The new milestone among spinning reels!

The future of spinning reels from Daiwa is Airdrive Design. By reducing the weight of the rotor, spool, and bail assembly, a lighter rotation is achieved. This effortless rotation lets the angler feel the true joy of unique functionality.

This new chapter begins with 22 Exist – the reel for the future. The 22 Exist has been created to be the new benchmark. Airdrive Design is the pinnacle that all will follow.

To begin with the development of Airdrive Design, Daiwa first separated the spinning reel into two key components. The first was the “rear unit,” consisting of the body and important internal components like the drive wheel. By introducing MQ technology along with the robust Digigear, which now becomes the standard for Daiwa's spinning reels, it has given the rear unit high strength and durability.

After developing the rear unit, Daiwa set out to redevelop the key components of the so-called “front unit.” By redeveloping the rotor, spool, and bail assembly, Daiwa has managed to reduce the weight of the front unit. Airdrive Design is the result of this new way of thinking. Daiwa has developed an innovative masterpiece that allows the angler total control: reduced weight, smooth rotation, and high responsiveness. All these combined features unite to form Airdrive Design.

Airdrive Design can be divided into 4 key technologies.

The new Airdrive Rotor and the newly developed Airdrive Bail together reduce the weight at the top end of the reel. Reduced weight ensures a smooth and even rotation with faster startup and less inertia. Unnecessary weight was reduced to develop the new Airdrive Spool, which perfectly matches the Airdrive Rotor & Airdrive Bail to complete the redesigned front unit.

Unlike its own internal reel structure, Daiwa has developed a low-contact structure between the main shaft and the pinion called Airdrive Shaft. By applying this method, friction is reduced and smoothness is improved. By combining these new technologies, the reel is extremely light and allows the angler to experience the flowing rotation with less inertia and better control over the line and rod action.
