Like y'all know Haifu Blue Whale II has black sponge.. so it should be called the Black Whale.. LOL
So here is the real HAIFU BLUE WHALE II, Haifu WHALE II topsheet with DHS BLUE SPONGE






I have it side by side with my mean looking Hurricane II Black Sponge (http://www.mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29326&PN=1#354776 ) the problem is they both are black LOL but I'll using for testing purpose only so it should be fine ^^

İt should not be as powerful as the orginal one. The power of Bw II come from its sponge.

Forhand: Hurricane 3 39

Might not be as fast as BWII but that doesn't mean it wont be better. I think it will be similar to H3 on blue sponge

First impressions are good, spiny, higher throw than BW II. Speed is OK.
On first try I would say this is better than the Hurricane II Black Sponge. More consistent, more forgiving..
 
But don't have time to test it much because I have a tournament coming next week so I have to get back to my main setup. Cry

oh jeez. Those are both terrific.
 
 I think I'd prefer H2 on black sponge though.

they sell a blue sponge Haifu... Blue whale 1... probably where the name was inspired from. Blue Whale 1 = blue sponge.

REally? didn't know about that, they should call the rubbers blue whale and black whale.. LOL

Looping with BWII on Blue Sponge is somewhat effortless less energy needed, while looping with HurricaneII on Black Sponge requires a lot more energy.
I am tempted to play BW II on Blue Sponge, FH, starting next week after the tournament.. will update y'all on the verdict.

Haifu BLUE Whale II is better than H2/3 NEO in terms of durability, spin and speed??

No.. we're talking about the custom rubbers I made..
I switched Haifu topsheet on DHS Blue Sponge, and the Hurricane II topsheet on Haifu black sponge..
