About Hurricane II

DHS Hurricane II is a 2012 inverted (pimples-in) sheet made in China. It belongs to the Hurricane series, is ITTF-approved (code 24-002), and is aimed at allround-offensive (OFF−) players who want allround-offensive play that still needs a safety margin.

Hurricane II uses Chinese-style tacky build — high grip, often used with booster in Europe and a tacky topsheet that grips the ball for spin-heavy loops. Manufacturer sponge hardness is 47° (Chinese tacky); a cut sheet is about 45 g. Factory sponge thicknesses: 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, MAX. Sold with topsheet in Black and Red; sponge in blue/orange / orange. Hurricane (H3, H8, H3-50 and provincial/national versions) is DHS's sticky Chinese inverted, usually boosted for European speed-gluing rules.

On the TableTennisReview 0–100 index the Combined figures are speed 76, spin 90 and control 84 (official mapping 75 / 89 / 84). That is a control-first inverted profile for allround-offensive play that still needs a safety margin. Hardness, weight and thickness above are factory facts — not lab tests.

Community score 8.5 / 10 from 176 reviews. Indicative European street price €32. Compare Hurricane II with other DHS Hurricane and inverted rubbers on the same scale, or open the catalogue filters for OFF− inverted sheets.

Factory thicknesses

Factory sponge thicknesses sold in Europe: 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, MAX. These are shopping facts — Combined speed / spin / control on this page do not change with thickness.

1.8: Thinner inverted sponge. Allround and first-upgrade backhands live here more often than attacking forehands.
1.9: The usual club backhand thickness on inverted tensors. A bit more control, a bit less catapult than 2.1 / MAX.
2.0: Mid-thick. Common on the backhand when MAX felt lively, or as a two-wing compromise.
2.1: Still a thick attacking sponge. A small step down from MAX on some tensors — shops treat it as the other FH thickness, not a control sheet.
MAX: Thickest factory sponge. Most catapult on a tensor; the usual attacking forehand. Combined figures on this page are for the SKU, not a separate MAX score.
