A normal multi strand winch wire, should not have any manufactured tendency to spin when unwound or in re-winding, if it did what would happen would be the total unwind of the manufactured wire, this would then snap or jam in operation, the hook should be fastened to a carrier that encompasses a thrust bearing at the point of joining the wire, the wire is for lifting, but the hook has to be able to rotate, if any spin is there or starts whilst under load that is due to conditions caused when the load either leaves the ground or the air flow from wherever causes movement to start, by affecting the load.
I have multi strand wires on my overhead cranes which can single lift up to 50000 kgs if any wire started to spin in lifting we would have the devil of a job controlling 50t lumps of machinery, so unless the rule book has been re-written winch wires dont spin in operation.
