This rubber is incredible!! It is faster than any Hurricane I have used before. It is so spinny on full shots. Serves are nuts spinny. Blocks are incredible.
It does punish you if you are playing a bad shot, but it is awesome when you play a good one.
But here is the thing it is so much easier to smash with than any Hurricane I have ever used before.
I hope I feel like this about this rubber in a week.
It is a little hard and fierce on my Yinhe M202, maybe I should try it on Force Pro Blue, I have not really been affected by the weight!!
Hey Patrick, did you try boosting your h3ptb after the factory booster wore off?
I did, using the Seamon booster and it did not bring back the same feeling. It was playable and not bad, but not like the fresh-out-the-package rubber (the factory-boosted feeling persist markedly longer than for ESN rubbers, ~2-3 months).
How long does the factory tuning last?
And how do you deal with it? Reboost? With what?
How long are people finding this stays good, I have used mine for about 35 to 40 hours in 5 weeks and it feels like it is dying a bit, losing its driving ability and playing more like an old H3N.
I have glued it about 8 or 9 times though whilst trying on different blades which may have depleted it's life.
What are others experiencing??
Patrick would you say with your match blade, would you have to store it in a plastic bad or sealed container, presumably it is the air getting to the sponge and the sponge booster evaporating that makes it deteriorate, the top-sheet still feels fine to me.
Here is my line of thinking: Since the rubbers need to be able to pass the VOC-sniffer, the booster must be largely non-volatile (although this particular rubber stinks = volatile !?), which would render sealed bags a moot point except for minimize oxidation of the topsheet. I think the boosters diffuse from the sponge and into the glue layer and/or into the topsheet where they are wiped off by ball contact and/or our hands (safety?).
I think It will be very difficult to play with it227g ??? Oh my god. I would be shocked.
Way too heavy. Unless you play with pips on the other side this rubber isn't an option. I doubt it'll have success or sales.Hello Guys, nittaku h3 pro turbo blue arrived yesterday. I'm very curious to try it.
First thing, the rubber is very very heavy: 91g!!
Second thing, the rubber is also very very hard, it is much harder than a 40° dhs h3. I would say it is 42~43° on dhs scale.
