Xiom Omega 8 PRO – Table Tennis Rubber for Future Champions
The Xiom Omega 8 PRO is the latest masterpiece of Xiom technology, designed for players who yearn to push boundaries and dominate at the table tennis table. This rubber is more than just a tool—it’s a partner that blends cutting-edge engineering with a player’s intuition. Crafted by South Korean table tennis innovators, the Omega 8 PRO embodies Xiom’s mission: to empower players to express their unique style and achieve the highest results.
Technical Characteristics:
- Sponge Technology: The Omega 8 PRO features the next-generation “Hyper Elasto Carbo Sponge” with a hardness of approximately 45–47 degrees (medium-hard category). Infused with micro-carbon particles, this sponge creates a “catapult effect,” releasing stored energy during strikes to deliver impressive speed and a deep ball trajectory.
- Top Sheet: A specially designed “Dynamic Friction” surface—slightly tacky yet highly durable. This layer provides exceptional grip on the ball, enabling powerful topspins and precise counterattacks.
- Speed Index: High, approaching professional standards (approximately 9.5/10 on the Xiom scale).
- Spin Potential: Maximum (10/10), perfectly suited for spin-focused play.
- Thickness Options: MAX. The MAX variant is for attacking players seeking more powerful shots.
- Weight: Approximately 65–68 g (depending on trimming), balanced to maintain lightness while ensuring stability.
Playing Feel and Advantages:
The Xiom Omega 8 PRO stands out by combining the control of European rubbers with the power of Asian rubbers. Its sponge acts like a spring—every shot feels alive, and the ball flies with a clearly perceptible trajectory. The rubber excels at topspin shots: thanks to the unique grip of its surface, the ball gains intense spin that often proves unstoppable for opponents.
This rubber also impresses with its versatility. While designed for offense, the Omega 8 PRO allows for precise control of short balls and effective defense against strong attacks. Players will notice that even during fast-paced rallies, the rubber remains responsive, with easily adjustable shot angles. This makes it an excellent choice for both frontline fighters and those who prefer playing slightly back from the table.
Who It’s For:
The Xiom Omega 8 PRO is ideal for advanced and professional players with refined techniques and an aggressive, attack-oriented playing style. It pairs perfectly with fast blades (e.g., OFF or OFF+ types) but can also be used with balanced ALL-type blades if a player seeks more control. It’s most commonly recommended for the forehand side, though backhand specialists will also discover its strengths, particularly for quick counterattacks.
Why Choose Omega 8 PRO?
This rubber instills confidence at every step—from powerful serves to extended point play. Xiom engineers have packed everything a modern table tennis virtuoso needs into this rubber: speed, spin, durability, and a feel that inspires victory. If your goal is not just to play but to win, the Xiom Omega 8 PRO will become the heart of your paddle.
Xiom Omega 8 PRO and Xiom Omega 8 China are rubbers from the Xiom Omega 8 series, tailored to different playing styles. The Omega 8 PRO features a slightly tacky “Dynamic Friction” topsheet and a medium-hard (45–47 degrees) elastic sponge, delivering high speed (9.5/10) and a strong “catapult effect,” making it ideal for fast, versatile attacking play, especially at mid-distance. Lighter (65–68 g) and reminiscent of European “Tensor” rubbers, it suits aggressive players who value a balance of speed and spin.
In contrast, the Omega 8 China boasts a highly tacky “X Factor Sticky” topsheet and a harder (50–52 degrees) sponge, focused on maximum spin (10/10) with slightly less speed (9/10). Heavier (68–72 g) and echoing traditional Chinese rubber traits, it’s designed for players prioritizing powerful topspins, serves, and control in close-to-the-table play.
In short, the PRO is faster and more flexible, suited to a broader range of attacking styles, while the China is tackier and harder, emphasizing spin and Chinese-style technique near the table.
