Rick, I haven't laughed that hard in long time! I was thinking about the same thing.

Will be on sale in June(reel that is)
The spool is quoted as being tuned for 'full contact'(full contact shallow spool)
Seems to be the SLP works 1010 spool.This spool was tuned for close contact casting with the emphasis on accuracy.
If you enjoy the 1016/1012 spools, you will love the 1010.

Thanks for the info.

'13 metanium, t3 SV, now this... To many things on the menu.

Does the 1010 have the air brake inductor setup like T3 air and the SV?

On that note, for casting performance alone, are the only differences between all T3 variants just the spool?

No air spool inductor on the 1010.
Casting performance differences are spool determined.

So...if I like the look of a T3 the most, I can have the casting performances of t3 SV, t3 air etc etc by simply changing spools?
I.e the mag3D on the palm side is all the same? That's way cool.
Too bad the T3 air is FW only.
If this is so I'd love a F68 and buy a whole range of spools.

What's anyone's guess at whether the F68 is SW safe?
