More feel, longer ball contact time and higher spin ratings are the key features of the economic-Tensor rubber GEWO Neoflexx eFT 48. Since the introduction of the new balls, many players have been looking for a new rubber meeting their special requirements: To meet this demand, we developed a new rubber featuring the new DGC40+ surface technology with a grippier surface texture for significantly more adhesion of the ball for more spin - a must-have in modern table tennis. The new pink NEAS sponge provides for sufficient speed in all offensive strokes and was co-developed and thoroughly tested by the exceptional Korean player Yoo Nam Kyu. Thanks to the new pips geometry and the 48° hardness GEWO sponge, the rubber perfectly adjusts to the ball contact thus ensuring power (eSpeed) and grip (DGC40+) in all situations.

Player type / features:
. For dynamic, spin-relying offensive players focusing on topspin attacking but still requiring sufficient control in over-the-table or passive playing situations. The GEWO Neoflexx eFT 48 opens up a whole new dimension of table tennis fun.
. Speed and spin can be varied and controlled just perfectly - the precision of placement is impressive! Great control in serve-and-return situations.
. Ideal for players who would like to try something different than classic rubbers and haven't switched to Tensor yet, but now need more speed and dynamics in their play to cope with the 40+ ball without loosing control and reliability.

eSpeed / eSpin Technology: "eco(nomic) boost for your match" is the motto of this rubber series. This rubber generation is based on a perfect combination of a newly developed sponge with a grippy surface and new pips arrangement. The harder rubbers (45° and 48°) focus on speed (eSpeed) - the softer rubber (40°) on spin. eSpeed / eSpin - perform at your best. GEWO Neoflexx eFT - expect more!
NEAS: "New Efficiency Active System" - unerringly accurate. The newly developed NEAS sponge provides for sufficient speed in all offensive strokes - however, it's control that this series primarily focuses on. Suitable for players of all classes.
DGC40+: The proven DGC40+ "Dynamic Grip Concept" guarantees uniform, reliable coupling of the ball when it hits the bat, its new surface texture prevents the (poly)ball from "slipping" and energy losses when the ball leaves the rubber. The surface was specially developed for and adjusted to the new requirements of the poly ball.

great allround/offensive rubber, very good spin and control, in a slow blade it could be good for a modern defense

Revised because: on this portal the term "tackiness" is defined differently than I have (in the meantime!) learned!!! - accordingly, I gave an "incorrect rating" which may have earned me a "thumbs down". (... you can watch a video, from China, on YouTube!!!) My red rubber (48 degree sponge) weighs only 39 grams at 1.7 mm. (156 x 149 mm) ... but at this thickness it is a little slow and so only suitable for the BH. - but I still really enjoyed it. It is extremely controlled, very spin-friendly and yet insensitive to incoming rotation. ... I would even say that its rotation level is at the top end. AND: the reviews for speed are to low !!! ... and I also find the ball flight curve to be higher than it is generally rated. A good friend of mine, who needs very light material due to a physical limitation, so I let him test my rubber on his blade, on the FH side. He was also impressed, but we both agreed that the thickness should be 1.9 mm. ... so I bought 2 rubbers in black and red with 1,9 mm at the next shop ! :-D) Facts: black rubber, 1.9 mm, 85.2 g. in original packaging, uncut 61.2 g. and cut to 154 x 151 mm only 41 g. Red rubber, 87 g. in original packaging, uncut, 62 g. I play it, glued with solvent-based glue, on my XVT ZL Koto. - as I already wrote, this rubber is perfect for my backhand. On my forehand, I prefer rubbers with a hardness of over 50 degrees, as well as the maximum possible rotation!!! :-P Conclusion: in my opinion, this rubber is truly underrated and has received far too little attention. ... so give him a try! Addendum: this rubber is not sticky and can not hold the ball !!! - but can grab the ball very well to generate a lot of spin. - regarding the weight of rubbers, I repeatedly find that the difference to the next thicker sponge thickness is usually 3 grams (uncut!). ... my black rubber, 2.1 mm thick, weighs 65 g. :-D

Not a spin or speed monster, but high level of control. Red sheet has a bit lower throw and a bit more spin. Blocks and pushes are very easy and safe. Serves are not loaded with lots of spin. Under or top spin does not bother opponent.

I love so much GEWO, but 9.5 in control is too much! And in the other side, 7.4 in speed and the low gears are too low. All these numbers are far from the comparative characteristics numbers of the other backsides released by this same manufacturer ! So I voluntarily very changed these numbers (exaggerating with a very high speed and very gears, and lower control and even lower spin), to restore " if possible " a realistic average and more objectivity is for the compulsive testers of new backsides..
