Xiom has succeeded in developing a medium hard rubber that differs from comparable rubbers not primarily in its playing properties, but in its lower weight. The Xiom Omega VII Euro just 4-6 grams less on the scale than similar tensor rubbers (values from 5 tests so far). This weight saving makes the rubber particularly interesting for players who prefer a racket that is as light as possible. But all other players also benefit from the low weight, because they have to spend a little less power on all attacking strokes than before.
But the game features of the Omega VII Euro are also convincing. Because the spinelastic upper rubber and the 45° hard sponge harmonize perfectly and create an ingenious playing behaviour. In offensive play, the upper rubber guarantees a high rotation potential and the built-in fresh glue effect ensures efficient acceleration. A dynamic topspin game therefore succeeds excellently both close to the table and from the half-distance. Even with hard shots, the Omega VII Euro offers a lot of power, so it hardly differs from harder tensor rubbers. However, all offensive shots can be well controlled, so a high hit rate is guaranteed.
In block play, you can use this rubber in addition to safe passively played blockballs and also pressure blocks without problems. For own toppings, the low weight leads to excellent handling, so that all toppings can be ideally dosed and placed. In addition, the rubber compound of the upper rubber gives the balls a lot of rotation, even with slow movements. In the kickback game, emotional flips are the great strength of the rubber. The short drop, on the other hand, requires a little more practice, as the strong fresh glue effect makes it difficult to keep the ball flat.
In summary, the Xiom Omega VII Euro can be classified as a high-performance medium rubber. It is suitable for a variable and topspin-laden attack game. Especially the game from the half distance is optimally supported by an impressive spin dynamics. Another big plus is the noticeably lower weight compared to many other medium rubber.
