Xiom new collection (2024)

[SFF_lib]

Recently fell in love with Vega China after some disappointing experience with H3 slipping.

I want Xiom to make a more powerful version of Vega China with the same level of tack. Why not make a Pro China?

C55, Guang and Ying have too little tack.

You could be in luck. Vega China + , possibly a new version of the Vega China, has been added to LARC a while ago.

Tau 3, C52.5 and C57.5 have also been added to LARC.

I actually never tried Vega China. How is it compared to H3 BS? Can you comment on durability too?

On Vega China (VC) it says “中粘” means medium tacky.

By today’s H3 standard, VC is tackier than the new H3.

Durability is better than my Prov H3 tbh.

Ease of access to power and spin is my favourite part. I get injured sometimes and that really help.

As long as you play mid to close distance VC spin just as well as H3 tbh.

Just a video on what the sheets look like for the China and Pro

For 58.5 degree, 74g is pretty good.

First China rubber in the Omega series I would like to try. I hope this will be as durable as my Vega China (3-6hrs a week over a year) and spin as well as 09C

I believe the Omega 8 China is 52.5 degrees.

I am also curious about the durabiliy of the Omega 8 Series. Considering their advertisement, it can be assumed that the O8 China will play somewhat similar to the C55. C55 is very spinny but durability is just average

You’re correct. Thanks for clarifying.

52.5 degree max 1.9mm sponge. Sounds like a bh rubber.

My Vega China (55degree) feels good on BH.

You keep saying good stuff about the vega china. maybe the time has come where I have to try that rubber out.

But, whenever I try out anything (mostly rackets of clubmates), nothing comes close to h3 blue sponge. I am not talking about the spin or anything, just about the hitting feeling. I am too comfortable with h3.

I know you played about almost every version of h3, how was the switch to vega china for you?

Totally. My FH is H3 provincial BS. I use Vega China on BH.

Its either Max (corresponds to 2.1/2.2mm) or 1.9mm. It does not mean MAX=1.9mm

and how do you like it on FH compared to h3 BS?

doesn't Vega China feel dead especially since its 54 degrees.

 

[OvrChkn]

I'm hoping to try out the O8 China on backhand as well. C55 has been amazing for me on the forehand.

Looks like the Pro and China are in stock now on TT11. Just Max though.

Yes in short game, not in rally.

VC is much easier to play. You can activate the ESN kick much easier compared to H3 BS boosted.
