The DHS Hurricane Hao III is a premium table tennis blade crafted in honor of the legendary Chinese player Wang Hao, reflecting the subtlety and power of his playing style. This 5-ply pure wood blade, made from carefully selected wood species, features a thickness of 5.8 mm and weighs approximately 85–88 g (depending on the handle type – FL or Penhold). This construction ensures an excellent balance of speed, control, and flexibility, allowing players to execute both powerful offensive shots and precise technical topspins.
The Hurricane Hao III is particularly suited for players who favor the "loop" technique and fast attacks close to the table, as well as those who utilize the reverse penhold backhand (RPB). Its medium-hard core, made of ayous wood, combined with limba outer layers, delivers a stable shot feel and significant spin, while the thinner construction (compared to the Hao II) enhances control and sensitivity. This enables easy management of short shots while maintaining versatility in longer rallies.
Classified as an OFF blade, its adaptability makes it suitable for a range of playing styles, from aggressive attacks to balanced gameplay. The DHS Hurricane Hao III stands out with its excellent vibration dampening and comfortable handle, ensuring a pleasant playing experience during intense matches. It is an ideal choice for professional players and advanced amateurs looking to experience championship-level equipment and refine their skills.
