From my understanding, Nittaku Hurricane 3 Neo is the softest out of the three due to the japanese sponge. Some say it suppose to be like a cheaper version of provincial hurricane 3 neo but i cannot say that for sure yet as i myself haven't tested it. Provincial hurricane 3 neo is the same as hurricane 3 neo, but softer.

the quality of the topsheet of the nittaku version is a par above the commercial ones and it is the closest thing in terms of quality to a provincial one.

Am willing to bet it's very similar to target national, which also has a porous sponge. IMO prov h3 is best, as you can choose your hardness and easily control your boosting.

it is not porous. i owned both target national and nittaku h3 and h3 does not have a porous sponge. it is like the chinese counterpart but the quality is just very good.

DHS Hurricane neo is better

 

[yogi_bear]

nope, the commercial neo h3 has a lower quality compared to the nittaku versions. the consistency of the commercial h3 varies from good to crappy.

Nittaku h3 Neo and H3 Neo Provincial is pretty much exactly the same. The only difference that I have seen is that the Nittaku one is cheaper. I have heard people say that the Nittaku one has more consistent quality as well, but I have not bought enough sheets to know for sure.

I played the Nittaku H3 now for a while and I like it a lot. But: sometimes it could be more cripsy, espallially on flat hits and blocks.
The topsheet seems to be the same as the provicials, thats what I learned from this thread.
But what about the sponges?
Is a 39 provincial harder/crispier than the Nittaku (on these ones you cannot choose)? Or should I maybe try a 40 provincial?
