  • VEGA TOUR

    User review

    Currently using this on the B side (backhand).
    The Vega series has been a great series that's helped me out many times since I started playing table tennis, and I think this is exactly its high-end version. If you compare it to XIOM's own lineup, it's like a budget Omega VII — maybe even Pro level. It feels a bit on the soft side to the touch. Rather than the forehand, I think intermediate players and up might prefer it on the backhand. You can put spin on the ball consistently, and even a weak hit still goes forward. It's a rubber that comes together nicely.
    That said, it's a little lacking... it's definitely not bad, but I can't deny it feels slightly inferior to what other makers offer at this price point. It gives off the vibe that you might as well pay a bit more for something like the V-15, a slightly softer G-1, or Rakza. Still, it's perfectly usable, and I'd call it a well-rounded honor student of a rubber. I can also recommend it as a step-up rubber.
    [Addendum]
    I've since re-mounted it on the forehand of my backup racket (a discontinued Nittaku 7-ply blade) and am using it there now.
    I felt it lacking on the backhand, but on the forehand it's stable and actually easier to use. That said, I realized once again that harder rubbers suit me better, so I think Vega X would probably suit me more.

  • LIBERTA SYNERGY PLUS

    User review

    I bought this for the blade and grip design, and because it's made by Darker.
    First off, even though it's an outer carbon blade, it grips the ball an insane amount. It's not quite on the level of that certain butterfly-brand's inner carbon rackets, but even so, I think it's rare for an outer blade to give this much control. I think hard sponges or tacky rubbers pair well with it.
    Serves get plenty of spin on them too, and short-game shots go in without flying off too much. If your swing is weak or your angle is off it'll come out as a flat, dead ball, but even so, it felt like it holds the ball down better than other rackets.

  • OMEGA VII HYPER

    User review

    This is a fun rubber, I really enjoy using it...!
    It's not a tacky rubber, but the feel when you hit the ball is exactly like a tacky rubber. If you hit it with a solid impact, I think you can produce shots that don't lose out to Dignics at all. The hardness is listed as 55, but it didn't feel that hard to me. That said, it's definitely harder than the average rubber. I'd highly recommend it to players with power or a fast swing.
    It also lasts a long time — longer than Tenergy or Dignics — so this is my top pick rubber!

  • KOKI NIWA WOOD

    User review

    I bought this recently when I replaced both my blade and rubber at the same time. It's only been two weeks since I started using it, but I've never had such a wonderful all-wood blade.
    I've always liked heavier all-wood blades and have used a fair number from other makers, but I was shocked at how close the feel, speed, and spin are to a blade with special materials. Since I admire Koki Niwa, I put V-15 Extra on both sides, and my topspin drives really sink into the opponent's court.
    It's a great blade that matches really well with close-to-the-table attacking players. It feels amazing when a counter lands (lol)

  • Fastarc S-1

    User review

    This Fastarc is known for its speed, but since the sheet is soft, I found it surprisingly good at generating spin too. That said, I got the impression that if you put too much force into it, the ball flies off in a weird direction. Even with a small swing the speed is fast, and if you get a good grip on the ball, the spin comes through properly - overall it's a well-rounded, good rubber.
