  2. Hurricane 3 OS unboosted break-in period

    People who boost with three layers without any experience with H3 or boosting are indeed a bit crazy (and obviously have a lot of time and resources). Yet, there's a simple guide for newcomers with H3 - try the rubber without booster first, and then, if needed, start with just one layer. Some...
  3. Hurricane 3 OS unboosted break-in period

    It seems like your rubber might be too soft for boosting at 39 degrees. I currently have an unboosted H3 40 OS on my forehand, and I still feel like the ball flies quite effortlessly. I only experience the dead feeling with overly passive blocks. I'm quite curious about how an unboosted H3 41...
  4. Hurricane 3 OS unboosted break-in period

    Haha. Who would've thought that patience and time would be so crucial for just one layer of boosting? Doesn't take much time at all, except for the 12-24 hours waiting period for it to dry. Are table tennis players these days really that impatient?
  5. Hurricane 3 OS unboosted break-in period

    Interesting. I was actually slightly disappointed. But it's not that is matters anyhow. Lifting the ball with the rubber is just so cool. I think so too. Today I played another 4 hours. I guess the rubber is doing what it should be doing. Anyways, I am going to slightly boost my Hurricane.

    I have a kettlebell at home. Is that okay?
  7. Hurricane 3 OS unboosted break-in period

    Hey, guys. I have a question regarding the Hurricane 3 Pro OS unboosted - what exactly can I expect from it in the upcoming training sessions? I'm talking about the "break-in period." Will the rubber become faster? More bouncy? Yesterday, I had my first training session with the freshly glued...
  8. Which one would be best for my FH? (SEE VIDEO) H3 Pro BS | H3 Nat BS | 729 II Pro

    Hahaha. I'll keep that in mind for the future. It has to not only showcase technique and all the aspects around it but also be entertaining for the viewers. Got it. By the way, I have only videos where I play only with friends from the club, and they all play quite straightforwardly and...

    So, based on the video, would you recommend H3 or TG2?
  10. Which one would be best for my FH? (SEE VIDEO) H3 Pro BS | H3 Nat BS | 729 II Pro

    Thanks a lot for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback. It's very encouraging to hear that you find my technique solid. Regarding your question about footage against someone skilled at the short game, I want to be upfront – the main objective of my video wasn't to dive deep into...
  11. Which one would be best for my FH? (SEE VIDEO) H3 Pro BS | H3 Nat BS | 729 II Pro

    I love lobbing and doing looping shots from a distance even more, but with the new training hall (the one in the video) being considerably smaller than the previous one, I can no longer do these (sad Xu Xin noises). By the way, are you also a penholder?:) Anyway, I've decided to purchase two...

    Do you mean when I'm hitting topspin or when I'm smashing the ball that is high above the table?

    What are the other advantages/disadvantages compared to H3 BS or OS? SFF_lib said: Is blocking harder with TG2?
  14. Which one would be best for my FH? (SEE VIDEO) H3 Pro BS | H3 Nat BS | 729 II Pro

    Ok, I'm just gonna go with 40d. I can try 41d later. If I decide I want to add another layer of booster after I glued the rubber to the blade I have to get rid of the rubber and start the whole process again, right?

    What do you mean by the friction part exactly?
