With the new Omega VII rubbers, Xiom has succeeded in a small revolution when it comes to tensor rubbers. Unlike many other manufacturers in the development of the Xiom Omega VII Pro, the priority was not to use a sponge as thick as possible, but to a noticeable weight reduction. And the results of those efforts can really be seen. Cut to size, this rubber weighs just under 5 grams less than the medium-hard tensor rubbers of other manufacturers. This, of course, opens up even more options with regard to the combination of rubber and wood. Thus, for example, some weight can be saved for the rubbers, if one already prefers a slightly heavier wood. Of course, in combination with a light balsa wood you could also assemble a racket as light as possible. Countless options are just waiting to be discovered and tested by you.
But the Omega VII Pro convinces not only with its light weight, but also with excellent gaming properties. The rubber is composed of a grippy, elastic upper rubber and a large pore, 47. 5° hard sponge. Therefore, it is a medium-hard, powerful attack rubber.
The built-in catapult effect and excellent energy transfer ensure an efficient acceleration of all attack strokes. You can play top spins both at the table and from a medium distance to the table, depending on the game situation, with a lot of rotation or pressure. Due to the wide flight curve, the opponent will hardly be able to play back any of your hard final blows. But even in controlled attacks, it is not easy for your opponent, even with a plastic ball, to find the ideal ball meeting point when blocking. The high ground speed also makes it easier to actively and accurately block enemy attacks.
With passive blocks, you must first develop the right feeling so that the balls do not end up behind the table due to the catapult effect.
The rubber also allows you with its high spin potential an ideal start in ball changes. Variable and rotational surcharges are not a problem. In the return game, with a good position to the ball, all the flip variants, as well as the short lay-off very well succeed. A good technique, a high level of play and regular training naturally have a positive effect on safety during the setback.
For years, many players have been waiting for lighter tensor rubbers. With the Xiom Omega VII Pro, a weight-optimized rubber for all dynamic topspin players will soon be launched.
