One of the straightest trajectories ever. :D

It's not only the thickness that counts but also the nature of the sponge per se; i.e. is it porous, is it maybe softer and so on.

Is it not the Hurricane H3 by DHS?

It is said that Spinfire in 2.1 mm works farther from the table as well. Your blade should also support that.

1. no 2. yes; the booster will evaporate

I'm sure that simply by the thread opener's post, you already know his shoe size as well. :D

If sweat basically does the trick, have you tried salty mineral water?

You can also place a foil over the sponge to reduce evaporation.

The contrary will be the case as an equilibrium will be established soon between the booster in the sponge and the booster in the atmosphere of the vacuum box.

According to my experience there is just no relation between boosting with/without foil and the degree of tackiness.

I own a Victas Koki Niwa ZC and its surface is so smooth that one could get the impression it is already well sealed.

But is it not that I do want the absorption and the extension of the sponge?

I heard and read about that as well, however, I just don't get the sense of that. You would need to manage to apply an absolute even layer of glue prior to boosting. If the glue layer is not even - but let's say maybe thicker in the middle of the blade - then the effect is that the booster...

Yes
