Customer review for XIOM Vega Japan

External Review for XIOM Vega Japan on October 30, 2016

Recently I discovered two great FH rubbers: Xiom Vega PRO and Vega Japan (MAX thickness). Vega PRO is perhaps the best rubber I played with, but it is a bit too fast (some balls go out of the table easily). Vega Japan is a bit slower, just enough for landing more balls on the table. Excellent spin, very good speed in attack (spiny FH and smashes), yet very good control on service receiving and on blocking. So, no complaints whatsoever! Vega Japan shines on an OFF+ blade (Joola Wing Passion Extreme). BH is at charge of a Joola Phoenix MAX rubber, which does the job very well.

So, as others pointed out, this rubber is grossly underrated at the current grade of 8.7 (it is quite better than Vega Euro, graded with 9.3, which seems a bit "dead" when compared with Vega Japan, IMHO).
