KR Stripper guide question.

Hello,
In relation to a rapid choke build, i am looking to build a rod with a size 20 stripper choked down to size 4 micro guides. however, i am persistent that i wrap this build a with a double foot stripper, so my question is can i use a LC-H size 20 surf guide as a stripper instead of a single foot KL-H? i noticed that the heights are really similar, and a KW isnt anywhere as high. Seems like it will work but im wondering if it will make a big difference since LC-H guide does not have the K series downward angle.

thank you in advance!

You can use the LC and switch to K if you want. Y's would give you a similar vertical ring angle for the rest of the reduction train and L runners would keep the look to the tip

Makes you wonder when or if they will bring out high frame KWs.

Are we looking at sooner? or later? My buddy asked at the Icast booth and the engineer said he was working on it. Slap a leg on the front of the klh and send me five please.
