Xiom Omega VII Asia

The Xiom Omega VII Asia is a high-performance tensor rubber featuring a hard sponge that requires developed technique to unlock its full potential. Designed primarily for aggressive attacking players, it excels in close-to-the-table play, offering a blend of significant speed and effective spin generation. It is highly regarded for its durability and its ability to perform across a variety of shots, including powerful smashes, aggressive blocks, and consistent looping.

Key Playing Characteristics

• Performance: Offers high speed and significant spin potential, suitable for advanced players looking for an assertive, offensive weapon.
• Control and Feel: While it provides notable control for an offensive rubber, it is sensitive to incoming spin and requires precise technique to manage the ball’s trajectory, particularly during service returns.
• Dwell and Throw: Characterized by a lower throw angle, which helps in pressuring opponents with flat, fast, and accurate shots. The topsheet is not inherently sticky, but it produces substantial spin when utilized with correct stroke mechanics.
• Adaptability: The rubber performance often improves after an initial “running-in” period. It is versatile enough to be used on both the forehand and backhand, though its behavior and power delivery can vary depending on the sponge thickness and the characteristics of the blade it is paired with.
