h3 is trash. Buy a sheet of joola or stay safe and play t05. it will save you money.


Reasons: 
- The same sheet of h3 plays differently the first day as compare to 3 weeks later.
- The same sheet of h3 boosted play different after weeks. 
- Bubbles 
- different weight with different h3. It's call h3 but it's actually a whole line of rubbers. 

At the end of the day i stick with tenergy/euro rubbers. Every six month i change rubber and i put on the weight and it's only +/- 1g exact. I feel like i never change rubber and keep improving my skill than wasting my time boosting, regluing, thinking about whether the boosting effect still lingers cause i miss the shot. 

I've been through this road, trust me. My biggest skill jump is when i ditch that cancer of a rubber.

I started with tenergy (like an idiot) on a slow 5 ply all wood, tried hurricane many times before and now I think it suits me best in fh. My strokes are long due to my height and soft euro rubber just doesn’t work for me on fh. For bh any med euro/jap rubber with good control such as rozena or aurus select works for me well. 

To each their own.

Gotta say, a properly boosted h3 neo is the bees knees on any off all-wood blade.

I HAVE BEEN PLAYING PAST 20 YEARS AND I DID TRY FEW TIMES MANY VARIATIONS OF HURRICANE, I WAS NEVER AS SUCCESFULL AS WITH WHAT I AM USED TO (TENERGY MXP ETC).
TO PLAY WITH HURRICANE YOU SIMPLY NEED TO BE BORN WITH IT, AND TRAIN WITH IT SINCE A KID. THAT BEING SAID NEW YOUNG TT PLAYERS THAT GET INTO TT COULD EASILLY START WITH H3 COMMERCIAL AND BE GREAT WITH IT.

Agreed
I use H3 for the whole life. I've also found difficult to use other rubbers.
And I can't use crap H3s either.
There is no real "pro", "prov" or "NT" H3 in the market.

This is the matter of taste. And it must accompany with the blade and style.
For example, someone uses Viscaria, play close to the table, hit hard. He should use thick layer of glue + booster. Vice versa, a thin 5 flies blade doesn't need that thickness.

Well said. I have live example. My friend keep changing his setup so often trying to find that perfectly fit one (wood, then carbon, tacky Chinese, esn, again tacky Chinese, polishing and modifying handle, complaining about balls and etc.) while stokes are not perfect and footwork is none.

I wouldn't discourage anyone from trying something new, unless his livelihood or ego was in the way. Changes to one's setup can often reveal limitations/flaws in one's strokes and/or errors in one's conceptual understanding of stroke mechanics.

However, aside from an unusually bad pairing of blade and rubber, bad glue job, or an out of spec sample of the rubber, the very first recourse to the rubber "not playing well" shouldn't be to find out what "better" glue or booster to use and how better to use them. Instead, examine yourself first.

Try new things and if they don't work out, make the effort to understand why. Equipment availability, quality, cost, and durability aside, it often comes down to:

1. I can't make it work because I just don't have the coordination.
2. I can make it work but it requires too much physical effort/fitness.
3. I can make it work but I don't want to spend the time to modify my strokes at his point.
4. I can't make it work because I don't understand how.

The secret is, non of actual pro Chinese players use the rubbers you could buy from the market, with the label "pro" and "NT".

The learning players (but their level is higher than everyone here) use "normal" H3
The provincial team players (their ranking is around 100 of the world ranking) use "normal" H3
The NT B team players use "normal" H3 sometimes.

So why the * a so low player on Earth is seeking for NT H3???

The main difference from the H3 using by Chinese players is, it has been chosen carefully by the coach among real H3 sheets.

There is nothing about booster.
But wrong booster will cause worse result.


Many of the ex provincial players that coach and play in the US use provincial NEO blue sponge. Jishan Liang ~2600 uses National NEO blue sponge whenever he plays tournaments, although supposedly he gets his rubbers from contacts in the Chinese National Team..
2600 is higher than average in USA but is nothing from the young prov kids in a Chinese province. That's his personal choice as he is rich and his dreaming to be nat A team player.

Non of them use H3 neo.
For the original H3, coach could choose freely before the packaging and they are much much cheaper than the market price.

It is not so clear. I was actually waiting for the outcome of this experiment which looks like to be successful and proved something. But I am still in the dark what products were posted. My guess it was either something boosted by chop4ever or not yet boosted but with advice to boost using Reviver Phoenix. Is that right?

There is no secret. Everything is clear as under the Sun but no-one believe on it.

so you inadvertently discovered a good matching blade - that is something.  I am surprised at your findings from what I read about the H2.  Thanks for the info.  I am sure Chop will add to the discussion.

It is the taste difference. For me, H2 and H3 are the same level of use.

I am sure he is smart enough to leave this setup as is and for trying out new stuff - glue it on another blade.
The point is he didn't like his neo on the other blades, so gluing the other rubbers onto the other blades won't give a good comparison.

That makes sense. 

I will feel sorry for Ericd if he swaps boosted neo to plain h3 right now.
this might well be - but the force of the EJ might have something to say

Give it an ALC blade to try.
Hardness is relative. That scale is consistent but couldn't compare to DHS scale.
There is no real "pro", "prov" or "NT" H3 in the market.
Falco is not a booster

that will take months - could try it  on the BH side just to compare (using it for FH) - of course Ericd will have to eventually put the BH rubber back.

I am sure he is smart enough to leave this setup as is and for trying out new stuff - glue it on another blade.
The point is he didn't like his neo on the other blades, so gluing the other rubbers onto the other blades won't give a good comparison.
