  1. Xiom Omega 8?

    can you compare O8pro vs O7pro a bit? i liked O7pro in active play but in serves and passive strokes it was a bit to bouncy for me. i wanna go away from vega x and need something faster but without having a trampoline on my paddle like with O7pro or tenergy05
  2. Switch away from Chinese FH rubber, what to choose?

    hybrid: donic bluegrip c2 (close to d09c, closer to hurricane) donic bluestar a1 (closer to tensor) andro rasanter c53 (closer to tensor) tibhar hybrid mk (even closer to tensor) andro nuzn (closest to tensor) xiom j&h c55 (closest to hurricane) xiom omega 8 china (closer to d09c) tensor: andro...
  3. Unoriginal request for help - improving fast and need to upgrade!

    with g-1 you can just go with 2.0 i played it a lot and couldn’t feel any difference to the max one (that is also not available anymore). perfect setup for a loooooong time or for ever. have fun!
  4. Butterfly 2025 New Blades: Outer Force ALC, CAF, ZLC

    good point! but what i think the difference lies more in the playing style. outercarbon blades is a different style of play and when you wanna find a blade that suits that style then you only have two options: 7ply or outercarbon. but outercarbon are hard to control and fast rebound while 7ply...
  5. Butterfly 2025 New Blades: Outer Force ALC, CAF, ZLC

    i don’t understand why they made them thicker? one of the biggest arguments for a carbon blade over an 7ply ist the added stability without a thick construction… i would have understood if they choose softer wood and make them slightly thinner like 5.7 the idea is good and since xiom don’t sell...
  6. Victas rubbers? Best fh, bh rubbers?

    best BH rubber by victas is definitely Ventus Extra! amazing modern rubber with good grab, bounce, curve and extremely durable
  7. Xiom new collection (2024)

    yes i saw that but i get 25% house sale from my tt shop and don’t have expensive shipping cost, so that was sadly never an option just for try something out. not that big of an EJ :) but thanks for your answer! fingers crossed they release all models
  8. Xiom new collection (2024)

    do you also know if omega 8 euro is coming too? …since you never know with xiom. i would have been interested in x47.5 and that never made it to germany
  9. Sabine Winter switches to antispin

    i love it! sabine winter is an amazing player and i hope she will show us what we can achieve if we just do what we love and have fun even in an highly competitive environment <3 wish her the best and will follow her progress
  10. I TESTED MA LONG’S ACTUAL TABLE TENNIS BAT!

    why you think that? before i entered the forum i never hear about fishscale, too! don't get me wrong, i knew how it looks since i play koto blades most of my life but always thought that would be a defect or bad quality. so basically i also chose blades that are 'clean' and without fishscale...
  11. I TESTED MA LONG’S ACTUAL TABLE TENNIS BAT!

    same as i was taught and i am european. (straight arm sounds weird, i think you mean relaxed arm. and what is a forearm snap anyway?)
  12. I TESTED MA LONG’S ACTUAL TABLE TENNIS BAT!

    no, i think it is just the unusual feeling of a heavy boosted rubber. 42° dhs is 60° in euro scale (basically a brick) but with 3 or more thick layers it feels more like a normal hard rubber like around 54 euro scale. together with the softer wood...
  13. I TESTED MA LONG’S ACTUAL TABLE TENNIS BAT!

    i mean dan plays an really stiff outercarbon blade, so quite normal to have an easier time with the slow and flexible innercarbon malong blade. rubbers also way less bouncier and sticky compared to his dignics hence the better grip. but you can see overshooting quite some time, due to the higher...
  14. Xiom new collection (2024)

    but i need to say that i am excited about the omega 8 euro! the omega 5 euro was one of the best backhand rubbers i have tried and only had the problem that it was kinda heavy and maybe not as dynamic as the newest rubbers. the omega 7 was more dynamic but also a lot softer and had less spin and...
  15. Xiom new collection (2024)

    you are right, but it was interesting that this would be the only 'non-existing' blade that is used for photo op and then with the hugo logo. let's see! personally i think it would be good for them to get back on track and to have a buyable blade from their most famous player, especially after...
  16. How many complete racket setups do you own?

    @Grumms how would you rate the outer blades of yours and what did you think about the loki rxton 9 CNF blade? looks like an interesting composition with CNF and basalt interwoven as for the thread: 2x xiom hugo hal with the same rubbers as in my profile 1x loki kirin 5 with loki rxton 9 and...
  17. What's the best blade of fan zhendong series?

    anybody a fan of the CNF blade?
  18. What's the best blade of fan zhendong series?

    even if the blades have the same weights they will play differently depending on the wood they used that day. i have two different hugo hal blades with the same weight and the same rubbers and they play similar enough to switch them in competition and play without a problem, but if they would...
  19. Xiom new collection (2024)

    a picture of hugo and his assumably new racket. looks totally different from the catalog, and no releasedate yet. idk what is going on with xiom right now, but they are changing a lot of stuff last minute as seen with omega 8 rubbers.
  20. A light Chinese rubber with a little catapult and decent spin

    i tried loki rxton 9 and my sheet was 45g in 151x157 on my hugo hal. pretty light for a preboosted rubber
