I asked before. You will find the answer here. Pronte from what I gather is like H3.

Pronte ist not like H3. There are three versions of Pronte, one with soft sponge, one with medium sponge and one with hard sponge. I used to play the soft version, but even the medium version is softer than H3. It's a typical japanese rubber: more dynamic, faster in direct hits and slower in spins and much less spin overall. H3 is a typical china-rubber: less dynamic, slower in direct hits, faster in spins (kick) and much more spin overall.

If you might try Pronte, take the soft version: because amongst soft rubbers it is outstanding (the medium and hard version are nothing special amongst medium or hard rubbers). When you hit the ball straight / frontally (just as newbies do), then i experienced no rubber better than Pronte Soft, because ...

the physical qualities of Pronte Soft are:
# unusually tacky (and fast) for a soft rubber
# unusually long dwell-time for a soft rubber
# unusually long durability for a soft rubber

the in-game qualities of Pronte Soft are:
# almost immune to incoming spin
# safety, ball-placement, and tolerance
# direct spinless hits, e.g. bringing the ball back, pressing or counter-smashing
# flat (spinless) speed

summa summarum: it is all that what rubbers like Mambo or LKT Pro XP are, just better in any point.

And don't speedglue it. It will render it mushy and doesn't make it faster. And don't try to spin with it. In this case you better choose other rubbers.

i too have used the pronte soft version,i found it had a high dwell time and high throw,so high that i had to really close the blade angle to get my loops to land,it has a good tack for serving but don`t use on too slow blade due to high dwell factor imo not enough latitude for blade angle
