DHS Hurricane 9 Pink

Currently using on the BH of the Stiga Cybershape Carbon and Victas Firefall AC. Has a medium-lower throw angle that allows for heavy spin with low trajectory. The low throw can be hard to deal with on defense, but the tacky rubber allows for easier counter-hitting and counter-looping opportunities when in position. I would recommend for 3-5 ball attackers, mid-distance counter-attackers, or inverted rubber choppers. H3 Neo is a better attacking option than this rubber, as they use the same sponge and it is faster, but this is way more stylish with the pink coloration.

tl; dr: Slightly softer, slower H3 Neo, but cooler since it’s pink.

Awesome rubber. Very close to the H3. It’s probably because they share the same sponge. The rubber generates a lot of spin. Very good rubber. A bit slow if you have a weak stroke. #coachhali

Review after playing several matches: H9 Blue FH and Pink BH. All 39deg 2.15. Compared with H3 Prov Blue/Orange 40deg, H8 40deg, Battle II Pro 40deg, all on FH. No booster applied. The feeling is similar to the Hurricane series, but with less spin and more speed. H9 Pink is truly a BH rubber with heavy backspin and blocks so well. It can perform flicks really well, too. It is slow if far from the table. H9 Blue can play as an FH rubber as it is good on all strokes. It spins more than Battle II and is faster than H3 (not as spinny as H3 and slower than Battle II). It depends on your view. To play H9 Blue, you don’t have to brush as much as H3 orange; just hit more forward like playing with H3 Blue or Battle II.

Weight: H8 > Battle II > H3 > H9 Speed: H3 Blue > Battle II > H9 Blue > H9 Pink > H8 > H3 Orange Spin: H3 Orange > H8 > H9 Pink > H9 Blue > Battle II Predictable: H9 Pink > Battle II = H8 > H9 Blue > H3 H9 Blue #22 sponge also has a kick effect (change arc) like H3 blue when hitting the other side of the table if you hit really hard. Service: H3 > Battle II = H8 > H9 Blue = H9 Pink Short push: H3 > H8 > H9 Pink > H9 Blue > Battle II Block: H9 Pink > H8 > Battle II > H9 Blue = H3 Flick: H9 Pink > H8 = Battle II > H9 Blue = H3 Flat hit: H8 = Battle II > H9 Blue = H9 Pink > H3 Topspin loop drive: H3 > Battle II > H8 > H9 Blue > H9 Pink
