DHS Hurricane 8

DHS Hurricane 8- With more speed and spin!

With the DHS Hurricane 8, the Chinese manufacturer not only updates its successful rubber series, but also pushes the series to a higher level! This is true in terms of the dynamics of the Hurricane 8 from DHS. For this, a special high-density sponge was developed. Despite a hardness score of 47°, there is a significantly increased elasticity. The manufacturer tells an increase of about 15%. Since the high elasticity is capable of storing and releasing energy (similar to spring, which releases much energy when deforming back into its initial shape), less physical effort is necessary in order to effectively accelerate the ball. Hence, there is also a higher overall speed, which successfully counteracts the detrimental effects stemming from the new plastic balls (mainly less speed and less spin).

DHS Hurricane 8 - Further information

The DHS Hurricane 8 is equipped with a catchy, slightly sticky topsheet which is a typical characteristic of the Hurricane series. Combining this feature with the power and flexibility of the sponge, you can imagine that also the lower spin potential of the new plastic balls is successfully compensated. Hence, powerful offensive players preferring hard rubbers and spinny attacks should take a closer look at the Hurricane 8 from DHS. Please also note that this table tennis rubber not only exhibits the above-mentioned optimized composition, but also a relatively high & arc-shaped trajectory of the ball, which effectively supports the spinny game. The overall gaming style of the DHS Hurricane 8 corresponds to OFF.
