docirv, I have a few Shimano Stradics myself, and they are my favorite spinning reels. I fish heavy for spinning reels line a lot, simply because some of the styles I fish with these reels will yield a really large bass sometimes, and I don't want to be trying to land a really big boy with 8 or even 10 lb flouro/mono/copolymer...so I fish with 12 and even 14 on some of these rigs, which makes me a little more prone to 'twist' issues. Thus my curiousity about the wave spins. I did look at the US reels and their wider spool seems to have some merit as well, in both cases I am genuinely curious as to how BIG a difference their really is between something like one of my Stradics, and a US Reel or a Wavespin....I really think that if the Wavespin was THAT big of a difference the majors would step up and pay a license fee to produce it...in the rifle world everyone dissed them, but in the end all the majors make (and pay a license fee to do so) the WSM line of cartridges (a hybrid type rifle cartridge) I also think if they were that significant of an improvement, you would see the KVD's of the world using them...
