Yes, I meant to write about "Boost" is Fool proof. And SS air having same kind of effect.. I have tested quite shortly SV Boost braked Zillion. My impression was that it is quite "Fool Proof". Can throw with bad technic, without backlashes. I was having a feeling that relaxed throw was taking my 28g...

I understand ss air brake similar to jvelth74.
That brake is Daiwa's "Fool Proof brake".

What might be the point?

From Daiwa illustry I can see:
Spool axle is shorten than before, it is good.
Inductor cup is not moving so far than before, it is good.
Palming plate is 1,4mm nearer to rod's center point, is it good?

It is not BFS unless you are casting a chicken feather

BFS gear are great. Every fisherman should have at least one set.
It does not matter, what or how light lures you want to throw with it.

It is very simple, you have options:
- learn retrieving with left
- learn throwing with left

I have feeling that original brake cup (inductor) is not good. It makes too big difference to brake power at beginning vs end of cast.
I like to say, my reel works much better after changed Ray's studio Brake cup.

Only quick comment from me. I think BFS is fishing by casting a light lures, with equipment that works well for that. I don't understand why talking about Drop shotting.. The BFS movement began with the desire to fish finesse applications on casting gear. In bass fishing terms, this includes many v...

You can see it used for pike by a guy who doesn't know how to palm a fishing reel. https://youtu.be/WW7mo3lfv0k What you mean..how do you know, that man don't know how to palm a reel? Maybe he just don't find any advantages, in pike fishing.. Personally, palming grip, I have not found enough advant...

I might have ceramic bearings in my aftermarket shallow spool for tatula 100hsl. I believe that tatula spool is lighter than BK2 spool.

...and my Black knight II is throwing light lures longer than any other reel that I have...

This BFS in FUN :-D In many ways...but I LOVE it. Brakes: I like Shimano's FTB. I have Scorpion BFS. I like, very good reel. It do what it should do. I have a couple Daiwa's. I am not so pleased about moving induktor. Especially SV spool AIR-induktor ON/OFF-movement. Mag-Z is great. 3D gives allread...

One thing is superclear, palming grip is not good for throwing. Distance nor accuracy.

I don't know what I miss, when I fish a pike, by normal grip from rod.
