Flexible RECOIL Fly Rod Guides - An Act of God?

-This looks like the greatest thing since sliced bread.

-Isn't this the same stuff as the flexible eyeglass frames.

-You can smack'em, crush'em and they bounce back?

-No more cracked and failing epoxy, cause the guide is more flexible
than the rod?

-I found some minor info in one of the rodbuilders forums, googled
to the site...

---- Any opinions on these guides, cause $2.00 each ain't toooooo
bad... ???? ----------------------

"RECOIL guides are made from an extremely hard but flexible "Shape Memory"
alloy, which does not require plating, cannot corrode in any environment,
and returns to its original shape after repeated deformations."
