Material
GEWO Force Series – Dynamics, precision, innovation The success story continues! It all started in 2011 with Force ARC Off and the story is now contin-ued with the new GEWO Force series. New compositions and materials were combined to meet the requirements of modern high-performance table tennis. The composition of the popular Force ARC Off remains unchanged while the blade’s balance has been adapted to the demands made on state-of-the art table tennis blades. In this blade, the GEWO material experts, by using PBO-PC fibre for the very first time in a GEWO blade, have succeeded in creating a unique combination of blade features. A blade composition combining stability, speed and feel to obtain a balanced, fairly soft feel, while providing more than enough power reserves for hard strokes. Too good to be true? Not with GEWO In-Force PBO-PC Off! The special gluing technique combined with the hardness of the new PBO-PC fibre provide for fantastic playing features as regards acceleration and control. A real novelty in the GEWO range of high-end blades. Thanks to the fine Limba outer plies, the blade also provides for longer ball contact and excellent spin ratings. Model Specification Composition: Limba - Limba - PBO-Power-Carbon - Ayous - PBO-Power-Carbon – Limba - Limba Weight: 84 – 87 g
GEWO Rubber Codexx Pro 55 SuperSelect - For uncompromising powerplay The hardest sponge in the GEWO rubber range so far was com¬bined with a tacky-elastic top sheet to develop an ultimate power package with unbelievable attacking strength. Thanks to the successful combination of the advantages of the Codexx and SuperSelect rubber designs, uncompromising attackers will be able to produce flat, spin-loaded, difficult-to-block topspins with dangerous bouncing characteristics on the opponent’s side. With the sophisticated top-sheet / sponge gluing technique used in the production of this rubber, GEWO Codexx Pro 55 SuperSelect is still controllable and elastic enough for powerful, close-to-the-table power attacking with more than enough counter-spin variability. Characteristics: Maximum hardness and speed for uncompromising power-play Hard and precise strokes and vicious spin for players favoring very hard and fast rubbers with slightly tacky top sheet A perfect combination of European and hard Asian rubber designs
GEWO Nexxus SuperSelect - The Pro Player rubbers meeting even the highest requirements. Due to the highly complex production process, these rubbers were only available to the GEWO top contract players until now! SuperSelect stands for carefully selected processing quality, constant playing features and characteristics, and lasting speed and spin ratings. A special gluing and production method ensures that our SuperSelect rubbers meet the high demands by professional players like Quadri Aruna (ranked top 15 in the world) and Alvaro Robles, runner-up world champion in men’s double. Players who can handle the speed and excellent energy transfer will enjoy this new attacking weapon which leaves nothing to be desired. High-speed, spin-loaded attacking and counterattacking will come easy and almost without effort thanks to the two technology innovations Super Select Transmission Tec (SSTT) and Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) which form the basis of GEWO’s new offensive masterpieces. GEWO’s new ProPlayer level high-end rubber for players on their way to the top! GEWO Nexxus EL Pro 53 SuperSelect Warning! High-performance zone – Ready to take the next step? The ultimate choice for your offensive play. Maximum dynamics and speed ratings close to the feasible limit will help you play to your full potential. Workmanship and performance in Select quality. As the first GEWO rubber featuring the combination of our SSTT and OTT technologies, GEWO Nexxus EL Pro 53 SuperSelect is more elastic and flexible than you would expect considering the enormous hardness of its sponge. However, it still provides for ultimate speed, optimum ball contact and maximum spin. Ideal for close-to-the-table power play relying on short and explosive arm action. Player type / features: For attackers aiming at winning quick points using all modern, offensive stroke techniques Maximum catapult, spin and ultimate speed for a rubber of the hard sponge segment Uncompromising OFF power and dynamics for table tennis on Pro Player level Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) The new GEWO Nexxus SuperSelect rubbers are designed to meet even the highest requirements as regards acceleration and stability. Our goal was to develop a more compact sponge texture making the rubber more dynamic and elastic without increasing its weight. The new Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) is the innovative outcome of this development. More elastic air cells in the medium-pore sponge (SuperSelect Sponge Cells) provide for a flexible and dynamic feel despite the hardness and save weight at the same time. As a result, a higher density is reached in the sponge, which not only yields more spin and dynamics but also provides for a longer ball trajectory. Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) is the key for state-of-the art, high-performance table tennis in combination with hard and dynamic sponges. Super Select Transmission Tec (SSTT) Our brand-new Super Select Transmission Tec system (SSTT) stands for optimum transfer of spin and speed onto the ball. The new surface properties enable easy blocking and counterattacking of spin-loaded topspins with a flat ball trajectory avoiding unforced errors. Thanks to the special rubber mixture which guarantees a longer dwell time of the ball, your own topspin attacks still come easy and will present a tough challenge for many of your opponents. DGC40+ 2.0 DGC40+ 2.0 stands for consistent, reliable coupling upon ball contact, and the grippy surface prevents “slipping” of the ball. The introduction of the latest ball generation (e.g. GEWO Select Pro 40+ ***) called for a further development and adaptation of rubber top sheets resulting in the 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! Elastic Rubber The EL rubber (Elastic Rubber), despite its compactness provides for great ball contact feedback and a unique feel. All rubbers of this series are made for spin. The pimple heads in the rubber are arranged at a smaller distance from one another, and they are slightly thicker than in EL 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 for a slightly larger contact area upon ball contact. Enjoy a new experience!

A special gluing and production method ensures that our SuperSelect rubbers meet the high demands by professional players like Quadri Aruna (ranked top 15 in the world) and Alvaro Robles, runner-up world champion in men’s double. Players who can handle the speed and excellent energy transfer will enjoy this new attacking weapon which leaves nothing to be desired. High-speed, spin-loaded attacking and counterattacking will come easy and almost without effort thanks to the two technology innovations Super Select Transmission Tec (SSTT) and Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) which form the basis of GEWO’s new offensive masterpieces. GEWO’s new ProPlayer level high-end rubber for players on their way to the top! GEWO Nexxus EL Pro 53 SuperSelect Warning! High-performance zone – Ready to take the next step? The ultimate choice for your offensive play. Maximum dynamics and speed ratings close to the feasible limit will help you play to your full potential. Workmanship and performance in Select quality. As the first GEWO rubber featuring the combination of our SSTT and OTT technologies, GEWO Nexxus EL Pro 53 SuperSelect is more elastic and flexible than you would expect considering the enormous hardness of its sponge. However, it still provides for ultimate speed, optimum ball contact and maximum spin. Ideal for close-to-the-table power play relying on short and explosive arm action. Player type / features: For attackers aiming at winning quick points using all modern, offensive stroke techniques Maximum catapult, spin and ultimate speed for a rubber of the hard sponge segment Uncompromising OFF power and dynamics for table tennis on Pro Player level Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) The new GEWO Nexxus SuperSelect rubbers are designed to meet even the highest requirements as regards acceleration and stability. Our goal was to develop a more compact sponge texture making the rubber more dynamic and elastic without increasing its weight. The new Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) is the innovative outcome of this development. More elastic air cells in the medium-pore sponge (SuperSelect Sponge Cells) provide for a flexible and dynamic feel despite the hardness and save weight at the same time. As a result, a higher density is reached in the sponge, which not only yields more spin and dynamics but also provides for a longer ball trajectory. Optimized Trajectory Tec (OTT) is the key for state-of-the art, high-performance table tennis in combination with hard and dynamic sponges. Super Select Transmission Tec (SSTT) Our brand-new Super Select Transmission Tec system (SSTT) stands for optimum transfer of spin and speed onto the ball. The new surface properties enable easy blocking and counterattacking of spin-loaded topspins with a flat ball trajectory avoiding unforced errors. Thanks to the special rubber mixture which guarantees a longer dwell time of the ball, your own topspin attacks still come easy and will present a tough challenge for many of your opponents. DGC40+ 2.0 DGC40+ 2.0 stands for consistent, reliable coupling upon ball contact, and the grippy surface prevents “slipping” of the ball. The introduction of the latest ball generation (e.g. GEWO Select Pro 40+ ***) called for a further development and adaptation of rubber top sheets resulting in the 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! Elastic Rubber The EL rubber (Elastic Rubber), despite its compactness provides for great ball contact feedback and a unique feel. All rubbers of this series are made for spin. The pimple heads in the rubber are arranged at a smaller distance from one another, and they are slightly thicker than in EL 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 for a slightly larger contact area upon ball contact. Enjoy a new experience!
