Dock skipping rod

I have been looking to build a dock skipping rod (spinning), and was wondering about using the xs661 or at least the blank that is used to construct that model. I have never actually used this rod so I am wondering if this rod may be a little to light. The xps 662 may be a better way to go, but the mod fast rating might be a little slow for what Im after. Any thoughts would be welcome.

Hello Jon

The XS 661 would actually work out better than the XPS 662 the 661 is a more powerful rod. But not too much it would work out great for you.

Would either of the Don Iovino spinning rods make a good skipping rod? The shorter lenth would be benificial for skipping.
