GEWO Rubber Nexxus XT Pro 50 Hard
GEWO Nexxus XT Pro 50 Hard – To break the rules, you must first master them!
The best choice: The rubber series for top players and players who enjoy uncompromising power rubbers. Commitment to continuous improvement, excellent performance and outstanding quality have always been core values of the GEWO tradition.
Most players have already adjusted successfully to the new ABS balls and made the necessary changes to their techniques. At the beginning of this adjustment, players preferred rubbers with rather soft top sheets for more ball rotation and speed, but now top-level players increasingly use hard to very hard rubbers which perform at their best in close-to-the-table power play.
In order to offer the perfect solution at this level, GEWO designers and world-class players, as well as ambitious players of all levels, teamed up in countless test series to find the perfect rubbers for the specific requirements of individual players. The goal was to find the ideal combination of maximum speed, spin and feeling without losing the indispensable level of control required in table tennis.
With the new Nexxus Hard rubbers, GEWO mastered this high-wire act perfectly. With the Nexxus Hard series, we proudly present a range of new and highly interesting rubber alternatives for all players looking for extra performance.
Even more power, more dynamics – Full steam ahead!
The power pack of the Nexxus series with great dynamics and flat trajectories has also received an update in terms of power, catapult effect and feeling. The result is a rubber which leaves nothing to be desired when it comes to speed and attacking power. It is certainly one of the fastest rubbers currently on the market.
However, thanks to FlexTech technology, which provides the rubber with a fine touch and feel, it remains controllable so that you can stay in command even at maximum speed. Powerful, close-to-the-table spin shots will put your opponent under extreme pressure. In mid-distance situations, you can dictate the rally at all times. GEWO Nexxus XT Pro 50 Hard – feel the power of the nexxTT.
Player type / features:
Nexxus XT Pro 50 Hard is the ideal partner for players who prefer a direct and fast playing style
Flat and dangerous trajectories that give your opponent little time to react
Pure dynamics and direct energy transfer for all modern, close-to-the-table stroke techniques
nexxTT / N.E.P. (Nano.Elastic.Plus) / Maxximum.Power.Play.
Due to permanent product adjustments, e.g. the introduction of the new ABS balls, rubbers had to be adjusted accordingly to these trends. The latest ball generation produces less rotation and speed. To compensate for this loss in rotation and speed, you have two options: adjust your technique or your material.
GEWO aims at supporting the necessary physical adjustments with innovative solution approaches: A thin, high-grip top sheet (nexxTT) compensating for the loss in speed and rotation with its inherent dynamics and higher tension (N.E.P.). Plus, a medium-pore, dynamic sponge which, depending on the performance variant chosen (XT → speed; EL → spin), makes the Nexxus Pro Series a real “Energy Monster”, especially in the maXXimum thickness (2.2 mm / 2.3 mm = Maxximum.Power.Play.).
DGC40+ 2.0
One of the factors behind the success of the GEWO HYPE EL / XT / KR rubbers was the innovative DGC40+ top sheet technology. DGC40+ stands for constant, reliable coupling upon ball contact, while the grippy surface prevents the ball from “slipping”.
The introduction of the latest ball generation (e.g. GEWO Select Pro 40+ ***) also calls for further development and adaptation of the top sheets. The result: DGC40+ “Dynamic-Grip-Concept” 2.0. The top sheet was specially developed for and adjusted to the requirements of the latest ball generations. If you don’t go forward, you go backwards!
FlexTech
The flexible sponge/rubber design FLEX-TECH (XT), which was specially developed for GEWO, produces impressive speed. Rubbers from the XT series, combined with the DGC40+ 2.0 top sheet, transform the speed of your opponent's topspins into energy and release this energy again in your own stroke when the ball leaves your bat. The pimple heads in the rubber are arranged at a greater distance from one another, and they are slightly thinner than in EL rubbers. These rubbers primarily focus on speed.
Elastic Rubber
The EL rubber (Elastic Rubber), despite its compactness, provides great ball contact feedback and a unique feel. All rubbers in this series are designed for spin. The pimple heads in the rubber are arranged at a smaller distance from one another, and they are slightly thicker than in XT rubbers.
When it comes to generating spin, the DGC40+ 2.0 top sheet unfolds its true strength – highly reliable coupling and maximum spin – as it provides a slightly larger contact area upon ball contact. Enjoy a new experience!
