About Xiom allround S...

[Amir sharoni]

Hello, i am using the Yasaka sweden classic and the Xiom allround s blades, the difference between them is big, the Yasaka feela much more powerfull although consider to be an ALL blade, and the xiom is considerd to be ALL+ blade.
the rubbers on the Yasaka are FH yasaka rakza 7 soft and BH Rasanter R42, on the Xiom blade FH donic bluefire M2 and BH donic bluefire M3, so the rubbers on both blades are more or less similiar.... why is the Xiom blade feels much less powerfull than the Yasaka?

Weight, and different types of wood -> different hardness/stiffness are most likely at place.

Also, ALL isn't anything specified so one brand might call it ALL while the other would call it OFF-.
It really depends on their own lineups and evaluation.

For me Xioms Allround S fits ALL+ quite well, atleast the one I played with was very comfortable to play with and wasn't so slow that you couldn't score. For me an easy recommendation for every beginner.

Thanks for the answer. both blade weight allmost the same 84-82 grams. and both were orderd from the the same site (tabletennis11) the first ranked "ALL" and second ranked "ALL+", its kind of confusing. i orderd the "ALL+" beacouse needed a little bit faster blade, and ended up getting a slower one. how can someone choose without trying it? maybe only by asking some who knows both blades or trying them by him self..... looks like the title for fast and slow blade is not allways what is suppose to be,

Yes that is true, ideally you would have to test them beforehand. If not possible you would have to ask someone.
Those ALL, OFF can kinda work if you just compare from the same brand.
And even then you might feel it differently... TT Equipment is horrible and easy to get lost in.
