Has anyone used one and is it worth getting?
Does it go much further than the large or standard midi?
I like the way it holds the float.

Not used these. But the wolf spider spods are better than the spams in my opinion when it comes to actually opening up. May be worth a look

I have one. They're ok but not as good as the spomb for distance imo.

Edit: Also have the Dot, Impact, Airbomb etc etc. All have stronger/weaker points for different applications/baits. This thread is asking for info on the Midi X

I think they are stuck on a slow boat from China (everyone seems to be 'pre order'), the float appears to be integral on this size spomb?

I have used one, didn't find it achieved more distance than my go to medium spomb... And found it wobbled a bit more in the first part of flight... Was better with pellets and boilies than the medium.. But not with a wet mix.... They do float though which is ok if you crack off 😂
Personally I'm sticking to the medium, found it better than the wolf and dot, maybe I'm just stuck in my ways...

Thanks for the info mate.

Was better with pellets and boilies than the medium.. But not with a wet mix...

I find a few of the various options are better/worse for different applications e.g. the Dot is great for heavy baits but useless for light stuff.

I also prefer the bog standard Spomb as an all-rounder.

Thanks again.

I use the mid spomb for extreme range and the wolf x spod for everything shorter that that.
I put gooey spod majority of the time i find the x spod the best method to deliver, its easy to fill never opens mid air, always open upon impact and comes back with ease. But when it comes to 120+ meters i always use a mid spomb yet it opens mid air sometimes and in every 15 casts one wont open upon impact but it flies like crazy.
