  1. Xiom Vega series

    Yes, Asia has softer topsheet than X and Pro, and a bit bouncy than both X and Pro.
  2. Spinlord Keiler 2

    I found Keiler too much like a SP in 2mm sponge, but i liked it more on faster woods in 1.2mm. I think it's too spinny and sponge too soft, but i planned to retry it at the end of season. Much better Orkan II for disruption which i actually use, in the past i used Waran I 2mm, imo much better...
