help Gewo Hype KR Pro 47.5 FAQ

Is GEWO Hype KR Pro 47.5 bowling equipment?

No. It is an inverted table-tennis rubber for gluing to a racket blade; descriptions calling it a bowling-lane inspection roller are incorrect.

What does 47.5 mean in Hype KR Pro 47.5?

The number identifies the sponge's approximate hardness on the European scale. A 47.5-degree sponge is medium-hard and is aimed at offensive players who can generate their own acceleration.

Who helped develop the GEWO Hype KR Pro series?

GEWO says the rubber was developed in cooperation with South Korean table-tennis legend Yoo Nam Kyu. He won the men's singles gold medal at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.

What style of play suits Hype KR Pro 47.5?

It is designed for spin-heavy offensive strokes, including powerful topspin close to the table and from mid-distance. Less experienced players may find its medium-hard sponge more demanding than a softer rubber in the low-40-degree range.
