DHS Hurricane 3 Provincial 40' blue sponge

Very good rubber for forehand! I like it a little more than normal H3. The only downside is that it is less tacky than normal H3. But I play better with it anyway! So, if the price is not a problem, go for it!

The rubber has good control, but poor spin and speed.

As expected for Chinese rubbers, they need to be boosted, they need to be committed with your movement, and also require some maintenance (re-glued each 1-2 weeks). If you are ready to do that, you will have a really good stuff in your hand… easy to make short returns (even when the opponent’s serve comes a little bit long), unexpected spin to your opponent, amazing arc with a low throw, and an unbelievable counterattack against top spin.

Usarlo con dos capas de booster es una maravilla.

Best suited for arylate blades with koto, such as Viscaria or Timo Boll. Don’t try this rubber with blades that have a low throw angle.

Good rubber, faster than the regular version, but all Hurricane rubbers require boosting for best effect.

After using the regular H3 Neo for a year, I decided to try the H3 Prov. Blue 40°.
This rubber is amazing. It’s all the things I like about the regular H3 times ten.
The quality of the rubber is outstanding.
Touch shots, loops, and serves are great (as always with the H3), but where the H3 Prov. stands out miles above the regular H3 is in drives, counter hits, and flat hits. In a fast-paced match where you can’t always powerloop the ball (this is where the H3 usually shines), I find that the H3 Prov. Blue handles quick counters and placed blocks much better than the regular H3.
I use the H3 Prov. Blue 40° on my FH, and the Tenergy 05 on my BH. I use a DHS Hurricane 301 blade.

Very hard, not quite as nice as the national blue sponge. Still very good. Recommended for big-swing loopers. Very different feel to tensor rubbers. Not recommended for players who haven’t developed strong basic technique, especially good footwork for that extra power.

Good rubber, using it for my forehand with my DHS301.

Juego Lapicero con un madero Hurricane King 2. Excelente la goma, yo la uso con acelerador Falcon.

Rubber is very hard and tacky, with lots of gears. I’ve used it boosted and without boost. On the plus side, you won’t bottom out easily with this rubber, but you do need a well-developed technique to be able to get all of the benefits of the rubber. If you can’t control the racket during big, fast-swing shots like loops away from the table, then this rubber won’t work well for you and you should get a tensor rubber instead. But if you’re like me and really hit the ball hard, and have had problems with other rubbers bottoming out, then this might be just what you need.

Provincial version lives up to its name. High quality as expected. Not much “better” than the commercial orange sponge version. Still great nonetheless. Best when boosted.
