Under €40 but is it any good? | Xiom Vega X Review

Yes guys, and we're back with another review!

Here's our latest full and comprehensive review of the new Vega X rubber by XIOM!

Xiom release a new rubber under €40 which they claim to be a top line rubber... we find out if this rubber matches the claim.

Would you sacrifice a bit of speed and spin for a less expensive rubber? Who's tried the Vega X yet?

[DQ]

This is the type of rubber that most developing/intermediate players should be playing I think. We don't need insane power we just need to put the ball on the table

To summarize in 4 words "Best value for price"

Was delighted to see some cheaper rubbers being reviewed. Absolutely LOVE TTD. Just started playing after 34 yr hiatus, spent months in bed after spinal surgery, but Dan, your set up is amazing for a table tennis nut like me!! Truly love everything about the game, especially the equipment. TTD, just co era be lot. I’m only a club player but loving it even more. Could you test some Victas products.Started to use their kit. Fond regards. Leo - Aylesbury Bucks

Sometimes I think if the same rubber would be at a different price point - i.e. 65 Euro - the review and the opinion in the community about that rubber would be totally different. Than it would be a pro rubber ;-)

This rubber is absolutely phenomenal. Real fast and spinny, I play this on a off- wood blade and it's just great

[bartolomejjonas]

Plese, do a Joola Rhyzer review... lot of players use it... Daniel Habesson, Adrien Mattenet...

[TheBrechbuehler]

i love that rubber! really noticed the better control in blocks and topspin-topspin rallies!

You guys still haven't reviewed the Omega 7 Tour, which is being used by pro players like Calderano and Youngsik. And now there's Omega 7 Hyper as well. Maybe a direct comparison between O7H and O7T?

The rubber is quite nice, but the greatest downside is the weight! 2.0 mm sponge and cut on a viscaria was over 50 Gramms. With maximum sponge even heavier. Compared to other lighter rubbers you could gain up to 15 Gramms, if you put the rubbers on both sides, which totally shifts the balance of the blade. Long story short: I tested them briefly and sold them asap. Not for me...

Comparing it to Xiom Vega Pro in terms of sponge hardness which of the two is

If company has a top of the line rubber @ this price & imagine how much quality, improvements company might have put on emphasise to make it best, then what else we want ? Seams like 💯 % give it a try to feel it. On top of all of if have such amazing, quality & in depth review by dear TOM & DAN it is heaven 😀. Thanks a lot guy for the upload of a demanding rubbers. Keep rocking your game.

I use VEGA X Asia for 12 months and then swopped one side for ASIA Europe and really noticed the difference but how would those perform with different bat

Dear Dan and Tom, I appreciate your work and your channel - especially the new series of you guys playing. From a players standpoint I also appreciate the consistency in your game - it's really amazing! But unfortenately when it comes to your reviews, the concept seems questionable for me. It's still possible to find out the small differences of judgement of the rubbers and blades inbetween the pure advertisement you'll have to make because of your affiliate deals or what ever sorts of contracts you must have with the brands who would give you their material (and I really don't judge you for that! It is absolutely clear that you'll have to find a way to finance the channel and everything). But in this case it's just too obvious. Sorry guys, but it is really not nice that you have to rate down a Xiom rubber which is not settled in the totally overexaggerated price-span of a few "high-tech"-rubbers that are out there! From all I have read about this rubber it should be a very very good rubber totally comparable to the other products (in one german forum the guys are comparing it to dignics 80 both in speed and spin and some rate it even higher!). This rubber is claimed to be one of the best in terms of rotation with the plastic ball. I don't even play that rubber, so it's not about that. I just don't think that the price should play such a big role in your judgement. Xiom like Yasaka, Gewo and other brands just found a way to produce their equipment a bit cheaper (and as others already said here in the comments - the margin of a table tennis rubber is still incredible high - come on guys, except for the research and development sector you really do not have that high costs in putting together different sorts of rubbers and synthetic rubbers once the concept is clear). Apart from that: Keep up the work! I would still like to see a review of the Victas V>15 Extra which I am playing for like 2 years now! I think this rubber like Tibhar MX-P, Xiom Omega VII pro, Rakza 7 and a few others and maybe now Vega X as well are totally comparable to the Butterfly Tenergy and Dignics series regarding overall performance - all with slightly different approaches how to get to this performance (I mean like rotation-speed-ratio, control, catapult, height of ball trajectory and things like that). I'm interested what you'd say! Greetings!

When are you uploading about the ping pong championships?

[ВікторЧорнобривець-жд]

сегодня отыграл этой накладкой 3 часа - это просто шедевр за такие деньги, да и вообще не только по цене.... по запилу по подачам по контролю -короче лучшей резины как вега Х для меня не было (для моей игры)))

[Kernoe]

since 2 years a happy user, it is just a good idea to play it a bit less than half a year with regular training max. 4 month. For me it is actually really good for dangerous hard to block attack topspins.

[ShrimpkUgel]

So what's the difference between this and the Vega pro?

[jonneville]

Apparently it's pronounced 'Axiom', not 'Ziom'. Great video, keep up the good work.

Just heard Dan say “it’s hard to generate enough speed to get past your opponent”… he says this as he plays against Tom The Frog who is/was rank 11 in England last I heard!… I little bit of a tricky opponent to get anything past. 😂😜
