Quantum EXO Bait Casting Reels “Metal Where it Matters”. That’s the thinking behind our exoskeletal hybrid construction. It combines a special, ultra-rigid aluminum alloy in load bearing areas with a lightweight composite that reduces weight in non-critical locations by 50%. This allows us to build the lightest possible frame with absolutely no sacrifice in strength. In fact, it’s 38% stronger than magnesium and 6 times stronger than a graphite composite frame.
Choose from three different retrieve speeds from the super-fast 7.3:1 "Burner" model to the 5.3:1 power cranking model to match any fishing condition. All weight less then 6 ounces!

Daiwa's T-Wing System solves an age old problem with baitcasting reel levelwind systems.
The "T" aperture allows line to flow freely through the wide top section on outcast, reducing the normally sharp angles and friction that slow line flowing through a narrow aperture when exiting the reel.
For retrieve, line drops into the narrow, lower channel of the T wing for even distribution across the spool width.

U.S. Reel SuperCaster 1000 Pro Baitcasting Reel Introducing a new casting reel that casts farther than other reels, casts and pitches lighter lures ... and does it with fewer backlashes!
The Angled Bar Levelwind (ABLe™) (Patent Pending) The heart of the system levels the line on the spool by a rotating angled bar that creates a see-saw effect to guide the line instead of an eyelet. The rolling motion of the bar levels the line but – during the critical casting phase – does not restrict the line like a typical levelwind eyelet.
The Angled Bar Levelwind (ABLe™)
The Reverse Rotation Spool (Patent Pending) The SuperCaster spool rotates the “wrong” way – but it is actually the right way. Why? By itself it doesn’t have any unique benefits but as an integral component to the SuperCaster Casting System it works better in several ways. First, it operates best mechanically in conjunction with the ABLe™ Levelwind. When the line comes from below, it pulls the line over the levelwind bar so that line is consistently put back on the spool level and smooth. Secondly, spool control is easier with the spool turning into the thumb rather than moving away from the thumb. Thirdly, backlashes, although rare, come out easier.
Adjustable Levelwind Positions
Best of all, there is no learning curve… even a novice can fish this reel right out of the box! However, be aware. The SuperCaster reel casts much easier than any other baitcast reel you’ve thrown to achieve the same results. Without having to overcome the tension created by the line guide, line comes off easy so you don’t have to throw it as hard, unless you really want to throw it FAR!
The Adjustable Levelwind (Patent Pending) Amazingly, the height of the new levelwind system regulates casting control. When in the highest position, the ABLe™ Levelwind minimizes the need to thumb the reel during a cast and yet the reel casts farther than most reels because the reel is not limited by an eyelet. When in a lower position – look out because the reel will ‘cast a country mile’.
The Internal Drive Gear
Until now, the only main gear designed in a baitcast reel had the teeth on the outside of the gear and the pinion gear contacted it on the outside. To create the reverse rotation, the gear system was designed by moving the pinion gear to the inside of the main gear. The new design, which has never been used in a casting reel before, is a unique solution to provide the reverse rotation and delivers the benefit of the pinion gear maintaining contact with the main gear longer. This allows for a stronger gear system that will last longer and stand up to greater challenges.
Improved Drag
The SuperCaster 1000 offers a Twin Disk, higher heat sink drag system for more consistent drag start to finish. The SuperCaster ABLe™ Levelwind solves a long-standing drag problem – pulsing due to eyelet position. This problem is most noticeable when the eyelet it furthest to one side. As the line is being pulled off, sometimes the line is directly behind the eyelet and other times it is quite angled from the other side of the spool. It is easier for the line to slip when directly behind the eyelet than with the line is coming from the side. This causes the drag to pulse and possibly cause a fish to be lost.
