STRADIVARIUS, which has been one of the bestseller of XIOM, was reborn for top players of new era. ARAMID CARBON, which is the mixture of vibration absorbing soft Aramid and highly elastic Carbon, provides ideal performance for professional offensive players. STRADIVARIUS catches ball deeply with sufficient deformation, but the residual vibration after impact is greatly reduced by high-tech material. The results are the combination of exceptional spin capability and stable feel. Player can feel the moment of impact directly and clearly without any irritating vibration. The topspin attack close to table or from mid-distance is very powerful and secure. When combined with new "HYPER ELASTO" rubber such as VEGA PRO, STRADIVARIUS shows even greater performance.

This blade has a lot of speed! It's got some softness to it, but it's hard to keep the ball down. Your topspin drives come out fast and tend to go long, so I'd recommend hitting flatter/more horizontal. It flies quite a bit, but pushes, stops, and flicks are all easy to do! Blocking is fast and easy too. On counters you'll go long if you don't hold back a bit. I'd recommend this for players who want to attack with topspin drives from mid-distance rather than fight it out close to the table!

It's a nice blade!
Performance-wise, I think it's really close to an outer-carbon ALC blade. And yet the price is almost half.
I think that's plenty good!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

Like a lot of people say, it's quite close to the Timo Boll.
It leans more toward the Spirit than the ALC, and since the blade is thin, you can feel the flex while putting heavy spin on the ball.
It has plenty of bounce too, and I felt it paired really well with the same brand's Omega VII.It's also inexpensive and easy to handle, so it might be a good entry point into composite blades.
Also, if you used the Timo Spirit before but the Timo Boll ALC didn't suit you, I think it's worth giving this one a try.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

I'd been interested in XIOM blades for a while, so I bought one.
The feel is good, the spin is good, the speed is good.
But it flies a bit too much, so it was hard to control.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard

The ball leaves the blade quickly and flies straight, but it's a curious blade in that the feel is somehow softer than a plain carbon blade.
The straight trajectory really brought out a lot of power on smashes, but the short game being difficult is a drawback.
Putting a high-elasticity short pips rubber like Spectol on it gives just the right amount of bounce, and might let you really bring out the character of short pips.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness little hard
