Difference between Neo and normal provincial Hurricane 3?

[MOG]

I have been using for several months DHS NEO Hurricane 3 provincial in 40 degree (unboosted)

what is the difference if you got the non neo provincial version in same 40 degree hardness

1. is it different sponge?
2. is it slower?
3. is it tackier, spinnier?
4. does the hardness fell the same?

I would be using black rubber only in 2.15!

and are these 3 things the same if you boost both rubbers?

thanks?

Neo is faster out of the package. If you boost the non-neo, you'll get a neo.

then there is of course the question of the sponges to consider, right ???
Is not provincial H3 produced with both OS and BS ???

Yes, that's right. There's both blue/orange neo and non-neo. Blue sponge is slightly denser than orange. They all have the same top-sheet, although recent productions seem to be less tacky.

I'm not sure if you are comparing orange or blue, but the neo and non neo comes in different specs.
if OS, ie
Neo is 2.1mm, 2.15mm, 2.2mm in 39 and 40 deg
non Neo is 2.15mm and 2.22m in 38, 39, 40, 41 deg

so if you are using 2.15mm and 40 degrees in black only, my experience is that the Neo booster is of no use, and either way, I would boost both. However, my experience is based on blue sponge, of which you also get Neo and non Neo version.

The only thing I can say of what I heard before is non Neo versions is supposedly better for speed glue/boosting. But both are about the same to me, as the life span of the rubber are too short to really tell the different. For me, it is more about what is available (back then)

Orange sponge, never tred blue apart from Nittaku Turbo Nutter Blue.
So might as well buy the Neo prov as its same price as non-Neo

Does Blue tend to be tackier than Orange?

Assuming Provincial 40 degree in both for example?
