Hugo KLCI (85g) with Trinity Dynamic 2.0 (Joola USA sent me 2.0 instead of max by mistake) and Tronix ACC max. Cut to this blade the sheet of Dynamic is about 50g and the Tronix is about 49g, 2 layers of DHS No.15 on the sponge and one on the blade. I'll have a knock with the setup tonite

I have a sheet of Xiom C52.5 laying around and I will take side-by-side photos soon. Out of the pack the two seem pretty similar in terms of physical appearance: thick top sheet with very short pimples, small pore sponge. Topsheet has mild stickiness and appears semi-matte, similar to rubbers like DNA Hybrid, V15Sticky and C52.5

@Matt Hetherington Should we expect the Calderano Ary-x to be released soon-ish? Is that something you can share?

I've got some money to spend on table tennis and I want to try the Trinity Charged and Dynamic. I think they'd go well with a new blade, and since I'm from Brazil, I'm going all Calderano, but the currently released blades are not what I want to play with.

I understand if that info is not to be released yet, thank you!

so whats going on with joola hugo blades? will they ever get released at this point?
They are planned to launch July 22nd. They are currently out of production and being packaged. The production time is quite long and while Hugo was making up his mind about what to use we had to wait for his decision, so it set the timeline a little later :)

Ask Hugo next time to think faster :)

July 22nd would coincide with Brazil's Star Contender. Good timing, especially if Hugo manages to do well in it. I don't know if there'll be shops at the venue, but it'd be quite nice to get one there.

I think Joola Brasil should be there in some capacity 😇
