DHS Hurricane 8 - 40 Degrees
Hurricane 8 is a new generation of sticky-speed rubber. The rubber keeps a good balance between flexibility and elasticity.

The player can also acquire a high shot speed with weak attack.
Hurricane 8 provides unique spin and unpredictable arc and enhances shot speed significantly, which brings a refreshing feeling for offensive players.
Hurricane 8 is specially designed to enhance the spin and speed of 40+ celluloid-free balls.
Hurricane 8 Mid has slightly softer sponge than Hurricane 8 Hard.

One of the spinniest rubbers I have ever tried after playing for 54 years and testing lot of equipment. No weaknesses at all in any aspect of the game other than possibly fishing shots and passive shots. If I was a young man again, this would be one of the rubbers I play with. It requires strong technique and correct stroke to engage the rubber and release its tremendous potential for spin power and speed. To generate the most spin on serves, you must engage this top sheet and sponge fully.

To me, this is really the best rubber you can get for offensive loopers. Out of box, it is a bit slow, but it has a strong reaction to booster and becomes a real weapon. The control is similar, but maybe slightly worse than H3. The spin is similar to H3. However, the big breakthrough is the overall speed and power. For many who find H3 slow, H8 is quite a bit faster, especially after boosting.
This rubber is really good for both FH and BH. The power and spin/speed ratio is just amazing, and you can overwhelm your opponent with power shots.

I started using H8 because i just wanted to try something other than H3 or H3 neo (commercial), and boy, I must say this rubber is really amazing. Compared to H3 and H3 neo, this rubber was not as powerful, but definitely felt better in almost all other aspects. I love the speed I got from H8, as it enabled longer rallies and fast plays. It is also very durable. I played it for 1.5 years, and it was still tacky. One problem happened was that when i tried to reglue the rubber on another blade, air bubble started appearing on the top sheet. I figured it was time for that rubber, but it was a solid 1.5 years of gameplay (wouldve been more if i didnt decide to switch blades). Overall, I will recommend this to players who want to try chinese rubbers which is faster but less spiny. If you are having difficulty with hurricane 3 because it is very physically demanding, h8 is a good alternative. I must say though, it is alot more difficult to outpower your opponent as well as you would with a h3.

A very specific patch. Out of the box, it is much easier to play than the commercial version of the Hurricane 3, but this does not make it suitable for under-equipped athletes. DHS tried to modernize the H3, and progress is visible, but we are waiting for further developments.

I switched over to H8 on my forehand when it first came out after using h3 neo for quite a while and have not looked back. Like most Chinese rubbers, you need to use a full swing to get the most out of this rubber. It is very easy to vary the spin and speed of your shots and I am often amazed at some of the shots that hit the table with this stuff.
If you like Chinese rubbers, you should give it a shot
