I didn't find either one lively at all. The 3-50 with some TinArc like sponge felt quite dead, and the H3N 37 deg was a bit better for forehand looping game, but the harder the better kick you get out of it. Maybe they work fine on a really fast blade?

Did you play it on the Yinhe V-14 Pro, because that's already a really fast blade.

 
Yogi, what's your personal way of boosting with Seamoon?

3x layers with no glue in between layers of seamoon. 12hrsper layer then 1 day rest before gluing. Add 2 layers after 1 month.

I have tried the Expander but not much effect since I usualy change rubbers every 3 months.

Have you used Falco Tempo Long Booster on commercial H3 or H3 Neo?

How do you apply it and what results do you get compared to with Seamoon?

Either way, do you get better results boosting H3 or H3 Neo?

Yes i was using falco long before. I can say seamoon hasa stronger boosting effect.

Thanks Yogi. Do you remove the glue off the rubber when you reboost, or do you reboost over it?

I am using revolution glue so yes i remove it before boosting. It is very easy to remove on hard sponges.

Hi Yogi,

which viscosity revo glue do you use?
peels off of the harder (dense small pore) sponges very easily and doesn’t really leave much residue on the blade at all.
some of the harder ‘cake’ sponges pose more of a problem, they are definitely more fragile because of the larger bubble sizes and more care is needed when removing the glue!!

Adding to the original post.

Good video, nice to know the H3Neo sponge coating is glue!!
there’s a couple of schools of thought on whether to either boost directly onto the sponge or to apply a layer of glue to give some protection to the sponge.
H3N provincial rubbers I’ve boosted, I left the factory glue on and boosted over the top, dome was similar to that shown after 24hrs in the video. Strange they only applied 1 coat of booster!! They also seemed to leave on the top sheet protective film, I always take this off, it allows the rubber to move a little easier, couple of other vids I’ve watched say remove the protection film.

Theres a few different ways people use to boost, but I don’t think there’s a definitive best way!!

I have 2 h3 commerical in this pic https://imgur.com/a/F0l4QbuThe AHXG301B plays way better than BXXB606N. They both have the same packaging but they are clearly different because their sponge color is different when open new. Both package looks exactly like https://www.paddlepalace.com/DHS-Hurricane-3/productinfo/RCH3A/ same thickness 2.15mmCan anyone tell me where can I buy AHXG301B variant of h3 commercial?
I don't think it's a different variant, it's a production code, so made at a different date or at different DHS factories.

Did you buy them from the same place?

The commercial version can vary from sheet to sheet, from 38 to 40 degrees Shore A (49 to 53 Shore C).

The sponge colors on your photos don't look that different to me, one has glue on it so looks more dim, one doesn't so looks brighter.
