DHS Hurricane H-LG

Lots of vibrations, making it difficult to find a suitable match for this blade. Not particularly effective for close-to-the-table play, but performs adequately when playing away from the table.

Not recommended for short pips due to excessive vibrations and flex.

Similar to other DHS products, this blade is overpriced and there are many more affordable options that offer superior performance.

The wood used in its construction appears to be of low quality.

This Hurricane blade has immense power. With its hardness and stiffness, it delivers astonishing speed. However, it severely lacks control, making it unsuitable for beginners still developing their techniques.

I paired it with New Hurricane 2 Neo for the forehand and Skyline 2 Neo for the backhand.

The craftsmanship of the DHS version feels slightly rougher compared to the Nittaku Hurricane LG. To remedy this, I sanded it smooth using sandpaper.

The handle size suited me well, not being too small. It has a hard feel, being my first non-hinoki wood blade, offering a distinct experience from softer blades.

Utilizing this blade, my gameplay notably improved by 25-35%, surpassing my performance with the BF Jonyer blade due to its rigid and unyielding nature.

Due to the hard rubbers I paired with it, the blade excels in pushing, driving, smashes, flicks, drop shots, and pushes. However, looping is not its forte, proving challenging to execute. Softer rubbers might yield better results for looping.

If you’re seeking a swift, all-wooden 5-ply blade, consider the DHS Hurricane Series. It delivers exceptional speed and striking power.
