Xiom Feel S7 and Xiom Zetro Quad

Spitfire · Nov 17, 2017

Does anyone have any reviews of these 2 blades - Xiom Feel S7 and Xiom Zetro Quad

I'm mainly a looper playing with Vega Pro Rubbers on both sides..Don't want anything Super quick (Stradivarius to Quick) , Current Blade is a STIGA Offensive Classic Carbon

Feel S7 is intended to be a better version of Solo /which I very often recomend as a best balanced allwood/.
How much better - don't no yet.
Zetro Quad is an absolutely different story. If compared to to Stradivarius it's little bit slower, has better control, much better feel, softer and has more flex.
If you want a step up from a carbon blade, Zetro Quad is a choice, not Solo or Feel S7.
My personal recomendation is any of the Vega blades, with Tour as the best.
I'm still not familiar with the new Feel ZX, but just looking at what they are ZX1 and ZX2 are very different, but under Vega family, and ZX3 is identical in structure with Vega Tour and may over performe it a little if it has better wood ply quality and/or improved ZLC materials.

Will xiom ZQ will play good with chinese rubber? I m thinking of buying one and pair with hurricane 3 on forehand and donic baracuda on backhand

Used and tested feel.s7. It feels harder and faster.than the solo. The solo has more flex.

It will play good. As it has a soft feeling and has a good flex, with H3 you may feel it as All+ Off-. Best results with harder tensors.

Is the s7 suited for a topspin looper ? Can the blade offer massive amounts of spin ?

Going to put vega pro on it , what rubbers did you use?

Does it offer dwell time for looping?

Is the feel sx any good ?

how is that compared to the s7?

Spitfire · Nov 22, 2017

XIOM ZQ is how much slower than the Stradivarius ?

yogi_bear · Nov 22, 2017

yes, the feel S7 despite being faster than the Xiom Solo can still be a good looping blade. Feel SX is heavy and powerful but it is kinda stiff. It has good feel for being a composite blade.

If you were to compare the S7 to a STIGA Blade in Terms of Speed/Control what would be the closest blade?

is the Zetro Quad Like a Carbonado ?

yogi_bear · Nov 23, 2017

The S7 feels harder than the clipper cr or regular clipper. It is faster by a small margin than both clippers but control is just the same.
The.zetro quad probably is nearest to a carbonado 190 but feels kinda different. Only used zetro a few times so not too sure.

Yogi, how’s S7 compared to fextra?

yogi_bear · Nov 23, 2017

Fextra is way faster.
