The Official Ball of the German Championships
GEWO Ball Ultra SLP 40+***
Measured by ZEISS. Extremely durable. Developed for the highest demands in competition.
Starting now and for the next three years, the GEWO Ball Ultra SLP 40+*** will be used at numerous national championships and tournaments of the German Table Tennis Association (DTTB).
From juniors to seniors, from the German Cup Championships of the regional leagues to the German Table Tennis Finals: the GEWO Ultra SLP 40+*** is used at numerous major competitions in German table tennis.
Where the GEWO Ball Is Played
- German Table Tennis Finals in Erfurt: Women and men, performance classes, Under 19, Under 15 and seniors
- German Team Championships: Under 19, Under 15 and seniors
- National Ranking Tournaments: Under 19, Under 15 and Under 13
- Germany Cup: Under 15, Under 13 and Seniors 60
- German Cup Championships of the Regional Leagues
From the First Rally to the National Title
GEWO has been part of the DTTB family since July 2025 and supports the DTTB Schnuppermobil, a mobile taster programme that has been inspiring children, schools and clubs to take up table tennis for more than 25 years.
With the GEWO Ball Ultra SLP 40+*** as the official competition ball of numerous national championships and tournaments, this commitment is consistently continued: from the first contact with table tennis to match point for a national title.
Precision You Can Measure
The GEWO Ball Ultra SLP 40+*** was developed for consistent and reliable playing characteristics at the highest level. State-of-the-art manufacturing processes, high-quality ITTF-compliant poly material and a seamless construction form the basis for its high quality and durability.
How precisely the balls are manufactured has also been examined through metrology. ZEISS engineers measured GEWO Ultra SLP balls without contact, using the ZEISS COMET L3D 2 3D sensor and the ZEISS Metrotom 800 computed tomography system.

40.32–40.36 mm Diameter of the balls tested ITTF specification: 40.00–40.50 mm |
0.08–0.14 mm Maximum form deviation |
0.08 mm Average wall thickness deviation |
The GEWO balls tested had diameters between 40.32 mm and 40.36 mm. The range specified by the ITTF is between 40.00 mm and 40.50 mm.
The measurements also show high manufacturing precision in terms of shape and wall thickness: the maximum form deviation was just 0.08 to 0.14 mm, and the average wall thickness deviation only 0.08 mm.
Precision that is not just promised, but made measurable.
Developed for Competition and Training
If you play with a particular ball under competition conditions, you benefit from training with the same playing characteristics. Bounce, ball feel and trajectory become familiar – and it is exactly this reliability that can make the difference in decisive moments.
That is why the GEWO Ball Ultra SLP 40+*** is available in various pack sizes – from small packs to bulk cartons for clubs, training centres and regular league play.

GEWO Ball Ultra SLP 40+ *** 3-pack: The official ball of the German National Championships. Measured by ZEISS. Extremely durable. Best value in its class. Starting now and for three years (2026 to 2029), the GEWO Ball Ultra SLP 40+*** is the official ball of the national championships and tournaments of the German Table Tennis Association (DTTB), from the German National Championships and the youth National Ranking Tournaments to the Germany Cup (Deutschland-Pokal). Whether U13 or over-60s, regional league or national elite: German table tennis relies on a ball that responds the same way with every touch. The ball is made exclusively from high-quality, ITTF-compliant poly material. It is seamless and produced using state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and the engineering expertise of German material specialists (Designed by German Experts). A thorough selection during production ensures optimised roundness and hardness for an absolutely consistent bounce. And that can be measured, not just claimed: engineers from ZEISS measured the GEWO Ultra SLP balls without contact, using the ZEISS COMET L3D 2 3D sensor and the ZEISS Metrotom 800 computed tomography system. The test included a direct comparison with two established competitor brands with seams. The result: all GEWO balls tested ranged between 40.32 mm and 40.36 mm in diameter (ITTF specification: 40.00–40.50 mm), with a maximum form deviation of just 0.08 to 0.14 mm. Wall thickness is crucial for durability and a consistent bounce throughout play, and here the average deviation is only 0.08 mm, about the thickness of a human hair. The bottom line: the ITTF-approved premium competition ball with the best value for money in its class, for everyone for whom every point counts.
