Xiom calls this new generation of rubber ELASTO FUTURA. This synchronizes the technology of Dynamic Friction with Carbo Sponge to give an extremely powerful advantage to offensive play. The chart below illustrates the gain in speed and spin achieved with this new generation rubber (yellow points) as compared to the previous generation (white points).

CYCLOID is how Xiom describes the methodology it uses to develop rubbers for a specific purpose. With the Omega VII rubbers, Xiom wanted to add more speed to the ball while retaining good control. This rubber has a higher throw angle, which allows your shots to land deeper on your opponent's end with more speed, but at the same time provides a safer margin of error. OMEGA VII creates opportunities to win.

With the advent of the 40+ poly ball, a new problem was introduced to table tennis. The new balls are made of materials that are more slippery than the celluloid balls they replace. And slippage between rubber and ball during that critical racket-ball contact stage results in loss of speed, spin, and control—it's really bad! Xiom solved this problem by evolving snow tire technology to table tennis rubbers. DYNAMIC FRICTION ensures the rubber grabs the ball securely so maximum energy transfer occurs and control is enhanced.

THIS IS A REVOLUTION! The color of CARBO SPONGE is exciting black. This isn't just a color, but the symbol of advanced technology. CARBO SPONGE shows incomparable energy efficiency due to the insertion of carbon composite into the cell structure of the sponge. The energy loss is minimized as the sponge is depressed by the ball and then snaps back and is less than that of any other sponge. This means more energy is transferred to ball during impact, resulting in your shots having more power. Slight reduction of weight is another advantage of the use of new material.
