Amazing rubber but the tackiness is gone after some sessions. Although the rubber is still good, the tackiness is lost very quickly and it is harder to generate spin when there is no tackiness, and it might feel dead compared to rubbers like tenergy. The hard and dense sponge makes the ball fly away quickly without the tackiness. Unless you have solid technique and can do powerful strokes, you wont be able to play without tackiness. Overall this is an amazing rubber packed with speed and spin, and if you are able to release its potential to the fullest, it is definitely worth its price

Blade: Butterfly Viscaria
FH: Hurricane 3 Provincial 39 Degree 2.2mm
BH: Skyline 2 Neo 39 Degree 2.15mm

I picked this sheet up from Megaspin and used it for around a year on this setup . This is by far the best forehand rubber I have used so far . It plays similar to the commercial Neo version of Hurricane but is better in terms of speed and spin . The most noticeable difference is the AMAZING catapult effect you get when you brush the ball. If you notice with Chinese rubbers, if a solid contact is achieved , you will see the rubber hit the opponents side of the table and then immediately speed up , making it hard for the opponent to react . This is certainly evident with this rubber . Against chops and backspin, this rubber does superbly. I would say this rubber EXCELS actually from a mid distance , since the catapult effect coupled with the spin make the rubber harder to keep on the table close distance . The only downside of the rubber is its durability. For the first 10 or so sessions , this rubber performed amazing , but dropped considerably after that . I have another setup with just the H3Neo commercial that I've been using for even longer than this and it still retains its spin and speed . This rubber after 20 sessions is dead though, average spin and speed. If you run your finger across the top sheet, it slides across now , compared to holding your finger in place due to the tack.

Overall, definitely still my favourite rubber for FH, but due to the durability issues, I decided it more feasible to use a boosted H3 Neo commercial . If not for the durability , I would rate this 9 like the Commercial H3 Neo . Still a game changing rubber ! Recommend !

Been playing with DHS H3 provincial version for quite some time. The sponge is orange #20 sponge and hardness is 41 degrees. It has 6 edges compared to 8 edges (commercial) and 4 edges (National). The sponge is also available in 38,39 and 40 degrees. Spin is very heavy but this is ependent on the blade you use and its properties.
I am currently using the H3 (2.2mm) on my forehand with Dr Neubauer Killer 1.5mm (Backhand) on Joola Kool Blade. The blade is a balsa composite with texalium, pine and limba and is 10mm thick in total. So definitely there is plenty of power and also nice touch on passive shots. The spin from the forehand is very strong and flat hitting and driving is extremely good. I must stress that it is the blade and its properties that influence how the rubbers will play and not the other way. So its important to pair up your equipment which suits your style.

Gave to a friend who likes hurricane rubber. He boosted it and felt it played too similar to hurricane 3 commercial boosted to justify the price.

I enjoy playing with this rubber. Everything suits me. Use on rosewood 5 blade. On other blades the speed is not enough or hard to loop.

My favorite DHS rubber. You can do everything with it and honestly when you try it you know why the Chinese top players use H3, this rubber is just great, you can block very well, loop as hell, serve with lot of spin and also chop the ball with great control. I had the best top to top rallies with this rubber.

This is one of the best Chinese rubbers that I've used. The speed is enough, even if you make a slight hit with the ball on its tacky topsheet, to win your opponent due to heavy spin that this rubber can generate. Chopping with this rubber is also amazing but not as good compared with 729's higher & faster. When playing far from the table, player will be needing additional effort to throw back the ball on the opponent's side as this rubber is a bit dead due to its medium hard sponge. I used this rubber with my Yinhe T11 stiff blade where the blade increases the control feeling of the rubber.

I play this rubber on a Stiga AC blade on FH. This rubber does everything I can do well. It brush loops very well, defensively is very strong. Like someone else said, it will work for many different levels of players. The control/speed ratio is very impressive.

There is a huge difference between provincial and normal h3. The provincial is more consistent and longer lasting.
If you use booster, it becomes pretty fast. It is spinny as hell, works for all shots and puts lots of other rubbers to shame. You can do anything with it, flick, loop over the table, chop, serve like mad.
Btw Wang Hao uses Skyline tg3 with blue sponge.

Not really any difference with the normal h3 dhs rubber or the provincial one. It just basically has better quality, if only just. Onknown, the provincial rubber sponge is blue, and Wang Hao uses dhs g666 for his forehand and a butterfly rubber for his backhand.

I use this rubber for my backhard. It's really amazing when you use this for chopping and blocking, very reliable.
I highly recommend this to my brother and my friends there in Ginatilan because this is also affordable.

this was my second choice of chinese rubbers, the first being 729-2 sensor. hurricane III provided the control needed...I have never speed glued.
My style: very fast and offensive. i win with quickness and placement at the table...this rubber is definitely for over the table play, return of serve, service, and counter-driving. unless placed on a off+ blade may be too slow for traditionally fast attacking offensive players or mid-distance topspin play; very durable and cost effective. the rubber surface tends to react (tackiness) with the environment you're playing in, the more condensation within the area, the more trouble your opponent will have with your spin. it is a rubber for a thinking player, slight adjustments have to be made to your strokes depending on your opponents style of play. if your considering a good overall rubber with durability, great speed and a learning curve that con progess with your play, without experimenting with numerous sheets of rubber - hurricane III is it.

Slightly biased as it is the forehand rubber of my choice. Hurricane 3 is a classic Chinese rubber: Tacky topsheet, hard sponge. The provincial versions offer higher quality control.

Good service, good service return, looping, counter-looping is all excellent. However, fast swing speed is a must.
