

In South East Asia we call it a 800 reel. Here 500 and 800 would have the same body size (depending on brands), but 800 would have a taller/bigger spool. Anyway its just a number, they call it what they want to call it.

The ultimate level of confusion now :) I guess it is same with Exist Finesse Custom of the previous model

Hi Victor have you looked at the specification table? The  model SF 2000SS-P also weighs 130 grams. You took the wrong reel for comparison...
Btw...great channel...grettings from Croatia...

After seeing your Video, i bought in the end the ST SF 1000S-P , and I think i made the best decision because i have a pair of super ultralight rods. Although the color scheme is not for everyone, and not quite for the black Japanese rods, when i was putting on the 24 Soare Limited S58UL-S, i had a shock. It looks so beautiful,and it is so balanced,that I don’t want to use anything else. I have the Stella 1000sspg,Vanquish 1000sspg, and none of them fits so perfectly, in terms of looks and weight. I am so used to this Airty that the 2000 size feels huge now. It was worth every penny. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, to make the correct choice, because you can’t find in shops everywhere something like these finesse reels. Viktor, you’re the best 🎉

Thanks for sending in your reel. You’ll have to let us know how it handles a season after you fish it. Victor are the reel feet’s the same size between the two sizes? Great reels! Happy Easter and hopefully your allergies will clear soon!

I think the important spec is how much 10lb braid it can hold.  Just how much line it can hold in general.  This gives you an idea of how much line the reel can hold.  When you look different diawa sizes across their models their is no standard.  A size 2500 can hold 150yd of 10# and another model size 3000 will hold 150yd of 10#.

Thanks for the review!
Yes, Airity has a smaller body, but Vanquish has got a smaller rotor. Does SF get a smaller rotor than normal LT2000? It doesn't seem so. And let's not forget, Daiwa is a full metal body reel. For me personally, it's important. I'm willing to sacrifice a few grams for this.

Airity ST doesn't have mag sealed bearings correct?

I think the knob are different

Brother Viktor- more like a 750. Daiwa makes a 750 model. The Daiwa QZ 750.

Viktor nice review as always ! But what you think about the downgrade from magnesium body to Ci4 body if the new Vanquish? Am I right or maybe mistaken ? Thx indeed

Hey man, thanks for your videos!
I was wondering if you could make a video in gear ratios and inches/cm per turn?
All the videos i find are bassanglers who all say the same stuff.. slow for crank and fast for topwater and jigs. I fish mostly for perch and im wondering if the same aplies to me?
