Hyper Elasto
Hyper Elasto optimizes the rebound properties of the rubber, resulting in better acceleration, higher spin, and more control. This allows the table tennis rubber to execute both fast, aggressive shots and precise, controlled balls.
Durability and Elasticity
The rubber is made from specially developed, durable materials that maintain their shape and performance even with regular use and intense shots. Uniform elasticity across the entire surface ensures better balance and noticeably improves the playing feel.
XIOM Vega X Review
Takes Offensive Play to the Next Level Without Losing Control
With its special Hyper Elasto technology, the Vega X offers an impressive combination of high spin and strong dynamics, allowing players to play with power and precision. The rubber is aimed at aggressive players who want to deliver dangerous shots both up close and from a distance.
Gameplay and Performance
In our test, the XIOM Vega X shows its potential especially in fast and powerful rallies. Thanks to its high elasticity and dynamic sponge, the rubber responds instantly to every ball contact, making it ideal for players who want to pressure their opponents with quick topspins and agile attacks. In general, revspin generated by the Vega X is remarkable for both topspins and serves, producing dangerous curves and an unpredictable flight path.
Despite its high dynamics, the rubber remains impressively stable and controllable. Especially in blocking shots or short, precise passive strokes, the Vega X maintains its strengths, allowing for precise ball placement. The hardness of the sponge (medium-hard) offers a pleasant playing feel, providing a balanced mix of feedback and control.
Weight and Handling
Weighing around 1.4–1.6 ounces (cut), the XIOM Vega X falls within the medium weight range. Its light weight allows for quick and responsive play. The direct playing feel makes handling easier, enabling players to use speed and spin effectively.

The Rakza 7 delivers excellent spin and speed for fast attacks. The Tenergy 05 offers exceptional spin and power but is harder to control, especially for less experienced players.
