Help me choose a Xiom rubber

This user has no status.
I have been wanting to try a Xiom rubber but since Xiom's range of rubbers are expansive I don't know which one to get. I will be using it on my fh. My fh shots are mostly loops. The blade I will be using is a stiff and fast hinoki composite blade.

The characteristics I am looking for are massive spin, medium speed, and good durability.

I have already done my share of reading and researching but I just want to see what other forum members recommend.

Thank you.

Would agree with the two previous posts.

Here is how I would say it.

If you want a lot of spin with not too much speed Sigma II is awesome and a small notch better than Vega Pro.

If you want good speed with as much spin as Sigma II then Omega V Pro is a small notch better than Sigma II.

If you want something significantly less expensive with a very good amount of spin and a really good balance between spin, speed and control, then VEGA PRO is the best overall value. A decent amount less expensive and pretty close to the higher price rubbers in performance.

Thanks everyone. I am leaning towards Sigma 2 Euro and Vega Pro. The price of Omega V is a bit over my budget.

Btw, I was supposed to get a Xiom rubber in the next 3 months or so. But I think I have over tuned my Yinhe Moon. I was able to stretch it for around 7mm. It now plays odd.. Ooops. :D

If you take the rubbers off and let the sponge air out for a few more days it may lose some of the boost effect and play better.
