Hi alois, before 10 days i got hurricane 8 mid-hard as my fh rubber, i looked at lot of reviews about this rubber and people say this rubber have lot of tackiness, but after 4 training sessions, each 1 hour, the rubber almost lost all of his tackinnes, and after every session i cleaned him with water, do you have any explanation about it?

Hi Omer,

It may lose that extreme tackiness that it starts with but it still has a lot of grip on the surface.

You will still be able to utilise this rubber well.  In fact I think it is often easier when that initial tackiness wears off, especially for the flatter hit.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

Omer, Hurricanes are overally quite hard rubbers.
As far as I know,such rubbers require better technique to efficiently create spin.

As Alois says,the initial tackiness is extreme one but wears of fairly quickly in case of majority (if not all) rubbers.
