I saw the roller guides for sprial wrapped rods on thier site also and I am looking forward to seeing a set.I*ve seen the sprial wrap done on boat rods (stand-up 50/130) but it was with Fuji Usg and the hardaloy equivalent.I did an IGFA 80 last fall with the sic RSG guides set up regular to see how the guides are compared to rollers on the line.I do wonder what the stress on the sprial wrap will do to the actual wrap and finish with a real big fish on.I did notice a sprial wrap with Rsg guides in rod crafters and it looks like they set the transition guides backwards for this part.Must be for line clearence.
