Speed	/
Spin	/
Tensor $<b>Tensor Rubber</b> - Tensor rubbers have a pre-tensioned rubber topsheet, already pulled tighter so it has some built in catapult effect to increase speed and spin. Normal rubbers don\'t have extra tension.$	Yes

From community:

Speed	9.4
Spin $<b>Spin</b> is the amount of ball rotation generated by the rubber. This is affected by the rubber\'s tackiness, sponge thickness, sponge hardness as well as the blade\'s flexibility.$	9.0
Control	8.8
Tackiness $<b>Tackiness</b> refers to the level of stickiness of the rubber surface. Traditional Chinese rubbers are usually tacky enough to lift a ball off the table by pressing the rubber on top of the ball, whereas traditional European and Japanese rubbers do not.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Very tacky</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Tacky</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium tacky</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Slightly tacky</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Completely non-tacky</td></tr></table>$	0.7 - Completely non-tacky
Throw Angle $<b>Throw Angle</b> is the angle that the ball is projected from strokes like the loop. For a topspin loop, a high throw angle will lift the ball higher. Tacky rubbers often have a higher throw angle. <br><br><b>Note: This rating refers to the topspin strokes only.</b> On an underspin chop, the same rubber with a high throw angle will actually produce a very low angle on a chop (it is reversed). This rubber should still be rated as high throw since the rating refers to topspin.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>9+</td><td>Very high</td></tr><tr><td>7 - 9</td><td>High</td></tr><tr><td>5.5 - 7</td><td>Medium-high</td></tr><tr><td>3.5 - 5.5</td><td>Medium</td></tr><tr><td>1.5 - 3.5</td><td>Medium-low</td></tr><tr><td>Under 1.5</td><td>Low</td></tr></table>$	3.0 - Medium-low
Weight	4.0 - Average
Sponge Hardness $<b>Sponge Hardness</b> refers to the density of the sponge. This is measured in degrees:<table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td><td>Degrees</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Hard</td><td>45+ degrees</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Medium Hard</td><td>43-44 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium</td><td>41-42 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Medium Soft</td><td>38-40 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Soft</td><td>under 37 degrees</td></tr></table>$	7.7 - Medium-hard
Gears $<b>Gears</b> refers to a rubber\'s ability to produce a wide range of speeds. A rubber with a wide range of speeds (many gears) can produce slow speeds (on gentle strokes) and high speeds (on hard strokes). With few gears, you may always produce fairly slow balls, or always produce fairly fast balls on lighter and harder strokes.$	7.0 - Above average gears
Durability	6.5 - Lasts longer than average
Consistency	9.0
Overall	8.4 4.2

Reviews of the Xiom Omega 3 Asian

DeVoured said this on September 21, 2008:

Very hard Sponge, very good for blocking, top spins and chops.
If you look for precision, this is the rubber you need. Top spins have a low throw angle and are fast. Blocks are no problem because of the throw angle

Great rubber from Xiom. Generates heavy spin, is good for blocking(very consistant) and flat hitting. Serves are fairly spinny(like shriver) and net play/shot game is excellent. It probably plays a little slower than Sriver glued up but is just as spinny.
On the down side, as with all the tension rubbers or speed glue effect rubbers, the price is a bit much.
All in all a quality rubber.

Great rubber!!!!
I have a Xiom OIII on my Sardius and the combination turns out to be amazing: a fast blade with a soft and precise rubber! If you are an aggressive attacker with forehand, this may not be ideal, because of the time the ball stick with the rubber is relatively long. If you decide to use it as a backhand, hitting and blocking is very good (topspin may require some extra force).

The lifespan of the rubber is also very long. I am an active player and I have been using it for 6 months, with negligible degrading.
The only problem with this rubber is that it is extremely difficult to remove the glue since the backside is so soft. Do it with a pingpong ball, not your finger, please! Only reglue when it nearly falls off the blade, because a thick layer of glue may result in poor performance and shorter lifespan.

A wise choice!

This is a good rubber unless it is not very durable

I am a hard hit playing style even close or mid range to the table. This one is my favorite FH rubber sheet

Both rubber surface and selected sponge are completely tuned and perfectly functioning, providing a fast bullet velocity while the underneath sponge also engineer a perfect control, all I can feel when playing with Asia-OMGIII.

Smashing and spinning from the distance are also well performed, but sometimes players may get acquaintance with optimal swing and stroke required at the first place.

I love this one and it's my extreme.
