Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
New Zillion Project t video up on YouTube. This one details the Booster system and Hyper Gear.

Interesting new rod appears early in video, it appears to have a silver locking nut kinda shaped like the ones on the Racing Design. Could this be a new Zillion rod?

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
Hopefully someone can post up some pictures of a size comparison. For now I've just been watching videos from Japan and it looks narrower and maybe a little shorter than the steez sv tw limited. Looks like it palms better than the steez in the videos I've seen as well.Hogsticker2 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 11:16 pmYes, I'm curious about the size and how it palms as well.

This video shows the reel being disassembled and at the end he holds the zillion sv tw 1000 and the steez limited and the zillion appears to be smaller and fits in his hand better. Of course I haven't held either one so I can't be certain.

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
Its feels and look like the steez sv tw to me. To me, i think its the previous steez platform but with their new hyperdrive and sv boost spool. I can tell that out of the box it can outcast my previous steez. For the price i would rather get this reel than the previous steez.Hogsticker2 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 11:16 pmYes, I'm curious about the size and how it palms as well.

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
I think you are correct about that being a Steez rod.

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
Is the drag clicker mean it clicks when line is pulled out of the reel or it clicks as your turn the drag star wheel?CFDoc wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 7:03 pmHow does it feel size wise to the Met?Jbc88 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 4:52 pm
Mine just came in today and it is made in japan
I did have the 20 metanium but sold it to get this one lol and i can say that you wont be disappointed with this new zillion. This new zillion is smoother and has more of a solid feel. I will be getting more of them with the lower and higher gear ratios. Also has a nice drag clicker
I have Mets too but may get rid of them if this thing is as compact as a SLP and fixes the issues I have with the Met.
Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
It clicks as the line is being pulled out like a spinning reel. Nice feature they put in.Bandersnatch wrote: ↑Fri Dec 25, 2020 11:50 amIs the drag clicker mean it clicks when line is pulled out of the reel or it clicks as your turn the drag star wheel?CFDoc wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 7:03 pmHow does it feel size wise to the Met?Jbc88 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 4:52 pm

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
The 20 metanium is a nice reel but i like the new zillion with their new feature and new frame more. Everyone has their own preference and since they are almost price the same, i rather go with the zillion unless you can afford both lolBandersnatch wrote: ↑Fri Dec 25, 2020 11:50 amIs the drag clicker mean it clicks when line is pulled out of the reel or it clicks as your turn the drag star wheel?CFDoc wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 7:03 pmHow does it feel size wise to the Met?Jbc88 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 24, 2020 4:52 pm

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
That dude is super excited. From the pictures below, the Zillion looks to be in between the Steez and Alphas size wise. I'm having a difficult time deciding which one I want.chrisg_sdcf wrote: ↑Fri Dec 25, 2020 7:09 amHopefully someone can post up some pictures of a size comparison.

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
Yeah, I think it looks like it's in between the size of those two reels. I really like the look of the steez limited but I'm worried about the paint. Someone said the paint didn't seem like it would hold up (in the steez thread) so that will keep me from buying it.Hogsticker2 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 25, 2020 9:02 pmThat dude is super excited.

I think I want the zillion but the alphas could probably get the job done for me. I'm wanting to throw 1/4 - 1/2. If the zillion is good with that weight I'll probably get one to try the new spool.
