DHS NEO Hurricane 3 Provincial (Orange Sponge)

A very tacky, spinny, hard Chinese rubber that can be used by beginners all the way to the professional level. Not that heavy. The tacky rubber along with aggressive brush strokes can produce unmatched spin on loops. It's lack of catapult or bounciness also makes it great for serving and pushes. However it's extreme grip can also make serve returns more challenging if you misread the spin as it is very spin sensitive. Unboosted it's a great rubber to learn to loop with along with a flexible all wood blade. Boosted with Haifu Seamoon (my recommendation) it becomes a powerful mid distance looping tool to compete with Tenergy 05 at the advanced and Pro levels. If you want to try a Chinese rubber to compare against the Euro/Jap tensors try this one. I'd recommend for use on the FH side with a softer and faster Euro rubber on the BH.

I've used various versions of Hurricanes 3 NEO for at least past 4 years. At first, I've used on both FH and BH, but after getting some training from the Chinese National Team (B Team) and talked to them in Mandarin, I learnt a lot about the various versions of H3N. It is definitely a FH rubber. H3N is generally a harder rubber with hardness from 39 degree to 41 degree. It is suitable for FH as we can dictate the power and get more direct hit with various speed of top-spin and generate awesome Chinese loops. There is a significant difference between the provincial edition and domestic (sold in China only) or international edition. I feel that it is softer and allow more control and also spinnier. Now, the provincial also has a 38 degree sponge option, and goes as high as 41 degree. I personally like the 38 degree as it is more forgiving than 39 degree yet still has great speed. I still remember the feeling upgrading from a domestic H3N to a provincial H3N. As I play 3 to 4 times a week on average, this provincial H3N lasted me about 3 months of prime condition, any days afterwards performance degraded back to regular H3N or any older rubbers.

Using 39 degree on my Tibhar samsanov force pro black edition ..( will work even better on carbon blades) ..Perfect forehand rubber ....medium speed hence I can hit my forehand with full swing knowing it won't miss the table ..spin is great ( top spin and side spin is vicious )..control is superb .. provincial rubber is lighter than commercial ..the bat doesn't feel as heavy as my commercial version setup ..chops are low ..push are easy to control ..blocking is easy just let me ball come to you and it gets easily blocked ...needs lot of forearm and leg strength to hit topspin but u get reward for it .Also flat Hits and flip kills are really good if u practice them ..service is done properly can give really good spin and u can keep them low initially for 12 to 15 hours ,rubber is hard and tacky and tough to play ..you will lose many games ..after 12 to 15 hours rubber becomes soft and tackyness becomes less and then it's true potential is released and it becomes unstoppable ..No need to apply any booster or anything...Try it once ...Provincial >>commercial ..Its 50 percent more expensive than commercial but totally worth it if u have patience ,strong forearms and legs and knees ..

Very good rubber, better than commercial version . It's lighter and faster also spin is better than commercial h3 neo. Best thing is the throw angle is much better on the provincial h3 neo. However the review based on one using Chinese style loop or some one with good technic who can spin with high speed and can engage sponge properly when needed. By the way review is for unboosted h3 neo provincial 38 degree. Couldn't wait to boost it soon! Just imagine, edit with boosted a different beast maybe 30% better huge improvement.

Boa borracha para todos os niveis, principalmente para ajudar no desenvolvimento do atleta. Gira muito, um pouco lenta, saque incrivel, nao é afetada pelo giro do oponente.
