combines the latest technological innovations for maximum performance.
The top layer with a slightly sticky texture provides exceptional spin, while the dynamic surface enables explosive speed and an outstanding feel during play. This rubber is ideal for aggressively oriented players who rely on strong topspins and precise hits from mid-distance or when playing very close to the table.
This is a dual-tension rubber with X-Factor, which does not require a booster for dual tension, as it is already built in. This was enabled by the use of artificial intelligence. The A.I. TECH technology, where artificial intelligence was used to adjust parameters to introduce a new approach by coordinating the shape of the pips with the thickness of the sponge, creating an NIF sponge with ultra-slow elasticity.
It is a 2IN1 Litemax rubber, lighter than Jekyll&Hyde, which becomes evident in play near the table and during intense exchanges.
Omega 8 Pro offers a perfect balance between power and control, making it an excellent choice for competitive players who want to upgrade their game.

This technology was enabled by artificial intelligence. Chinese gluable rubber offers great control on short distances because of its hard sponge and gluable surface. But the use of this rubber weakens the balls, hit far away from the table. To replace these deficiencies, players use amplifiers, that strengthen the rubbers tension at strikes from a distance.
The so named 'FACTOR X' is the key factor of the Chinese dominance over table tennis. February of 2024 the ITTF introduced regulation for gradual prohibition of amplifier use. They developed Jekyll & Hyde C55.0. This is the first rubber with double tension (dual tension) with X-Factor, which doesn’t need the booster of dual tension because it is already integrated. This was enabled by the use of artificial intelligence.
Top-tier equipment for players on national level often demand higher weight. The best players, that through years of training developed muscles, specific for table tennis, actually prefer using heavier and stronger rubbers. The weight brings balance and stability, which is key, especially at high-speed swings.
But the use of lighter equipment has its advantages. Especially for games close to the table, excessive weight can present as an obstacle at more precise strikes and game control. OMEGA 8 is a product that lessened weight on the basis of the rubber JEKYLL & HYDE. This new experience will highly benefit with an offensive game close to the table an in intensive strike exchanges.
