| Okuma V System Spinning
The Okuma V System spinning reels leave absolutely no doubt in my mind that Okuma has ascended to the top of the spinning reel world. The Okuma V System spinning reels are soooooo smooth, soooooo perfect it is mind boggling. The Shimano Stella needs to step aside, there is a new sheriff in town! From the minute I first felt an Okuma V System spinning reel, I just could not believe it. How could Okuma make such a remarkably smooth, feature packed reel for that price? I still don't know and who am I to question it… all I know is it is here and it is amazing. If you are looking to purchase the smoothest spinning reel you have ever felt, the Okuma V System spinning reel is the one for you… you have my word on it! IT's not just smooth, they have a fantastic dual drag system (waterproof of course), a rigid aluminum body, side plates, crank and spool (no flexing), corrosion proof bearings, they cast like a missile and to top it all off, they come with a 5 year warranty! Are you kidding me? You can't beat them!!! I just can't say enough about them… they are the perfect spinning reel. If they are a little out of your price range, check out the Okuma Salina… a reel that has also become near and dear to my heart. This is what Okuma says about them:
The marquee spinning reel from the company that is setting
the standard for spinning technology. The culmination of a multinational
development project, the VSystem respresents the ultimate spinning
technology available. The VSystem is built on the foundation of
our patented EOS elliptical oscillation drive gears. This revolutionary
oscillation system offers superior line lay while maintaining unmatched
stability. Due to the elliptical shape of the gears, they are constantly
engaged during the two stroke oscillation. The VSystem also features
the new Dual Drag Force system, DFD. In addition to the traditional
multi-disk system it has a large drag system mounted beneath the
spool, which by equalizing the drag force stabilizes and dissipates
heat, promising a smooth drag under extreme tensions. |
