The fastest version of these rubbers is the Xiom Vega Asia. It behaves in a highly uncompromising manner, especially from the mid distance. With the Xiom Vega Asia, you can exert much pressure on your opponent! In case you prefer soft rubbers and allrounders, the Xiom Vega Elite might be an interesting and easy-to-play table tennis rubber for you. By the way, the Xiom Vega Elite is the only Vega rubber which does not contain the black Carbo sponge.
Due to the permanent developments in terms of rubber technologies, the initial rubber versions Xiom Vega Pro, Xiom Vega Asia, Xiom Vega Europe, and Xiom Vega Elite were complemented by further products. First, there were the already mentioned Xiom Vega Japan, and the Xiom Vega China. The latter table tennis rubber is very hard, and exhibts a highly sticky topsheet. Hence, the Xiom Vega China behaves in a slightly different way compared to the typical Vega rubbers, and was mainly designed for the Asian ping pong market.
As you might know, the introduction of the new ping pong balls made of plastic caused some changes in terms of their flight and jump behavior. Therefore, also Xiom revised their rubbers Xiom Vega Europe and Xiom Vega Asia. As a consequence, the South Korean table tennis brand introduced the Xiom Vega Europe DF and the Xiom Vega Asia DF to the market. The DF technology (DF stands for Dynamic Friction) promises more dynamics and an increased catapult effect to help making playing with the new plastic balls easier.
When searching for the best suitable material, the other approach is to reduce the speed-gluing effect of the rubbers. This causes an increased control during the game. Furthermore, the transition/change from a classical rubber to a tensor rubber with speed-gluing effect is quite large. To deal with this issue, the Xiom Vega Intro was developed. With its medium-hard sponge and the reduced speed-gluing effect, allrounders can breathe a sigh of relief, finally! This is because they prefer harder table tennis rubbers (and not soft rubbers with much catapult), but don´t get along well with the high speed and dynamics of high-end tensors.
The latest addition to this product series is the Xiom Vega Tour. The Xiom Vega Tour is a table tennis rubber equipped with a medium sponge, but it exhibits an extreme amount of catapult & speed without neglecting control. Hence, this rubber is perfect for an uncompromising ping pong game using the new ping pong balls made of plastic.
As an addition to the rubbers with pimples in, the Xiom Vega SPO (short pips) and the Xiom Vega LPO (long pips) may be chosen. These high-quality table tennis rubbers are designed for material players.
