I remember when they busted out with the B2x rods and said they were fast. They felt medium or medium fast to me, depending on which line weight you were using.

XP owner here also....love em in 6 and 8 weight. Z-Axis was nice too and the 6 weight was good, however I give the 6 and heavier lines to XP and the 5 and under to Z-Axis.
