Innovative topspin weapon by “QUAD” technology
Ideal balance for modern offensive players

ZETRO QUAD is a blade for topspin. Aiming of ZETRO QUAD is purely the improvement of the ability of topspin. “QUAD” means our innovative technology of using four layers of artificial materials sophisticatedly. Zylon fiber which directly placed under top layers increases the ability of grabbing ball. Soft carbon fiber under middle layers adjusts overall performance, and at the same time reduces the unnatural feel which is the shortcoming of Zylon fiber. Top layer of selected KISO HINOKI guarantees comfortable feel. The result is great ability of topspin. Making heavy topspin is effortless, and even secure. Players will always be able to take initiative of their game by effective preparatory topspin attack, and keep it by continuous topspin from any distance.

NOVUS HINOKI CARBON
SUPER COMBINATION OF POWER AND STABILITY

The variation of NOVUS HINOKI CARBON is greatly expanded by the addition of new model. NOVUS HINOKI CARBON is the combination of legendary KISO HINOKI wood and advanced technologies. ENERGY CARBON is newly developed carbon of enhanced energy efficiency, and provides better feel and more power than conventional carbon fibers. QUAD is another new technology of sophisticatedly adjusting the performance of table tennis blade. All blades of NOVUS HINOKI CARBON family are fast, and suitable for power play. But KISO HINOKI grants them very comfortable feel and high level of stability.

Compared to NOVUS TOUR CARBON, NOVUS HINOKI CARBON is more “repulsive”. It means that NOVUS HINOKI CARBON gives ball more speed along with the increase of impact strength. It also means that player can easily select his/her technique between topspin and hard smash. The feel of NOVUS HINOKI CARBON is mild and stiff (hard). Though these blades give hard feel except for ZETRO QUAD, they also give mild and comfortable feel. It is the reason of their ease of use.

The TSP Yanagi Shot is a 5 ply blade with thickness of 5.4mm. The willow outer layer adds more during offensive shots, and more control while chopping.

Awesome power and extra precision. Performance approved by top players.

Performance in real-life play among top players already proved the awesome power of OMEGA II. Professionals have been amazingly successfull with OMEGA II in their competitions after the speed glue ban by ITTF. Without a help of any illegal substances like boosters, breakthrough technology TENSOR BIOS integrated the maximum internal tension into OMEGA II. OMEGA II itself without any speed glues or boosters demonstrates even more powerful performance than any rubbers heavily glued. Extra precision in control also gives the big advantage to your high speed game.

OMEGA II developed for the top players of very offensive style needs a few days of practice for full adoption, simply because the power of built-in effect is far beyond your experience.

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. Speed and spin the players used to get from VOC speed glues are fully built into the OMEGA series. Level of built-in-power and spin effect in OMEGA series is even higher than those from boosters and speed gluers. Instead of struggling with toxic substances, you simply put OMEGA and just focus on your game to win.

Perfect & easy solution. Soft feel, consistent control and exciting speed.

A superior performance breakthrough with TENSOR BIOS technology!

TENSORS BIOS created a maximum effect of speed glue inside the rubber. The built-in speed glue effect of OMEGA I already exceeds the level of speed glue effect from normal speed gluing. Among the OMEGA series, OMEGA I is more balanced towards the control.

The trajectory and path of the ball is very consistent and the ball ends at the spot you intended - very precisely more than ever. Soft but powerful top sheet with maximized built-in speed glue effect creates amazing spin and speed characters.

Adoption to OMEGA I is relatively easier than OMEGA II and III. OMEGA I has a big advantage to on-table techniques and passive blocks. Upgrade your techniques with OMEGA I.

A responsive, lively all-round blade with 'extra power' on demand. This 5.5 version is a highly popular choice for that 'pacy' allround game!

BALSA GLASFIBER-Series

TSP Blades with "intelligent" core. The heart of the patented TSP Balsa-Series is the middle layer. The combination of the elastic fiber glass layers with the vertical wooden fibers leads to a round and especially large hitting area (sweet spot).

The result is an extremely precise bounce of the ball, free of vibration and an amazingly high rate of control at all variations.

The most important feature of the Balsa System is, that the speed of the blade can be varied by adjusting the thickness of the Balsa core. (Weight ca. 70 - 75 g)

Extreme power and superb control for Chinese Players!

Dream combination for Chinese professional play. Legacy continues with new technology.

Unique customization for Chinese professionals of the next generation of breakthrough technology. TENSOR BIOS technology created a theoretical maximum tension inside of ZETA. The advantage of Chinese method to boost the tension in the extremely hard rubber with a series speed gluing will continue with this new technology - now without messy speed glue. Customized top sheet will greatly improve the winning chance in the Chinese style. Amazing power generated from the hard sponge and special top sheet, both under built-in tension will dominate the opponents.

ZETA Dream Combination

Chinese Tradition reborn in new technology

Dream combination for Chinese playing style. Balanced between extreme power and superb control. Breakthrough TENSOR BIOS for close-to-table offensive plays.

Revolutionized Technology

Impact Mechanism of topspin

The force at the impact with the ball is combined with 2 directional forces. Vertical force N creates some speed and helps the horizontal force T to create more spin rotations. In the modern  table tennis game, T force facilitates the most of agress and power. Speed glue effect enhances T over N. XIOM rubbers in TENSOR and TENSOR BIOS technology also focus on increasing T without speed glue while improving N and energy transfer dynamics at ball impact.

Breakthrough to exceed boosters and speed glues

TENSOR technology replacing VOC speed glue effect and booster effect greatly in the last decade. TENSOR BIOS introduced in 2006 reached the level of maximum spin and speed performance without speed glue over TENSOR 1st, 2nd,3rd generation. ZETA for Chinese professionals adopts the new TENSOR BIOS generation which is more stable in dynamics than its original generation. T and N reached the theoretical maximum and exceeded the level of heavily glued or boosted rubbers in average. The consistency in ball trajectory and the precision in ball control are superb if compared with any oter rubbers available.

Customization in real play

The technology itself is not at all complete to satisfy the player's need. To succeed in making final consumer products, the research on the real-play application is a must. Wide variety in stroke habits and playing skills of different player groups require "customization" of the technology to each group. XIOM divided the various play styles into major groups - European and Asian. Developing the final products into 2 different characters is an outcome of our studies over years. Not only 2 versions vary at the sponge hardness but also by the core characters needed by each group.
