SpeedMaster Surf XT
An ultra-rigid CI4+ Body reduces flex and provides a lightweight yet solid foundation for better meshing of the cold-forged HAGANE Gear and long-lasting smoothness and durability. The SpeedMaster Surf XTD incorporates RigidCast technology to withstand the impact of extreme casting force by minimizing spool wobble and the deflection of the main shaft and body during the initial moments, increasing casting distance and accuracy. To create a quieter, smoother reeling experience, Shimano incorporated SilentDrive technology into the SpeedMaster Surf XTD, reducing unnecessary noise and vibration. Cast further and more accurately with the new SpeedMaster Surf XTD 14000.

The casting feel is much more precise than previous models. The gear runs smoothly and the spool doesn’t wobble during initial casts. I’ve been using it for a few weeks and it’s held up well under regular use.
Lily Skinner –
The quiet operation is a big improvement. I can now reel without the usual noise and vibration. The rigidity of the body makes a noticeable difference in accuracy when casting.

Solid build quality and smooth performance. The casting distance has increased slightly, and the gear stays engaged well. A bit heavier than expected, but worth it for the precision.
Megan Martin –
I’ve tried several reels and this one stands out for its stability and quiet operation. The HAGANE gear feels durable and the reeling is smooth even under pressure.
