Chen Weixing has applied the knowledge gained from training with young Chinese players. The result is a reasonably priced, well-balanced blade for children with small blade surface and a small handle for a child’s hand. Mahagony Tungwood produces an excellent blade with superb ball feeling for beginners.

Fast Attacking 5 Ply with Hyper Spin Capacity. Ninja of sharp offense and deadly kill.

• Plies: 5
• Weight: 80 ~ 90gm
• Thickness: 5.6mm
  

Close-to-table fast attackers take advantage of speed and timing. This modern offensive style has been the part of legacy among Chinese top players. 5.6mm+/- thin but hard surfaced FUGA flexes well while giving very sold feel. FUGA also has quite sharp and clear feel as the unnecessary noises/vibration was minimized in construction. Hyper class spin is the very distinctive advantage. Together with the fast attack capacity FUGA will become a lethal weapon for the Chinese player. Asian version of TENSOR BIOS rubbers like OMEGA II and ZETA provides a perfect harmony with FUGA.

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.

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.
