This rubber is excellent on FH for it has double speeding when it bounces off the your opponent's part of the table. Not recommended on BH for it is not giving high spin even when you fully engage your wrist. This could be said both for pushes and serves. There are many other rubbers more suitable on BH side than this one. I use this rubber 1,9 with Karakasevic carbon blade on FH.

This rubber has the grip and feel of tenergy and for just the fraction of the price. 10/10 recommend
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.
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.
