Xiom Omega VII Asia

Rubber description:

The Xiom Omega VII Asia is a highly regarded table tennis rubber designed for aggressive players seeking a perfect blend of speed, spin, and control. With an overall rating of 9.2 and impressive scores of 12 for both speed and spin, this rubber excels in delivering powerful performance during play. Players appreciate its exceptional consistency and responsiveness, making it a suitable choice for advanced players who rely on precise shots and effective spin generation.

When it comes to tackiness, the Omega VII Asia features a moderate level, rated at 2.1. This ensures that while it can generate considerable spin, it does not overly rely on tacky surfaces, providing greater versatility in shots. The rubber’s weight is classified as medium (6.1), which balances well with various blade types, including both Japanese and European setups, without compromising speed or control. The rubber’s durability is also commendable, with a rating of 8.1, making it a cost-effective option for regular players who demand longevity without sacrificing performance.

In terms of alternatives, the Xiom Omega VII Asia is often compared to the popular Tenergy series from Butterfly, particularly the Tenergy 05, which many players find comparable in terms of quality and performance. However, users of the Omega VII Asia often note that it provides a unique feel that can enhance their game, offering a balance between Japanese and Chinese rubber characteristics. Other recommended rubbers for those who enjoy the Omega VII experience include the Vega Tour and the Andro Rasanter R50, which cater to players looking for a similar performance but with distinct nuances suited to their individual styles.

I use this rubber on my backhand. The hardness and low throw angle are what I like about it. The hardness allows for more extreme shots to be played, while the throw angle makes it harder for my opponent to return the ball.

The spin is on a good level, but the speed is quite nice. Having carbon in the sponge makes it a lot lighter than other rubbers in its hardness class, which helps me bring my whole set-up to a more comfortable weight level.

I used one on my Bty. Taksim CPH blade. One of the very good rubbers in the Xiom OMG 7 series is similar to Pro & Tour but much better than Europe. It can definitely be compared close to Bty. T05 series of rubbers.

Another Xiom rubber to be recommended is Vega Tour. I used two pieces and it was such a good surprise that it played much better than Vega Pro. I’ll try the new Sigma 3 & 4 and will write reviews.

Para mi gusto, el mejor caucho para mi derecha (grosor MAX) es muy controlable, rápido y gira bien. En duelos de pegada contra pegada, siempre sale victorioso y hace todo bien.
