Shimano Ultegra XR XTD

The Shimano Ultegra XR XTD is the ultimate long-range casting reel, sitting proudly at the top of Shimano’s renowned Ultegra Big Pit/Surfcasting reel family. This 14000-sized reel is an embodiment of cutting-edge technology, meticulously designed to enhance rod speed and ensure smooth performance under high winding loads. If you're looking to push the boundaries of your casting distance, the Ultegra XR XTD is your perfect companion.

The Ultegra XR XTD features a compact body crafted from Ci4+ composite material, making it insanely lightweight. This reduction in weight allows for faster rod speeds, which is crucial for achieving those long, powerful casts. The lightness of the reel not only enhances casting performance but also reduces fatigue during prolonged fishing sessions.

Featuring Rigid Cast technology which maximises rod speed during casting, ensuring that you can consistently achieve greater distances. The Super Slow 5 Oscillation provides exceptional line lay, reducing friction and allowing for smoother, longer casts. Designed with a Parallel Body which ensures that the spool and rod are perfectly aligned, reducing line friction and enhancing casting accuracy.

HAGANE gearing delivers unparalleled strength and durability, ensuring smooth operation even under heavy loads. The X-SHIP enhances gear durability and eliminates friction between the spool shaft and gear, resulting in smoother, more powerful cranking. Infinity drive also increases winding power, making it easier to reel in even the largest of catches. The Silent Drive technology helps reduce noise and vibration ensuring a smooth and quiet operation.

The Ultegra XR XTD is built to withstand the harshest conditions, thanks to Shimano’s X-Protect technology. This innovative feature provides superior water resistance, protecting the reel’s internal components and ensuring long-lasting performance in the most extreme conditions.

The Hi-Speed Drag feature allows for quick adjustments with minimal rotation of the drag knob, providing precise control over your drag settings during fish fights. This ensures that you can react quickly and efficiently to changing situations, giving you an edge in landing your catch.

With its understated colours, large spool, and sleek compact body, the Ultegra XR XTD not only performs exceptionally but also looks the part. The ergonomic design ensures that every aspect of the reel is optimised for both functionality and aesthetic appeal.

The Shimano Ultegra XR XTD is available in a 14000 size and comes in a dark grey coloured finish.
