When our sport changes due to new rules, such as plastic balls, you can either try to adapt your technique or your equipment to the new playing characteristics. The easier option is certainly to change the material. The Gewo Nexxus XT 48 is a modern attacking rubber for topspin players, which is precisely tailored to the new generation of plastic balls.
The composition of the rubber is decisive for these optimised playing characteristics. The top rubber is relatively thin and features the very grippy nexxTT surface with DGC40+ 2.0 technology, which ensures consistently good coupling at the point of impact. Compared to EL rubbers, the pimples on the top rubber are slightly narrower and slightly further apart, which results in high tension and a dynamic surface. The other component of the rubber is a medium-pored, 48° hard sponge, which is responsible for the enormously high basic speed. But what makes the rubber special is the combination of sponge and top rubber, the so-called Flex-Tech.
This enables the high spin and acceleration potential, which ultimately compensates for the disruptive loss of speed and rotation of the plastic balls. The Flex-Tech also ensures excellent energy transfer, which means that the dynamics of the opponent's racket can be very effectively converted into energy and passed on.
In play, the rubber is characterised by a relatively direct ball impact and a flat trajectory. Together with the strong catapult effect, this allows particularly dynamic topspins to be played at the table or from half distance. The grippy top rubber also offers you the opportunity to surprise your opponent with sensitive cuts and spins on serves and returns. Safe and precise block shots are also no problem. This makes the Gewo Nexxus XT 48 the ideal rubber for all modern and ambitious attacking players.
