I loved both the ZX25 and my VS250, but the ergonomics of the VS were better for me.

The ZB's spool/roller was too far back under my hand to easily use my pointer finger to manipulate the line onto/off of the roller.

With the VS I easily removed the line from the roller and then returned to the roller after casting with my pointer. Very intuitive and easy.

x2.

I like the reel stem to be in between my pinky and ring finger rather than my middle and ring which I think is the most popular. If I held it that way I don't think it woudl be an issue.

Have to say I love the drag on the ZB.
