So I'm very confused, one of the guys asked me to get him a new blade and re-glue his T05 and H8 red 39deg 2.2mm.
Both rubbers are well used, Tenergy weights at 48g, while the red 2.2mm 39 deg H8 is 39.8g...
Isn't this supposed to be a heavy rubber? Does it have a ton of factory boosting that makes is heavy when new? I saw others write this is around 50+ grams cut, but here I'm holding one in my hand that is 39.8g.

if hard = 40, mid = 39, the new soft version in TT11 should be 38 degrees, right?

When I received H8 from TT11 in the past, MH = 39, and H = 40.

I bought some mid-hard and got 39 degree, so probably Yes.

So on TableTennis11.com there's 2 versions of Hurricane 8, Mid-Hard and Hard. While on Taobao there's only 39 degree and 40 degree. Does anyone know if the 39 degree is Mid-Hard and the 40 degree is the Hard version of Hurricane 8. I've asked the customer service but they seem to have no idea.

low arc means this is like a true Chinese rubber, compared to the high arc produced by hurricane 3 commercial.

H8 is very easy to lift underspins due to tackiness.

My H2 NEO 39° the lightest and the tackiest of all the Hurricanes I have, although playing a tacky surface doesn't help me at all with the poly ball

both, but that does not necessarily lend itself to being highly playable in today's game though unless you like the older brick-hard feel.

H8 is tackier than h3 neo and has better control . because the top sheet is not so hard as h3neo and sponge is more elastic ... you can feel the more dwell time on it and this gives you great control advantage.

I can only confirm my experience with the sample I tried on my bro-in-law's blade.  The throw is 
similarly high to H3neo.  Although faster, it is not significantly faster,  and not enough to make a difference on my backhand.   That is why I was wondering about the Omega V Asia since NextLevel offered that in reply to your request for H3neo experience.   The H8 sample I tried is not tacky.  I get spin more from grip with H8.   

My bro-in-law has far more experience with H8, since it was his paddle.  He switched to H3neo (which he got from his Coach) on Chinese New Year's eve when I helped glue it on his paddle during the dinner party. While gluing it, I noticed that it had 38 degree and a simplified Chinese character printed on the sponge.  I actually can't read Chinese and asked him what it said.  He said it says "province".  I told him his Coach sold him the good stuff.  
Since then, I find his shots are much more consistent at mid-distance, while the rest of his game is about the same.    He does not boost either.
