the Nittaku NEO on there they have national quality- what they give to japanese players who use Hurricane 3 NEO. It's legit. My friend uses it.

They are by all accounts national quality sheets, it's the cheapest way to buy a national sheet and probably the only way to be 100% sure you are getting a real one

Go to the English section of the web site, do your order jam in your credit card details and you are done. They seem to send everything via ems which gets to you in a few days. The box's and packing that company send out are a sight to behold. Almost Alien postal technology. They have the H2 neo also which would solve your issue of not finding good H2's regularly

Just a question, from Iruiru, the Hurrican 3 KYOHYO 3 NT50 mention that Japan sponge and China sheet. Why the Neo3 doesn't mention that info?
Also, Neo 3 mention that "this is a square type", is that National sheet?

2011 Nittaku catalogue mention it: both topsheet and sponge of Nittaku H3 Neo are made in China. I don´t know about its grade, national, provincial or whatever. But I can tell it´s much softer than 8-sided H3 Neo.
BTW, H3 NT50 Type has just been discontinued here in Japan. Cry

Just wonder why no one carries this rubber in the US?  It could sell like crazy.  Maybe I'm gonna be the saleman for this line of rubber Tongue j/k.
 
I probably will ask paddlepalace about this rubber and several other new blades that Nittaku just produce.
 
In the mean time, anyone knows the reason why this line of rubbers (Nittaku Hurricane rubbers) not so popular (or even not a lot of US players know about them)? 
 
Thanks,

Bringing this thread back to life :)

Does anyone have any more input on this?  A comparison to h3 neo provincial would be great as buying this would be much more reliable.
Also, any idea on what the sponge hardness is?  I assume it's somewhere between 38 and 41, but an exact number would be great.

Sponge is 39 - but Nittaku H3 Pro is a better choice is one intends to boost with Falco - it just performs better in all aspects.

I don't boost.  I'm using h3 neo prov right now and I just threw some glue on the blade and slapped the rubber on.  That's good enough for my purposes.
If this is essentially the same as h3 neo prov (or better), then it provides a reliable way to get prov quality.

yes, you will not be disappointed - it is the same product - with better quality control and a sponge which is not too hard. If you happened to have  real good H3 neo prov then Nittaku H3 Neo prov will feel the same... if you had an average H3 Neo prov - then Nittaku will feel better....

Interesting.  If that's the case, why would anyone use H3 neo prov which is actually more expensive?

can't find it there: http://iruiru.com/goods_list.php?ct=A#Nittaku (and no DHS category in the list).

I've never ordered from tabletenniskingdom though.

I found someplace else as well, but it was a lot more expensive.

With shipping to the US, tabletenniskingdom seems to be the cheapest for 1 sheet.  Are they reputable?

Prices have very much to do with market forces... the greater the demand the higher the price - DHS H3 Neo Prov maybe more known / popular if it is more expensive

as zheyi said, it's more like a provincial. less tacky, slightly softer but bouncier sponge. 

there are jttaa pros using nittaku h3 neo. quality is good and consistent. my purchased h3 neo prov varied in quality and were not as good. my supplier went back to train in CNT half a yr ago so i don't think i can get these reliably. looking for a suitable fh rubber atm.

for dhs, import price is higher but in china, it's ~$35. in jp, nittaku neo h3 is about $40 retail, store price ~$36 regularly. so price is about the same.

Most of us don't make it to China too often, so getting our hands on authentic provincial versions isn't so easy.  Essentially you have to know someone because you never know what you're going to get when ordering it online - there have been far too many threads on here with people questioning the authenticity of sheets they've received from various sellers.
Fortunately someone at my previous club goes back to china every so often, gets a bunch of them from his old coach and brings them back to the states.  Last time he had extra so I was able to get one, but it was $50.
If I can get guaranteed provincial or better quality for $36+ shipping, I think it's worth a shot when I need to replace the current one.
