External Review for GEWO Codexx EL Pro 52 on January 18, 2024

This rubber is pretty much unplayable on a decent level if not boosted!
I got this rubber because I wanted to get a tacky fast tensor to help me with serve returns. This is not a tensor rubber. I though this rubber is tensor because Lev Katsman uses it, and his style is far away from the table. He must be boosting the crap out of it, or plays with different rubber. It is very very slow. The ball bounces twice and stops.
This is basically a slightly less tackier version of H3, with a slightly different throw angle. VERY tacky, which I like. VERY slow. I have a few Viscarias, and I put Codexx 52 on Viscaria. I normally play with D05 on Viscaria, and when I started looping, my training partner said that it feels spinny, but because it is slow, vs D05 he doesn't have to work as hard to block my shots, doesn't feel that he has to worry about ball going off the table. Tried it on the BH, same thing. Very difficult to miss, but super slow.
I play in a tournament in a few weeks, so don't want to mess with the new rubber, but after the tournament I will try to boost it and test it again. Will keep you posted if I do that.
Overall, I am not saying this is a bad rubber. Just not what I expected at all.

For me this is the best rubber I've ever used. Every time I try to use other rubber now I always go back to Codexx. It has excellent control while giving very good speed. Touch game on receive and serve is a notch above other rubbers and the spin is obviously excellent. The topsheet is sticky and maintains its tack long term. The rubber lasts a long time and is still performing. I am using this on my FH but just ordered it for my backhand as well. If you are looking for a good hybrid rubber look no further. I used to use T05 and now I can't go back because I can just do more with this rubber.

2.0 rated. This was a surprise, and so good i bought 1 directly after second training!
Been testing all the Hybrids for 2 months now, i love them. My favorite, Nittaku Sieger PK 50. Compared to Rakza Z, which i also liked, the lifespan is twice so long for Sieger, spin is better, and it is faster.
But Sieger will be second, (i think) when i test Tibhar Hybrid 3, that many in germanys league use already, so i go for 2.0, 2.3 is way to much for me. i think. By the way, a thick Tibhar Hybrid K1 Europe also good. Stiga Genesis 2 not so good. Tested about15 of these now, and its very funny
