Update no.2 I got rid of the xiom omega 8 China (too soft and dead feeling / super indirect, compared to an actual China rubber). Swapped to helix platinum xh on my forehand and bought a new sheet of dna platinum xh with the thick 2.3mm sponge for my backhand. I played some local league matches...

I’ve just switched to helix platinum xh from dna platinum xh for backhand and I was very disappointed at first. It was so bad I gave up and swapped sides which is when I tried the helix for forehand, and it suddenly made a lot more sense. It has more spin, less linearity, and slightly thicker...

I just tried it in decathlon at Canada Water where they have a table tennis club that is open non stop. I have to say it’s a great table. The surface is a little on the smooth side so it plays a bit quicker than the powder coated butterfly competition tables I’m used to but it could be the...

Hi all! Apologies, this is a very convoluted question and my first post… My question is, does the xiom omega 8 hybrid play as well as the xiom vega tour for direct hitting?! I have my eye on xiom omega 8 hybrid because I’m looking for a low throwing rubber that plays really well close to the...

Do you still hold that opinion now that you have used them for longer?
