Hi I have been using a DHS W997 blade with DHS h3 provincial orange sponge for about 5 months from ttnpp here is the link 
 http://ttnpp.com/store/dhs/339-neo-dhs-hurricane-3-iii-provincial-6-edges-6.html
With Donic acuda s2 on the backhand. I like this set up however the rubbers are due for a replacement I am thinking tenergy 64 for my backhand and h3 neo on my FH what rubber would you recommend from ttnpp?

Is this rubber any good??

There's been a some debate recently on whether or not ttnpp's current stock of blue sponge neo provincial rubbers are real or not.  The print on the sponge seems iffy and the rubber stamp's quality is definitely not what you'd expect from a "provincial" quality sheet.  I have a handful of them at the moment and while they play well enough (nothing spectacular) and are actually useable unboosted to some extent on OFF blades, but I don't think they are worth the price they are asking.  

However when boosted to hell and back, the blue sponge h3 neo is an unbelievably powerful FH rubber... unfortunately when boosted that much, the rubber will bubble in a matter of hours because blue sponge is extremely brittle.  At nearly $60 per sheet, it's tough to justify.

As for your setup, the orange sponge h3 neo (even the commercial one) is a much better value for the money and far more durable.  Seamoon and falco boosters are also pretty good and readily available (didn't like Dianchi though, not enough power and makes the sponge too mushy).  T64 is also a very reliable and popular BH rubber for blocking and driving, but it depends on your play style whether or not that will best suit you.

You could give the Yinhe Big Dipper a try

I second the big dipper suggestion. After playing with it more I'm finding some special things about it. For instance, my over the table banana flick has never been easier.
