  1. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo: The Complete Amateur Guide & Review

    Yes sure, I will be upgrading my video setup next month as now I have been making videos with my oldish samsung phone and I cannot get the sound correctly unless im close, but then you cannot tape the whole thing, angle is too few haha Anyways will share when I have it, no problem! But...
  2. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo: The Complete Amateur Guide & Review

    Great additional information here for others to read into the detail, thanks a lot for that! I have not tried the nittaku versions so I did not want to comment on that here, I know they exist but wanted to keep it to my experience only, I have heard good things about those though! Agreed on BH...
  3. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo: The Complete Amateur Guide & Review

    Thanks for this detail, I have indeed read the contradictory opinions on different forums, and to be honest, I'm not sure which one I can believe or take as a fact, but what I do know from my own testing and feeling is that the H3N is more lively than the normal H3 when you use it the first...
  4. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo: The Complete Amateur Guide & Review

    Interesting, I have not noticed much difference with a booster that is a bit older, but I will pay more attention from now on. I have not tried the purple cap, do you notice much more effect? I figured that for us amateurs yellow is good enough, or at least I enjoy what I get right now so I...
  5. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo: The Complete Amateur Guide & Review

    Thanks a lot! Ah yes, this is one thing I did not mention in the guide, but I will add it!! I have experimented with glueing before it becomes flat, and I also enjoyed the feel! In the end, for me personally I usually let it sit a bit longer as I prefer more control, but this is the magic of...
  6. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo: The Complete Amateur Guide & Review

    Good Q, I will write another blogpost in some months around non-boost and cheap alternatives, still need to do a bit more research on this. But anyways, dignics and zyre are not comparable, zyre is not tacky/hard so it belongs to a different category of rubbers. Dignics 09c comes closer in...

  8. DHS Hurricane 3 Neo: The Complete Amateur Guide & Review

    The DHS Hurricane 3 Neo is one of the most popular table tennis rubbers in the world and also one of the most misunderstood, there are endless myths and conflicting opinions about it. Most people argue about versions, sponge hardness, sponge colour, boosting, and more (I see this almost week on...
  9. 1.9 vs 2.1 dignics 09c weight difference and other differences?

    I see, if you have yourself on video I'd love to see it and check the stroke mechanics (you can send via DM no problem!). Then depending on that I can say if 1.9 or 2.1 is better for you and also see how the blade and rubbers behave on your overall technique. It may be you are a really high...
  10. DHS Hurricane 3 neo / unboosted

    Im gonna publish today the amateur H3N guide with answers to all those Qs, wait 1-2h plz :)
  11. 1.9 vs 2.1 dignics 09c weight difference and other differences?

    I have tested both, 1.9 for about 6 months and 2.1 for about 2 months, and for me the key difference was (which is logic) that 2.1 has less control, but more power. This sounds as if I took it from chatgpt, but it's the truth haha I remember when I started with 2.1m and balls would fly long...
  12. Something like between Rakza Z and Rakza Z extra hard

    I wonder why boost a linear rubber like Rakza Z, then better get one with more catapult like for example Bluegrip C2 or so? Plenty of alternatives here. In any case in my experience, if technique is correct, Rakza Z is plenty fast unboosted yet heavy. For FH, if you want such hardness, and...
  13. DHS Hurricane 3 neo / unboosted

    My apologies but anybody who has tried both sponges exhaustively knows that blue should be played boosted, otherwise avoid it :) Perhaps you refer to orange here?
  14. DHS Hurricane 3 neo / unboosted

    I agree with the above, it's very well explained and pretty much what I explain in the guide I'll be publishing this weekend. Just a personal preference/nuance on blue sponge, I play it with 2 layers instead of 3, and only train 7h a week (10h one week a month) and I like it more than orange...
  15. Looking for recommendations for new racket

    That's fine, just saying that you may love the feel of a blade, I love the feel on both my DHS WCQ and Viscaria as well, but I lose more points I win with them, they are too fast and I don't need so much power, 7 ply (for me PG7, which is a steal for 25 euros) or slower innerforce carbon blades...
  16. Something like between Rakza Z and Rakza Z extra hard

    Razka Z is a pretty linear hybrid with standard hardness around 50-52 degrees (ESN scale), so the first question I'd ask is: Do you want another rubber that is also somewhat linear and similarly controlled like razka z? Or you are okey with non-linear like Rasanter C45, bluegrip C2 or 09c? Also...
  17. DHS Hurricane 3 neo / unboosted

    I will publish a pretty long H3N for amateurs guide this weekend, where I hope to answer all these questions in depth but explained in a simple way :) But, while I'm still finishing that up, here is my tl;dr: - H3N is always supposed to be boosted so you can fine tune it to your own liking...
  18. Looking for recommendations for new racket

    Yes an excellent value for money viscaria alternative :) I always say to people both koto/kiri or limba/ayous combinations work, just a matter of gear taste and playstyle.
  19. Backhand modern weight transfer technique: loading on dominant leg. What do you think or prefer?

    Mine is the Lin Gaoyuan's general draws his sword, but then from Temu xD
  20. Nittaku Violin for the modern game?

    I agree with this @mightymouse , I think that even though white ash is a very hard wood, since the plies are super thin, you don't feel it much. Also, white ash is very flexible, so that gives the blade a certain feel and forgiveness that I love combined with the kiri core :) Acoustic is...
