The moment I picked up this blade, the first thing that struck me was the handle. It's a game-changer! The unique design had me puzzled initially about which side was meant for the forehand. But after some experimentation, I found that placing my thumb on the side with the Donic logo just felt right. It gives a snugger fit, and there's a subtle bulge where the thumb rests, which is a brilliant touch. This little elevation allows for better power transfer when I'm executing those backhand strokes, giving me an edge during intense rallies.
Compared to the traditional FL handle, the Dotec handle is noticeably thicker. It's crafted from a material that resembles the cork of a fine wine bottle porous and excellent at absorbing sweat. As someone with sweaty palms, this feature is a godsend. It keeps my grip firm and consistent throughout the game, without any slippage or discomfort.
In terms of rubber combination, I paired it with the Xiom Vega China VM on the forehand and the Butterfly Rozena on the backhand. This pairing has been a revelation. The blade and rubber work in harmony to deliver a sublime looping experience. The balls just seem to glide off the racket with precision and power, allowing me to place my shots exactly where I want them.
One of the most noticeable differences is the weight. This setup is at least 10 grams lighter than my previous racket, and it shows. The increased maneuverability has given my game a new level of fluidity. I can now react quicker to those fast-paced shots and execute my strokes with more finesse.
Overall, the Donic Waldner Dotec Carbon blade has exceeded my expectations. It's not just a piece of equipment; it's a tool that has enhanced my performance on the table. If you're looking to take your table tennis game to the next level, I highly recommend giving this blade a try. It might just be the upgrade you've been searching for. ?

The DONIC Dotec System is the first wood technology without awkward edges.Since the human hand does not have hard edges, DONIC wanted to develop a smooth blade without sharp edges.It was, therefore, important to ensure a completely smooth transition between blade and handle.
The handle: The DONIC Dotec model has a totally different handle to previous bats.The handle is made out of one piece, surrounded by natural cork. There are different versions for right and left handers.
DONIC Waldner Dotec Carbon The combination of Carbon, Limba, Balsa and Dotec ensure an extraordinary synthesis of speed and control. Despite of the enormous potential for speed, quick topspins and smashes, the ball control for touch shots and slower play is remarkable with this blade.
Speed: 93
Control: 75

Reviews of Donic Waldner Dotec Carbon (14)
Love this rubber- easy to control with enough speed for any intermediate player. A more advanced tournament player will probably want more pure speed and spin. Great for learning strokes and footwork as it is very controllable. Master player Ti Long on YouTube uses this on forehand, so is certainly up to specs for a pro as well.
First Donic blade, the handle enables my previously useless backhand attack to be lethal, even with low over net shots, and I can get terrific speed and whip from forehand loop attack, while keeping push/ chop returns nice and low. Using with Rakza soft rubber I get amazing feel of the ball and control. Beyond my wildest dreams really, suddenly Im winning matches I would have lost.
