Simply the best blade I’ve tried, a softer and more balanced version of Viscaria.

The rounded handle (Free Angle) is pleasant to hold, and the finishes are perfect. The design is modern, but the plates on the neck are the only negative aspect. The sound is nice, and the Sweet Spot is wide and consistent.

Far from being too fast, the transition to carbon is natural.

This is a very nice blade with fine craftsmanship by Xiom. Mine is 86g and paired with V>15 Extra on both sides. The construction is similar to Bty ALC blades. It features a medium-hard touch, great speed, and enormous spin. I think it is faster than TB ALC but offers a fine touch for topspin players. It is one of the best looping blades and is excellent for mid-distance play.
