Hurricane 3 or neo and mark v xs for backhand rubber

Rugene Pet Asked 8 years ago

Hi coach Alois and Jeff,

Any opinions for the dhs hurricane 3 and the neo version and the mark v xs for a backhand rubber? I rarely use a backhand to attack tho i only use it to counter spinny serves by doing a chop. Any choices of which rubber should i use and what sponge thickness would you recommend? Thanks a lot.

Hi Rugene,

I don't have any opinions on those because I haven't used them, but I am sure one of our readers will be able to help.

The only thing I would say is, get a thinner sponge which will give you better control for your chopping.

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.

I think for chopping, serving, pushing and slow spinny topspins then go for Hurricane 3 Neo. Its is very spinny but bit slow than mark V, I used H3N myself and it got a lot of control and spin potential, I was just amazed.

What about the hurricane 3 neo's durability?
