Vega Asia from XIOM: A faster and more balanced version in the Vega series. New "Hyper Elasto" top layer of natural rubber provides superb spin. The unique "Carbo Sponge", which was developed using the most advanced technology, provides the most unprecedented energy efficiency. The pimples on Vega Asia have a special structure using a new concept that creates more trampoline effect and extraordinary dwelling feeling at impact. Compared with Vega Pro, the Asia version is softer with more speed and balance. It also a bigger safe zone (window) above the net, which makes every topspin attack more secure and aggressive. Its great balance between speed, spin, and control will make the players' performance purely dynamic and exciting.

It really picks up speed. The combo of a power-drive blade like the Fly Att Carbon Pro with the fast Vega Asia is great~
I'll practice a bit more and write a more detailed review.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I'm a beginner chopper and have this on my forehand. Spin is so-so. It's easy to attack with — actually it makes me want to put this on the backhand of an attacking blade lol lol
And the smash is easy to hit. (with a faster swing speed)
Easy to put spin on (serve with a higher toss)Pairing this with Rozena might bump you up a level...

The topspin drive is easy to do and pushes are stable too, plus it's good value for money, so it's quite easy to use overall.

As you'd expect from Vega. It has a nice amount of grip on the ball for the backhand too. The weak point is probably that it's a bit fragile.

A friend of mine let me borrow this because he was using it to match his Korberu blade (he had it on the forehand side).
Compared to VEGA Europe, this rubber has a harder sponge, but it wasn't that hard, so it was easy to use.
The speed didn't change much from Europe, so there wasn't a clear difference from Europe.
That said, in terms of ease of countering, being the Asia version, I think Asia is a good choice for anyone who feels the sponge on the Europe version is too soft to use.
Finally I tried it on my backhand, and chiquita and similar shots were very easy to do.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I used this on my backhand.
Hitting against backspin is very easy.
Against topspin, blocking short is easy.
But driving against topspin was just okay.
As a result, it suits beginners on both forehand and backhand, and intermediate players on the backhand.
I think it falls short for intermediate players on the forehand, and for advanced players.
My impression is that it's like a softened version of Rozena.
It's inexpensive too, so definitely give it a try!!All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

I'm using this on both sides. Speed drives get good spin and speed. Pushes are no problem either. Blocking is easy and control is decent too. You can put a fair amount of spin on serves as well. This rubber flies with speed drives and smashes, but light taps don't fly nearly as much, so once you get used to it I think you can put it in consistently. Personally though, I did find loop drives a bit harder to do.
