No sir. They should "slope" upward toward the tip. The frame is a tangle-free design. This allows the line to slide over the frame in the event of a wind knot, etc. Re: Alconite Guides

Thank You, so the foot with the double brace always faces down towards the reel. Re: Alconite Guides

Yes, just like any of the other frame styles. Double leg closest to the butt, single leg closest to the tip. Re: Alconite Guides

John the weird angled guides are referred to by many here as "K" guides. Re: Alconite Guides

I suspect that the angle of the guide is similar to the letter K. Re: Alconite Guides
