πŸŸ₯ DHS Hurricane 3 (National)

DHS€25–45

The 'tacky' rubber favoured by many Chinese professionals. Brutal spin on short balls, but it demands strength.

Pros

  • Huge grip for spin
  • Excellent control in the short game
  • Great value for money

Cons

  • Slower and harder β€” needs a lot of physical strength
  • Demanding learning curve

A different style

Unlike European 'tensor' rubbers, the Hurricane 3 relies on a very tacky surface and a hard sponge. The result is immense spin when you accelerate the ball, with plenty of control on short balls.

The catch

All that grip comes at a cost: it's a physically demanding rubber. Without good arm acceleration it feels slow. It's the choice for players who love the Chinese style of play.
