Mines had the 4 corners cut so I did not weigh them because I could not compare with other rubbers.

Mine had the corners cut too. Hopefully people are used to the DHS rubber shape by now and can make their own approximations, but it's worth mentioning yes.

hello, and you can make a short comparison of hurricane 8-80 and big dipper, in terms of speed, stiffness, angle of throw

Big Dipper is way harder and therefore requires way more force to the same speed level of the Hurricane 8-80, which is softer and easier to generate speed with it.
That is the main reason i consider the Hurricane 8-80 more of a BH rubber which makes it hard to compare with a Dipper which is used on the FH of 99% of all players^^

Trying to give some kind of direction here:
Hurricane 8-80 is faster than the Big Dipper and has a slightly higher throwangle (another reason why i would use it more on BH). Not sure what you mean by stiffness though, because we are talking about rubbers here, which are pretty much the opposite of "stiff".

I'm using the 37 degree on the BH now. I like it so far, not super fast but not slow either and can do good spin. Short game not bad either.

Compared to the focus snipe I was using before blocking wasn't quite as easy though, it works better if you add some spin.

the 38 degrees was on sale last week 25% off, i figure why not try it ... instant buyer's remorse. only glued once and wanted to switch to another blade and the 38 degree sponge separated from the topsheet. wanted to swap 37deg too but made sure to very carefully remove since the 38 was dead after one glue and the 37 deg sponge also started to rip a bit....

sad thing is i thought it was ok for the fh (38)

the 37 on the bh is still not catapult-y enough. if my bh was stronger maybe i could use it.

What is this “Revolution” glue everyone uses? I’ve never heard of it, and I’m really interested if it really is that good.

It's actually very similar to Lidu or Dianchi glue just has a lot more viscosity. It is supposed to be a decent glue, I'd probably rate it as 3rd best after Nittaku Finezip and DHS No 15. I have used it in the past and it was fine.

But doing this to a H8-80 is horrible, I don't even. Chinese sponges are so strong and they let you remove glue layers so easily. I feel disgusted.

Some additional data points:
H8-80 37, black, uncut weight incl. foil 67g (area: 16.4 cm x 16.9 cm - 4x ~2.5 cm² = 267 cm²), cut weight with 2 + 1 layer of PimplePark Viscoso Pro Velox glue (no ammonia smell, sort of like Nittaku Finezip but more fluid) 50g on a TSP Swat (15 cm x 15.7 cm).
Quite tacky: holds the ball for around 3 seconds, sponge is quite brittle (somewhat like Sanwei Target 90)
