Reket Donic / Waldner 700

The DONIC Waldner 700 is an advanced offensive-allround table tennis bat developed by DONIC Germany in tribute to the greatest table tennis maestro of all time, Jan-Ove Waldner. Equipped with an innovative Adjustable Balance Point (ABP) system in the handle and high-grip ITTF-approved DONIC Vari Slick 2.0 mm rubbers, this racket allows players to adjust the racket's weight balance toward head-heavy attack or handle-heavy control.

Key Playing Characteristics

• Patented ABP Technology: Adjustable Balance Point system in the handle lets players dial in head balance for explosive smashes or handle balance for delicate touch.
• DONIC Vari Slick 2.0 mm Rubbers: High-friction tournament topsheets deliver exceptional spin rotation on opening loops and fast push-counters.
• Tactic 5-Ply Offensive Wood Core: Harmonious wood composition absorbs high-speed impacts while providing decisive punch power.
• Ergonomic Flared Grip: Ergonomically shaped handle fits the hand seamlessly, facilitating quick wrist snap on forehand flicks.
