Have you ever fought a good fish on a conv. rod and the rod tries to twist/torque to one side?It's because the guides are mounted on top and the line pressure tries to pull the rod to one side. Where as with a spinning rod, guides are on the bottom so the rod cannot twist on you. When u spiral/Acid wrap a rod, you are transfering torque to the botton of the rod, thus eliminating torquing the rod to one side. It's actually pretty cool fighting a fish on a spiral wrapped rod, you have a lot more power and control to turn a big fish. Plus it's something different.
