Optimized performance for aggressive, close-to-table play
Enhanced control and reduced weight

As its name expresses, ARIA LITE is a lighter version of ARIA. The thickness of blade is optimized to 5.8 mm for more stability of aggressive topspin strategy. ARIA LITE maintains the ability the power of close-to-table topspin, but its weight was reduced greatly and its control was significantly enhanced. ARIA LITE let players easily aim at the rising of ball from bounce, which gives more chance for taking advantage of game. Also its topspin is very heavy and sharp. ARIA LITE is recommended for the aggressive topspin players of modern Chinese style. ARIA LITE is also suitable for modern all-round strategy. The rubbers equipped with hard sponge, such as VEGA PRO, OMEGA II ASIA, and ZETA ASIA, will make very good combination with ARIA LITE.

VERY SENSITIVE ALL-WOOD BLADES FOR AGGRESSIVE PLAYERS

NOVUS SPEEDWOOD is a family of all wood blades for Chinese style aggressive offensive play. The feel and performance was optimized to satisfy the preference of Chinese players. NOVUS SPEEDWOOD blades are sharp and very sensitive. The deformation of blade was also optimized to the purpose of each blades - close-to-table topspin or classic fast attack. Every blade of NOVUS SPEEDWOOD provides excellent stability and power when players play close to table with aggressive strategy. The rose red color of handle is the symbol of enthusiasm and aggressiveness.

The center deflection behavior of NOVUS SPEEDWOOD is captive. It means that the blades catch ball more deeply along with the increase of impact strength. NOVUS SPEEDWOOD blades are suitable for close-totable continuous topspin play. The feel of NOVUS SPEEDWOOD is relatively stiff (hard), especially when compared with that of NOVUS TOURWOOD. It is exciting and compact. NOVUS SPEEDWOOD is suitable for Chinese style table tennis.

Essence of pure power in new 5 ply wood construction. Born to topspin.

• All wood but power oriented construction
• Energy loss from deformation reduced by 12% from XIOM Maximus
• Clear but comfortable energy fell
  

It was the common belief that 5 ply blade has a good control and feel but slower speed. ARIA breaks that myth without any doubt. While keeping the natural feel of 5 ply all wood blade, ARIA has the pure sense of aggressive power. Thicker but character-balanced veneer combination greatly enhanced all the expected speed measures. ARIA re-structured the energy efficiency and vibration performance from European classics. Each layer has a new balance with another to maximize the overall power capability. Such a powerful topspin from the far distance you can make with easier control. Construction aims at the match with softer OMEGA European series.

Revolutionized Wood Blades In New Harmony With New Generation Rubbers

Ideal blades minimize the loss of energy and promote the rubber to make its intended performance at full. They also should deliver the sense made by the ball impact exactly and clearly to the brain through a body. XIOM developed the unique system to develop the ideal blades by a series of time taking researches. NOVUS SPEEDWOOD series are revolutionized in new system and design to enhance the efficiency in energy transfer and vibration transfer. Each of 3 blade models in the series has its own very distinctive advantages but focuses on the balance with new TENSOR BIOS rubbers of XIOM. XIOM new generation rubbers for 2008 ban of speed glue can be fully exploited with NOVUS SPEEDWOOD series.

Innovated construction of speedwood

NOVUS SPEEDWOOD series are developed to match with new rubber series of XIOM. Escaped from traditional construction SPEEDWOOD series used unique veneers like SUPRUCE and KOTO. SUPRUCE has its own unique character in hardness, density, and vibration. KOTO is quite hard/heavy but excellent in feel transfer to improve the overall balance of a blade. NOVUS SPEEDWOOD carefully selected the natural wood to use by weight and density.

Positioning of Novus wood blades

Novus Speedwood

High performance blades for post-ban era completed by VIBROTECH. 3 models cover the bigger range in character. Very different identities at rather extreme positioning are created all by 5 ply construction. Stable and very distictive characters make SPEEDWOOD series unique.

Novus Swedish

Focused on professional use with very balanced positioning in character. All made with original Kiso Hinoki surface created the new feeling and the new performance. 3 models has relatively similar characters but with delicate differences. Energy efficiency has been greatly improved by SCANWOOD technology.

New Speed Measure

Standard To Explain The Speed

The traditional terms like OFF- or ALL+ confuse the players to identify the real speed character of a blade. So far the table tennis industry did not use standardized and object measure to explain about the speed. As an example, ALL blade is generally accepted as a 5 ply blade with low rebound and lightweight for allround play. But top players use ALL blades to play very speedy and aggressive games. Swing speed, experience, and rubbers can influence more on the speed character. The speed character cannot be defined by simple rebound height of a ball from the blade surface. XIOM adopted new speed measure from 2008 to explain the speed character of all blade series. REBOUND MEASURE indicates the repulsion level of construction influenced by hardness, weight, and thickness. HIGH SPEED PERFORMANCE explains the moment reaction of a blade against a high speed ball in real play paradigm. Good new is now that these measures are object and standardized by testing machines.

Omega Series

Historic advantage of rubber technology proven real-play performance after the ban

Built-in tension of OMEGA series exceeds the average speed glue effect and the booster effect made by uncomfortable and illegal liquid gluings.

Boosters and Speed Glues are illegal

For the true spirit of table tennis

VOC packed speed glues damage the enviroment and the health of the people. It has also been damaging the image of table tennis. Since ITTF announced the new regulation to stop the speed glue for the benefit of table tennis, as a bounce back of some habitual gluers, some boosters were introduced to the market. But boosters are still skin-irritating hazardous compounds against the spirit of new regulation. Finally ITTF also banned the boosters along with any substances other than water glue simply to attach the rubber on the blade.

The ITTF regulation 2.04.07 "The covering material should be used as it has been authorized by ITTF without any physical, chemical or other treatment, changing or modifying playing properties, friction, outlook, colour, structure, surface etc..."

Amazing new technology for the spirit

True spirit of ban can be found in new technology applied to OMEGA series. OMEGA series, are not only clean and safe but also professonally performing at top level of table tennis play.
