The Xiom Vega Pro is a high quality rubber with excellent spin and speed capabilities. It is suitable for players looking to improve their offensive game. The rubber’s bounciness and tackiness make it easy to generate heavy topspin shots. However, the durability could be better as it tends to wear out quickly with heavy use. Overall, a great choice for players seeking a versatile and power-oriented rubber.

Good short pips, given the price. It can generate a reasonable amount of spin.

#3February 2019

It’s a good rubber and is not very fast. That is good for smashing and blocking.

I am not quite sure about this rubber yet. I prefer Victas 102, Spinlord Waran 2, Andro Hexer Pips+, and Tibhar Speedy Soft D Tecs. I will find time to explore it further.

Легко играть этими накладками.

Very good.

The title says it all. This is the best short pips I have tried. It’s on par with 802, but it’s spinnier and more durable in my opinion. The conical pips hold their strength for an incredibly long time. If you play regularly, you don’t need expensive rubbers. And because of the pips, one can hit harder and faster with less force than with inverted.
Don’t invest in expensive equipment. RITC knows it. Although they might seem outdated, but out of competition level play, these rubbers excel in clubs.
I also use 729 FX bluesponge on BH. These two cost less than one sheet of modern inverted, and with proper skills, they can match those rubbers all the time.

The rubber is smaller than my blade even though it is new. I have never encountered a situation where a square rubber is smaller than the blade. Did the producers of these equipments not measure the largest blade? I don’t think so and still… I was very disappointed. I had to glue the rubber almost 1 cm higher from its normal place in order to cover the head of the blade. I don’t think I’ll recommend the brand or the provider to anybody.

Easy to use. Good sinking effect.

#10April 2017

Pretty fast rubber. First time trying short pips. Still sensitive to incoming spin. Strokes have to be perfect.

#11January 2017

Good control but a little slow compared to the modern pips nowadays, unless you boost it.

#12November 2016

Good rubber for backhand.

#13November 2016

Ships well.

#14September 2016

I bought it for my friend. He likes it.

#15August 2016

Very nice short pimple for smashing. You can use this on the forehand side or backhand side.

#16July 2016

Excellent attacking short pips.

나는 중국식 펜홀더의 포렌드에 1.5mm 를 사용하고 있다.
2.0, 1.8, 1.5mm 를 테스트해봤는데 공격과 수비에 가장 적합한 스폰지 두께는 1.5mm 라 생각한다.
빠른 스피드와 상대 공격의 제어에 적합하며, 상대의 강한 드라이브를 무시하고 받아칠 수 있다는 것이 가장 매력적이다.

He plays with Wo Yang rubber, and he is a defender.

My coach advises this rubber after 3-6 months of using modern soft vertical pips. Very popular, even the pros use it.

#20September 2015

One of the best short pips I’ve tried, and it’s not expensive. Excellent at hitting and even chopping away from the table with my def+ blade. Thanks, Tabletennis11, for the excellent service. I appreciate the service very much; on-time and good quality package.

#21July 2015

Very good rubber.

#22December 2014

The bat and rubbers are a Christmas present and remain unused.

On the advice of TT11’s customer service, I chose this rubber to pair with a Neottec Magic Control as a gift for a novice for her first custom setup. It is a nice rubber that she has been able to adapt to in a fairly short order, and she will replace it with more of the same when the time comes.

Thanks TT11!

#24March 2025

Bought this together with a blade for a friend. She really likes the combo.

#25April 2024

Durable rubber, meets expectations, allows for attacking and controlling spin as well as speed both on and off the table.

Review text:

  • You must develop a very accurate technique in order to play successfully with this rubber.
  • You can’t play a physical match with this rubber; you can play while standing up and without moving too much, and if you move it does not change anything.
  • For technical blockers and defenders.

Good rubber for looping and blocking.
