Xiom Icecream AZX and AZX i | Unboxing and First Impressions

[Dan]

Hey guys!

This weeks unboxing video brings you the new XIOM Icecream blades. What is so unique with these blades is that they have two different layers of carbon on opposing sides, one being ALC and one being ZLC. In this video I unbox both blades and give an overview of my initial impressions. Stay tuned for the upcoming full review of these new blades. Let us know in the comments what you think of this new hybrid carbon concept!

Can’t wait for the AZXi. Maybe a solution for me backhand.

Lol intro with an actual ice cream. That was a good one Dan hahaha.

 

[bobpuls]

they are definitely not first ..... i build multiple blades with different compositions for each side ... and i know they have been blades like this before i made my first one . still nice if someone continues this way .
Attacking defenders are looking for such type of composition for example
And the composition is also wrong ... according the color of the inner layers... it is definitely not limba, it is too dark .

 

[yogi_bear]

Azxi is definitely limba, and azx is koto.

 

[bobpuls]

Yes but top layers only

 

[yogi_bear]

Azxi is limba-limba-alc/zlc. You have to take into co sideration that there 2 hybrid blades are patterned after 4 known blades.

 

[bobpuls]

elaborate please

 

[yogi_bear]

Azxi, inneforce alc/zlc, azx, zjk alc/zlc

 

[bobpuls]

sorry i don`t follow

 

[yogi_bear]

The ice cream blades are hybrid blades. It is like having 2 blades packed into 1 blade. The azxi is like innerforce alc on 1 side and inneroforce zlc on the other. The azx is like zjk alc and zlc combined also.

I get this one... But I'm pointing on the fact that second veneer is not limba

 

[yogi_bear]

Nope, the 2nd veneer is limba. Looking at the pics is not enough.

In the video we can see Jeoung Youngsik is using Hurricane 3 blue sponge on the forehand. That is surprising

 

[guni4you]

Hey Yogi,

Did you try a different hurricane 3 on your stiga dynasty carbon? How were the results?

[bobpuls]

Ok here I have to trust you...

 

[yogi_bear]

Yes, i tried a regular red boosted h3 and it was good. It was probably an overboosted h3 that made my shots hit the net.

Hey Yogi,

[guni4you]

How is the blade compared to dhs long V?Seems similar to me as both have great control.What do you think?

Yes, i tried a regular red boosted h3 and it was good. It was probably an overboosted h3 that made my shots hit the net.

 

[yogi_bear]

It is similar with the ML but onoy in the alc side. Quality of course is much higher for azxi.
