sticky top sheet + ESN elastic sponge

Many hybrid rubbers have been on the markets for a while, but recent ones are more promising?

DHS Hurricane 8 or 729 battle 2 are affordable and play decent.

    RUBBER NOVELTIES TO NOTE.

Yes, a number of innovative rubber products can be found on market nowdays as follows:
-- Enormously hard sponge up to 50* with large pores structure in combination with CHINA-MADE sticky topsheet is the most recent trend on market.

Be happy.

originally, hybrid rubbers were Chinese topsheets with Japanese or German sponges. Now people use them loosely.

I tried the Hurricane 3 in 37° and boosted it. The catapult effect became huge and still maintained some tacky properties. 
The result? Horrible, awful and poor control. If you want to boost a Hurricane do it with 39° or 40° versions.
