Rubber GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT Pro 55
With a 55° PowerCell Core sponge, a slightly tacky HXT-Tack surface, and FlexTech 3.0 technology, it delivers an exceptionally direct feel, explosive finishing shots, and stable control even at the highest tempo of the game.
The Hardest Hybrid Rubber for Maximum Power, Extreme Spin, and Top-Spin-Ready Counter-Topspin
GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT Pro 55 is a top-tier table tennis hybrid rubber designed for players who want to play without compromises – fast, aggressive, direct, and with maximum spin.
The GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT series combines the advantages of Chinese lightly-tacky upper surfaces with European dynamic sponge. The aim is to create a rubber that offers exceptional ball grip, high spin values, explosive energy transfer, and stability even in modern high-velocity play.
The HXT Pro 55 variant is the hardest in the series. It is intended for ambitious offensive players, competitors, and counter-topspin specialists who need maximum stability in fast exchanges. The 55° PowerCell Core sponge enables an extremely direct energy transfer, high speed, and powerful finishing shots with deep penetration.
The slightly tacky HXT-Tack Surface guarantees strong ball grip and longer contact with the rubber. Despite the harder sponge, the surface ensures the feel is not too stiff, but remains clear, controlled, and usable even in demanding spin shots.
In the first topspin against backspin, the rubber provides a high arc, strong rotation, and reliable ball lift. In topspin against topspin, its greatest advantage comes to the fore – stability at speed. The rubber reliably grips the ball, holds it steadily, and enables aggressive counter-topspin even against strong attacking strokes from the opponent.
The PowerCell Core technology ensures an explosive catapult effect on topspins and finishing shots. The optimized cell structure stores energy on contact and releases it at the right moment, allowing extremely penetrating shots from close to the table and at mid-range.
For precision and a stable response, FlexTech 3.0 ensures better cooperation between the top surface and the sponge. The result is a more accurate short game, more predictable blocks, stable rebound, and better control even in very aggressive play.
GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT Pro 55 is the ideal choice for players seeking the highest level of speed, spin, and stability, who have enough technique and power to unleash the rubber’s full potential.

HXT-Tack Surface – precision, spin in notably longer ball contact
Newly developed HXT-Tack Surface ensures amazing grip and longer contacts with the ball with rubber. Slightly sticky top surface intensively grabs the ball, which ensures high rotation value at serve, opening the game and topspin strikes.
This technology enables the player to make safe counter-topspins with high flight curve and stable trajectory even at high speeds. The ball can be actively lead, precisely steered and placed on wanted places on the table.
HXT-Tack Surface performs particularly well at the first topspin towards the bottom spin. The ball fully lifts, penetrates deeper into the upper surface and creates high, powerful rotation and safe trajectory. Despite this, the feeling in the game stays clear and precise – without soft, unclear response, but a direct and controlled feedback.
PowerCell Core / PCC – explosive catapult effect and maximal rebound for an offensive game
In the center of the rubber is the new PowerCell Core sponge with optimized cell structure. Its task is to effectively save all the energy at ball contact and to release it at the right moment. Resulting in higher speed, strong attacking energy and ideal feel at topspin game.
In practice, this means:
- stronger finishing hits with more penetration,
- dynamic acceleration at short distance games,
- constant efficiency even at high rate of strikes,
- stable counter-rotation at fast exchanges.
The strength of the sponge especially shows at counter-topspin. The ball penetrates deeper into the rubber, safely lingers on the surface and then rebound with a lot of energy – without notable control loss. This allows for strong, aggressive counter-topspins even against hard and powerful rotated strikes of the opponent.
FlexTech 3.0 – precision in every game situation
Extra technology FlexTech 3.0 takes care of perfect cooperation between the upper surface and the sponge. Flexibility at contact increases sensitivity for spin and supports optimal ball rotation, and inner stability ensures precise, linear and predictable response.
Resulting in:
- great control in a short game,
- precise ball placement at blocks and counter strikes,
- high safety for passive strikes,
- clearly defined ball rebound without unpleasant surprises.
Specifically in the modern game with high speed GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT offers a rare combination of aggression and control. The rubber ensures an offensive game with a lot of rotation and power, while preserving enough precision for the player, for a short game, vlock, counter-topspin and ball placement.
