Xiom Control All+ and Xiom Orlando
« on: November 20, 2007, 06:19:06 PM »
Here is a short video of the capabilities of the Xiom Control All+ & Xiom Orlando, in away from the table chopping.

Enjoy. :D

BTW it was 38 degree's in Melbourne yesterday, and I was buggered. I didn't even have the energy to change into my playing clothes.

Which one did he prefer playing with? Seemed like the control was more consistent...or was that me just being subjective because I ordered this blade?  :D

Without a doubt, he plays better with the Orlando, But what he prefer's is another story.

His Backhand rubber is mostly BTY Feint Long 2. (in thin sponge versions or ox) he use this one because its very predictable to him.

On his Forehand he could use anything (except Chinese rubbers). I thing he's starting to like the feel of the speedglue incorperated Tensors. He's actually getting used to the extra bouncyness they posses. It took me a while, but its all good now.
This forum wouldn't be long enough to list all the rubbers and blades he has tested.

In that video, the pimple rubber was Butterfly Feint Long 2. OX.

Supachop, you got some pretty good chops.  I got a sheet of FL2 1.3 that I use once in awhile for training purposes.  At one time I was thinking of converting to be a chopper, but I didn't have the patience and I like looping with my BH too much.
