Interesting to note that AJH's contract with Xiom has been terminated and he is no longer using this blade

There's a lot of Xiom stuff that's already come out or is being released later this year: https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/xiom-new-collection-2024.32716/

Definitely

Okay I actually found the chart. It was a graphic in a youtube video. I'll post it in case it's useful to anyone else:

Yes, his measurements are great. I was looking all around that site yesterday and I couldn't find the chart though.

I came across a chart a while back that had handle and head size measurements for a lot of popular/common blades. It had the handle measurements for both the widest part of the handle and the middle of the handle. It was some type of equipment review/lab site. Does anyone happen to have a link...

@Giangt Thanks, any chance you could get those same measurements on the pro version of the blade?

@Giangt one more question for you: How do you think the TMX material compares to Xiom's AXYLIUM material or any of the brands ALC type materials?

Any word on the tackiness levels of Omega 8 China or Omega 8 Hybrid?

It seems like they are not empowered to do so. Most players at that level are pushing the limits of serve legality and no one umpire wants to be the one to disrupt the status quo. WTT needs to buy and implement that Eagle Eye technology they tried out like ~5 years ago and let that system call...

I'm not even a Minions or Butterfly fan really, but these are honestly pretty cool designs.

@Giangt thanks. those measurement photos are perfect. I think this handle might fit my hand.

@Giangt measurements would be great. I'm seeing lots of conflicting statements about the size of this handle.

@Fedex78 can you talk about the handle shape of the regular TMXi FL? Can you compare it to Viscaria or any other popular blades?

Xiom needs to clean up their product line a little bit, address their lack of distribution to certain areas and hire someone who can actually translate to English, and they could be super popular in the west. I am very interested in the new Omega 8s and Vegas. The TMXi blade has been tempting me...
