The first 2 days the rubber was medium hardness with good spin. The 3rd day the rubber got very firm, I could'nt get the ball to sink into the topsheet, the spin was less. Looping underspin became more difficult. The rubber is fast. On the 4th day, I cleaned the rubber and it got back spinny. It takes time to learn how to play with this rubber.

GEWO Nexxus XT Pro 48
by Gewo
· Part of GEWO Nexxus Rubber Series
The GEWO Nexxus XT is a powerful modern day offensive table tennis sponge designed for the high spin, and power play of today's professional table tennis game. This rubber is engineered to produce high performance of the new ABS 40+ ball. The Power Package of the Nexxus series Maximum dynamics and a flat trajectory combined with enormous catapult effect are the prime features of this modern day offensive rubber. FLEX-TEC technology provides for maximum speed, while the DGC40+ 2.0 top sheet guarantees consistent and reliable coupling when the bat hits the ball., especially if used with maximum sponge thickness of 2.3mm. This power package unfolds all its power and energy potential. Despite the speed and dynamics of the 48° hard sponge, GEWO Nexxus XT Pro 48 provides for astonishing feel, thanks to its grippy top sheet, and unbelievable reliability for passive strokes used in modern serve/return situations, blocking and flips. Features: • Flat and direct trajectory characterize this power package. Ideal for modern attackers relying on dynamic, speed-focused, close-to-the-table and mid-distance topspin playing. Due to the arrival of the new ABS 40+ ball into international competitive play, rubber top sheets had to be adjusted accordingly to maximize new performance demands from the professional player. 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 the loss in speed and rotation with its inherent dynamics and higher tension. Combined with a medium-pore, dynamic sponge which, depending on the performance variant chosen (XT for speed or EL for spin), makes the Nexxus Pro Series your choice for the best energy transfer possible. Speed: 126
• Attacking rubber with optimized speed and catapult features, unfolding its full strength and power when taking it to the limit.
• Uncompromising attacking power!
Control: 90
Spin: 123
Hardness: Medium Hard Euro 48.3, Japan 35.5

Reviews of GEWO Nexxus XT Pro 48 (10)
Great rubber Even though it is not fully my rubber because the sponge is harder and you have to work for spin. Even after 6 months the grip is more than anything else. Smashing is great. Grip and lifting is great. You have to brush/rotate more for spin as the sponge doesnt engage as easily as some medium hard rubbers. Durability is best for all new type rubbers that I have had.
It is actually an exceptional rubber and I am trying to comprehend it right now. So far I understand that if I get the sponge engaged and have the ball bite into it, everything is easy with this rubber, so far I use too much of the brushing action to be engaged in consistent looping with this rubber but it does provide a nice artistic trajectory, control with normal backhand shots are also exceptional. Overall truly amazing backhand rubber and surely suits top-level needs, used 2.1 mm red on reverse penhold backhand
Its a good rubber, but certainly not for me. Either Im not that good to play it, or it just doesnt suit my playstyle (spin game). In my opinion its for people, who like to hit harder, and are good enough in generating spin because the ball doesnt sink in the topsheet, and the dwell time is pretty short (compared to for example tenergy 05).
Very good rubber that makes the nexxus series the most durable sponge. Good on both sides.
Use it on BH of my Tibhar Cedric Nuytinck blade for about 1.5 month now... It's really great with 40+ ABS balls, with which is overall not easy to create much spin, but somehow with this rubber it really becomes easier to generate spin with this balls, also the trajectory is tends to be quite low, espessially close to the table, so it's really not comfortable for your opponent... It's show it's best qualities close to the table, "bananas", flicks are just amazing, blocks are also fantastic and precise. Far from a table it's also plays quite nice, but you have to have at least OFF blade and put quite some power to your shot so that your topspin will be dangerous for your opponent...
All above is about BH, for me this rubber is too soft for FH, but it maybe only my own issues, I just like quite hard rubbers on FH, so I tried GEWO Nexxus XT PRO 48 on my FH about a week ago and so far like it very much, really great for my FH (for BH for me it's a bit too hard, but main issue it's too fast for my BH, IMHO it's much faster than it's EL "brother")...

Really nice OFF rubber! You don't feel the 48 thanks to the thin topsheet. It's very stable. Not the fastest, nor spinniest, but a mix of qualities that implies great confidence while using it. Maybe one of the most balanced recent rubber.
Edit: After few hours, the spin increased! I can impart as much spin on my serve as with a T05! Great rubber from Gewo!
Give it a try, really.

blade was a custom made Limba-Ayous-Basalt-Ayous, rated OFF-. Rubber was Max Black.
Overall this was a fun easy to use rubber with a focus on players who use the sponge to generate spin rather then brushing. I used on my forehand for the test and loved its fast quick response very suitable to make odd off the cuff shots. Since I am use to Tenergy 05 I brush and that was OK for serves but a problem for lifting backspin which required more sponge engagement then I was used to providing. This is a great rubber if you like to engage the sponge for spin.
