DHS Hurricane Hao II

All-wood

Probably the top blade for RPB (reverse penhold backhand) play, but it’s only suitable for that specific grip. Using a traditional backhand with this blade is difficult due to its trajectory. It’s not the easiest blade to use, but it’s more powerful than pure wood blades like the OFFENSIVE CLASS (OC) but not as powerful as Arylate-Carbon (ALC) blades. As a result, you can’t use full strength and expect good control like you can with pure wood blades, nor can you rely on passive strokes and the carbon layers like you can with ALC blades.

This blade is designed for RPB, specifically for continuous looping on both wings, as used by Wang Hao. Its sibling, the Hurricane King, is more suited for big, powerful forehand shots, as used by Wang Liqin.

I would recommend this blade for players with very offensive tactics in service receive and attack. It also requires a physically fit player as it demands power to perform well. If you prioritize control, then the YEO blade might be a better option.

Additionally, this blade’s trajectory is relatively high, so you will need to loop most of the time, unless you are very close to the table.

I find it strange that this blade has no reviews.
However, when I check other websites, it is said to be one of the most popular penhold blades.
I’m not sure what the difference is between this blade and the Hurricane Hao 656, but I like this blade.
I asked TT11 to lacquer the blade.
I put Nittaku Fastarc G-1 as forehand rubber
and Victas V01 Stiff as backhand rubber.
I love the control on forehand. You can produce great spins with decent speed.
I have difficulty in short pushes, though this is probably because I need to adjust my technique.
The best part of this blade is the consistency with the backhand. It feels good.
The part I didn’t like is that there are vibrations in the handle when I push the ball short.

This is the most head-heavy blade I’ve ever used!

When brushing the ball, even just with the surface wood, you can generate very heavy spin. When hitting hard, your ball travels incredibly fast.

Additionally, the soft core wood holds the ball well, providing excellent feel and control. It is recommended for loop-oriented players who use high-spin rubbers such as T05 or Hurricane 3-NEO.

Thank you, Tabletennis11, for the discount and free shipping! I’ve never found a better webshop than TT11. You can purchase anything here with confidence, even if it’s your first time.

A nice looping blade.

This blade features a large blade area, measuring 16.2x15.2cm, and weighs 89g. Overall, it offers good control.

It provides good power when hitting the center of the blade, producing a very loud sound.

However, it is not suitable for attaching heavy rubbers like Hurricane 3 on both sides, as this would cause the total weight to exceed 195g.

Fantastic blade. It has a long throw, a soft touch, and is powerful.
