Customer review for DHS Hurricane 3 Neo - 39 Degrees

External Review for DHS Hurricane 3 Neo on June 15, 2011

very high throw rubber. First loop is very easy and very spinny, second loop is very hard , likely to go off the table. suitable for mid distance player. The throw is too high for close to table players. So if this happens to you, (first loop ok but second loop off the table), try Hurricane 8 or tg2 neo, or even H2 neo. ---Nowadays H3N can be found in hardness 38, 39 , 40, and 41. I suggest 39 strongly. 39 is still very hard. 40 is rock hard and will be slower, or needs 3 layers of booster. Also , 40 won't pair with a hard blade such as Viscaria. 39 pairs very well with it. 38 is ok for backhand or even for forehand if you don't boost. 41 is useless unless you are a pro and boost with 3-4 layers. ---short receive is excellent, but this is true of all rubbers: H3, Tg2, Tg3, H2, H8. ---Let me summarize the throw angles (= arcs) of these rubbers: H2N: very low. TG2N: low. (almost exactly like 729 superfx, or 729 bloom power). H8: medium-low. TG3N: medium. H3N: very high.---- So now you can choose the arc you need. close to table, advanced => h2. close to table, intermediate: h8 or tg2. close to table, beginner: tg3. mid distance, advanced: tg3. mid distance: h3.------ H3N needs at least one layer of booster or you will injure your shoulder. baby oil also works. This is true of all dhs rubbers including h8.---on backhand: the 38 version is very good for flip (you lift everything) and for opening loop (incredibly spinny), but if they block to your bh, the throw will be so high you are likely to shoot the next shot off the table. So, for bh I suggest much lower throw (tg2N for example, or even H2N).
