GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT Pro 50 is a high-performance table tennis hybrid rubber, developed for ambitious offensive players who want to play fast, aggressively, and with a lot of spin.
The GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT series combines the advantages of Chinese slightly tacky top surfaces with European dynamic pips. The result is a rubber that offers strong ball grip, high spin values, explosive catapult, and a stable feel even in high-tempo play.
The HXT Pro 50 variant is harder and more direct than the HXT Pro 48 model. It is intended for players with a more active swing, who create their own speed and want more penetrating performance in topspin and counter-topspin. The 50° PowerCell Core sponge enables powerful energy transfer into the ball, making the rubber a great choice for aggressive topspins, fast attacks, and finishing shots.
The slightly tacky HXT-Tack Surface surface allows longer ball contact with the rubber and exceptional grip on serves, the first topspin, and spin games. When opening the rally against backspin, the ball grips well, lifts with a high arc, and enables a safe yet very dangerous topspin.
In counter-topspin, GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT Pro 50 shows its true strength. The harder sponge and stable hybrid surface enable aggressive return of strong topspin shots without losing control. The ball penetrates deeply into the rubber, reliably grips, and then returns toward the opponent with great energy.
The FlexTech 3.0 technology ensures precise coordination between the top surface and the sponge. Therefore, despite high speed and an attacking character, the rubber maintains clear feedback, stable rebound, and good control in short play, blocks, and ball placement.
GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT Pro 50 is the ideal choice for players seeking a more attacking, faster, and more direct version in the Iconixx Hybrid HXT series – a rubber for strong topspins, aggressive counter-topspin, and finishing points at a higher level.

Looking for the right balance between hardness, speed, and control? In our guide, we compared all four versions of the GEWO Iconixx Hybrid HXT Pro to make choosing the right rubber easier.
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.
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:
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.
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:
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.
