More reviews on the Hugo Calderano blade here: www.tabletennisdaily.com/equi...
In this review we are joined alongside the incredible World Number 15 Hugo Calderano to review his latest personal blades with Cornilleau! The Hugo Calderano Foco blades which come in OFF- and OFF+ variations. They are both fully constructed out of wood. We recorded the video in the Ochsenhausen training facility where Hugo trains and plays for in the Bundesliga with players such as Simon Gauzy, Can Akkuzu, Sam Walker and more!
It was really exciting to take on Hugo with his own blade, the Brazilian star is sending shock waves across world right now, recently reaching the final of the Qatar Open defeating wonderkid Harimoto, China’s Lin Gaoyuan and current world number 1 Timo Boll.
Watch our previous review where we look at the Simon Gauzy blade with Simon Gauzy here: • Cornilleau Simon Gauzy...

[@Pak123reactions]

dan i dont think thats the blade he uses in his matches ,,,,,u knew this r8 lol still amazing display of skill ,,pretty nice review overall

[@gustavosuenaga]

Did you play a 1 set showdown with Hugo? I'd love to see that!

[@andyc1434]

Can u test stiga ebenholz series?

[@kajolahammed]

Backhand flick :-)

[@anubhavbhattacharya6216]

I use the same blade and I love it. I use cornilleau's drive i intense on both backhand and forehand. I really enjoyed Hugo's backhand flick

[@GeneralSpecific3]

That was probably the best display of skill from any of the professionals that you've had on so far.

[@TableTennisDaily]

Hugo sure did go for it :) Thanks for subbing!

[@gustavosuenaga]

YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!! Brazil!!!!! VAMOS!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷💚💛💙💚💛💙💚💛💚

[@TableTennisDaily]

Thanks for subbing Gustavo!

[@gustavoleite9862]

É nóis BR🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@ttlondon2012]

Great Video! Hugo is a very nice Player

[@TableTennisDaily]

Thanks TTLondon! Hes awesome!

[@JuniorLevrone]

Calderano deixou ele parecendo um iniciante em tenis ...

[@SoniCraft98]

Every player says the same thing. "This blade gives me a good amount of speed, BUUUUUT I can still control the ball, don't worry."

[@muhammadsohaibimran1402]

I guess a different combination of plies gives every one their own definition of speed and control balance.

[@mikhailman4602]

Absolutely. Just advertising. No real info. … I love this blade... So fast... But great control... bla-bla-bla… How can it help to anybody? The only valuable peace of information is thickness and weight. But their are zillions other blades having these specs.

[@eduardolima4764]

Hugo is the best. Brasil aqui, pra cima deles Hugo. #timecalderano

[@gtera]

Grande Hugo! É Brasillll!!! Nice video man!

[@AapSkillingVids]

Great video as always, love these reviews. Caldanero's backhand is outrageous.

[@TableTennisDaily]

Thanks AapSkillingVids!

[@geisontimo]

tecnica monstro hein Caldeirano... parabens

[@rafaeldiego8467]

HUGO é fera 👏👏👏 🇧🇷

[@chamnabkong6472]

[@Denjo131]

WOW! This guy is amazing... 👍 Thx Dan for this nice video. Greatz from Germany ✌🏓

[@TableTennisDaily]

Thanks Denjo!

[@chaleeerain3345]

I envy you Dan. Haha. You always get to play with world's best players. Still hoping to see Ma Long though.

[@caiodelrei1]

Great, Hugo calderano.

[@jram3917]

Thank you!! My life is complete now xD

[@paulgillard2215]

Love Hugo, as a player and as a person. A real gentleman of the sport. Rather like Timo Bol. .

[@marlomschmittmtb9025]

He is Hugo of Brasil BRASIIIIIILLL, HIS BACKHAND IS THE POWERFUL IN ITTF

[@metathanatos]

Great review, great player ;-)

[@buzz4eva]

What a backhand!!!

[@Carlos-mf7mc]

He should advice in any moment of the video that he never used that cheap blade and will never do.It is boring how brands try to sell us stuff with a name on it...Anyway, great player and thanks to you Dan for bring us another good video.

[@titomcs]

And now he's number three in the world

[@fabulousbanner3252]

Awesome blades

[@je3ll]

Awesome Video

[@ClicQ.1]

Well done hugo.

[@dexdroid3044]

Vai brasil...calderano monstro...

[@toastedinternet3891]

Is gergely T5000 with Dhs Hurricane 3 National for forehand and Rozena Butterfly for backhand is that a good setup? Cuz I have been using it and winning tournaments lately

[@runnerbaba]

Hype is real!!!!

[@becyk_du_quebec]

Nice video but I knew without watching the video that the blade would be "flexible, very good touch, fast, good for looping/blocking/serving/attacking/placing the ball" etc. Great content but obviously biased...

[@Kommando_Kant]

I ❤️ Tabletennis

[@TableTennisDaily]

So do we! :D

[@gabrieldias2527]

Hugo é mt brabo

[@jonejo4587]

wow the sound

[@viprasupra]

Hey dan i love your videos please do more reviews and dans vs pros

[@TyrionUnderhill]

Hi Dan Either you improved your game or this blade is very good for you. You seems to have much more power in your strokes. Thank you for another great review!

[@khaledchoucri1567]

He is less nervous playing in front of hugo I think

[@TyrionUnderhill]

Khaled Choucri lol less nervous?! Hugo is a monster 😂

[@Zidane13893]

he is playing with Hugo power. If you can handle it looks better but when your oponnent is weaker (than hugo haha) you will see a lot easy mistakes.

[@gerardosanchez8167]

hugo calderano lo dire mil veces representas un antes y después en el tenis de mesa no sólo de sudámerica sino del continente americano ; espero poder conocerte en los juegos panamericanos lima 2019

[@hogerinhu]

¿Lo conociste? ¡¡es campeón!!

[@aconyt1940]

Pede pro Calderano me dar uma raquete dessas pra eu treinar 😁

[@samnugroho5948]

Wow awesome. What is Hugo's rubbers?

[@harrikyllio804]

You Guys Should Review victas v 15 extra Rubber, Keep Up Good work :)

[@lanbroghini]

Did your microphone break during the Off- section?

[@david0ade]

Hugo, Kanak and Kirill are 3 rising stars from Non European country. Hugo is just a bit more ahead

[@TableTennisDaily]

Yeah, he Simon and others from Ochsenhausen are doing really well atm!

[@paramrajput9416]

that backhand by hugo😈😈😈😈

[@funkindy]

Review is great but he uses a custom blade based on Gatien Absolum with Calderano Foco OFF+ design.

[@animaysh]

Good timing for the advertising eh?:) Fair enough, where do you buy the Target Pro rubber? 4:28 BH down the line after wide block is insane. I try that in training - not an easy shot.

[@TableTennisDaily]

Hey Animaysh, where are you from so I can check your local distributor. Yeah Hugo's backhand just doesn't miss, so good! :)

[@animaysh]

Australia. As you can see, no target pro. The USA site doesn't have it either. Is this old rubber that was replaced by target sound/ultim?

[@srdante100]

Aussie table tennis has it

[@headboom83]

Hugo use a custom blade based on Gatien Absolum with Calderano Foco OFF+ design.

[@svgvitor7489]

Brazil!!!!!!🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@eczavyr2899]

That blade is crazy! What are the downsides to it?

[@Bruh-lw1rw]

What a power from hugo that makes dan to cover his face with his hands

[@TableTennisDaily]

😂😂😂

[@happymario]

Hey Dan ,could you review the thibar wood Cédric Nuytinck 38 wr ,he plays with the wood and is a very kind player.He surely will take time for the review ,coz I already asked him.

[@boriskowas9323]

What blade Hugo used..? Foco+ or foco- ?

[@aerossunico984]

Dan I Beg you ..Plz review the Dhs Hurricane long 5. We would be happy to see it.

[@TableTennisDaily]

Ill see what I can do :)

[@a7lyqq]

DHS long 5 commercial version is a craaaaaap! U need to use national version, specially made one worth 3 times more expensive !

[@ilovemikuzr3567]

Hey Stan. I heard that this is not the blade he was using when he beat Timo, Lin & Harimoto.🤔😳🙄 Whatcha say? Any word from Hugo himself?

[@jcjay184]

where can I buy thses blade?

[@elderoliveira1880]

Brasil... tamo junto!

[@mavrickmenard876]

can you review the Donic Waldner OFF WC89 blade its for my birthday

[@marcioleandrodecarvalhobar6662]

Go Brazil!!!!

[@romanzdk]

what ball did you use?

[@smc_sennpaii999]

How does these blades compare to the infinity

[@llSepultura]

HUGO IS THE BEST

[@TableTennisDaily]

Thanks for the comment, hes unreal!

[@andresludmer]

old sepultura with max was the best... CHAOS AD!

[@charlesfrota7452]

Show!!!

[@gustavosuenaga]

3:42 that was nice

[@TableTennisDaily]

Hehe that forehand was unstoppable!

[@stephenphoenix-roberts9447]

Dan do you have a uk ranking.

[@z0uLess]

Has anyone tried Nittaku Acoustic? Revspin gives it really high scores, but I worry that the grip is too small for me.

[@mrmf4712]

Considering all that muscular power he puts into his shots, this blade (or rubber) must be dead slow. For simple mortals like us the ball wouldn't fly much. And hey, just 82 grams? Interesting to know what is the final weight of Hugo blade he uses in the tournaments.

[@dhavebur]

What do you people think about Nittaku Barwell Fleet + Tenergy05 ?

[@TableTennisDaily]

I've never tried the Nittaku Barwell, will let you know if I try it :)

[@markjmarkjack]

What's your personal blade/rubber choice?

[@flagella1337]

6:03 that's a ridiculous BH.

[@user-kz2xn2it7c]

Goooooooood Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

[@guillerosa1]

What rubber use hugo

[@gustavosuenaga]

15:53 lol

[@smalltako2254]

Handsome Brazil boy lol

[@vish3101]

It's not a review if you have the guy who the blade is named after with you.

[@patrickbruel9017]

Are you really doing a blade review with world n°15 on an outdoor table ? I can imagine it's the brand sponsoring the review that didn't want another table's brand and this one was the only Cornilleau available, but still...strange choice. Anyway great skills demonstration from Hugo.

[@muhammadsohaibimran1402]

Patrick Bruel i think the quality of the table is visible..... Sure, it does say that it's an outdoor table, but this table is legit.

[@rafaeldebize]

Does Hugo use 47 or 50 degree forehand rubber?

[@gustavonovoil7836]

B0leros

[@aquamatic567]

rafaeldebize 6

[@designerdearte5799]

best part 3:52

[@jimmoas]

What rubber does Hugo use? And how many layers of boost? 😆

[@cfc86]

I see hugo use fh cornileau target gt-h47 and bh he use pro gt x-51

[@mihirkarnani2946]

Guess this one gonna be forgotten since his xiom HAL just came out😅

[@josesalazar6317]

Quien sabe que rubers usa hugo calderano

[@jonyer1980]

OMG, how can you do a review of a blade playing on an outdoor table?

[@davidlevy9674]

Is it just me or does Dan play much better with wood blades ?

[@GangdamStyle20]

12.28 that was a tried assassination!!!

[@josesaldias6873]

so Hugo got to #15 in the world using an all-wood blade...and you get to hear people at club level saying that blades like a viscaria are too slow lol

[@ezechueke4949]

👋👏👏👏

[@andresludmer]

Hugo is simply amazing.... what a player!!! I just have one problem....in some pictures and videos of hugo in qatar tournament you can clearly see that the blade is a dark plywood... he is not using the standard foco... why companies sell something that's not the true equipment used by the pro player? In this digital era it's not possible to fool everyone. You only need one person to realize something and post it somewhere... that's it. my only problem with any product you can think of is: don't tell me "this is exactly what (name someone) uses, you can purchase it here". And it is not. I hate that

[@reinaldopessoa2603]

just because the color is different doesn't mean its not the same material.

[@andresludmer]

Reinaldo Pessoa many players use the Standard handle with a custom blade. In sure dan can back this up

Caíque Dutra pingsunday.com/what-is-hugo-calderanos-equipment/

[@andresludmer]

Caíque Dutra well? You saw it?

[@candylaria5414]

Whatever it is he's playing with, I figure he'll soon change to a different one. Either blade or rubber... Have you seen how Pitchford beat him intimidatingly? Viscaria + Tenergy was a lot faster than Hugo's... And consider both him and Pitchford were both BH flickers.😉

[@Sawratkartejas]

U r absolutely right he uses gatien conquest off now he is 6th in world

[@qbingbrothers6998]

you could have played a set and put it in dan vs pro

[@gabrielkasprsak7066]

ta fora do ar ?

[@TheDeepsilver]

He doesn't even play this blade and Dan knows it. Very disappointing. He plays an ABSOLUM OFF+ with the Foco handle plates attached. Dan should've pointed this out during the "review".

[@andresludmer]

Not an absolum either. I have one and its not it. Its something else with a foco+ handle.

[@boriskowas9323]

Realy..???
