    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Praised for exceptional spin and control performance, though limited rebound poses challenges when transitioning from tension rubbers. Recognized as a versatile rubber suitable for beginners to advanced players, particularly excelling in close-range techniques and looping drives.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Outstanding spin performance enabling easy lower-ball attacks and loop drives
    • Excellent stability in close-range techniques (stop, push strokes)
    • Strong adhesion provides excellent ball grip and precise control
    • Requires adjustment in stroke technique compared to tension rubbers
    • Pairing with elastic rackets recommended due to low rebound characteristics
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveNearly perfect performance. Serves spin sharply and short, while push strokes offer exceptional stability and sharpness. Counter-attacks and lower-ball drives deliver powerful shots, with the stickiness neutralizing opponent's spin.
    ▽ CriticalBalls go into the net when using tension-rubber techniques due to lack of rebound. Beginners find it difficult and extracting the rubber's true potential is challenging. It does not tolerate lazy or careless strokes, constantly demanding solid, committed shots.

      Compared to someone who normally uses tension rubber, this is incredibly hard.
      I personally couldn't handle it.

      That said, the serves bite like crazy.
      Since it doesn't fly forward much, you can put full power into cutting the serve and still keep it short.
      The drive also produced an insanely spinny loop when I brushed it.

      However, it's hard to blast through untouched winners with it, so if you're someone who cares more about winning than putting on a flashy show, give this tacky rubber a try.
      The ball you send will also be tough for your opponent to deal with.

      P.S.
      I also used the blue sponge version, and it's a different animal from the above - despite being tacky, it was also capable of a drive where the ball sinks into the sponge.
      The hardness also felt about 3 to 5 degrees lower.

      My backhand drive and chiquita both got more spin than before, and it's become easier to keep the ball on the table in the short game.
      Hurricane really is amazing after all.

      From my own experience, it feels like a tacky rubber that never quite became a "tacky-tension" rubber. That said, my friend said it bounces plenty, so this might just be my own opinion. If you normally use tension rubber, this won't feel bouncy enough, so I'd recommend trying one of the rubbers labeled "tacky-tension" first.

      Awful (Experience: 11〜20 years) Insane amount of spin

      Reviews by user

      This is a rubber that's now become the benchmark for all other rubbers.
      World champion Ma Long uses it too, and its spin is basically cheating.
      I think any drive-style player could make good use of it.

      extra (Experience: 4〜5 years) Easy to use

      Reviews by user

      Even though it's a tacky rubber, it flew way more than I expected.
      I used to use Turbo Orange, but the feel didn't suit me so I switched to Neo3. It's cheaper too, and personally it flew better than Turbo Orange. The ease of use is also completely different. Above all, short-game techniques like flicks and stops are easy to pull off. Hitting against chop also puts a huge amount of spin on the ball, so it arcs in nicely and feels stable. That said, for players who play away from the table, it's not that it won't fly, but I think it requires a lot of skill, so I can't really recommend it for that. I'd recommend it for players whose shots fly in a flatter, straighter line.

      The first time I used it I felt like it didn't fly at all, but once I switched to a stroke that put forward spin on the ball to send it out, I felt like it actually flies.

      When I hit it well, the speed, spin, and trajectory produce a ball unlike anything else, which is fun, but when I mishit it, the ball goes completely dead and flat - and I mean completely.

      The theory that Neo3 is the strongest turned out to be true. It's easier to use than any other Hurricane. Compared to Turbo Orange it feels a bit softer, which makes it easier to handle. It puts out solid speed, and the spin is peak tacky-rubber spin - even from back position, the bounce is on par with tension rubber so you won't lose in exchanges. Another great thing about this rubber is that it suits any blade. Of course it works with pure wood, but it also brings out its own unique goodness with both outer and inner carbon blades. Recommended even for people trying a tacky rubber for the first time.
