Based on the best-selling Ovtcharov Senso V1 and Waldner Senso Carbon blades, DONIC have now designed a carbon blade which has a relatively soft feeling on contact with the ball.
Well thought out and carefully processed: The walnut outer veneers provide the required speed and hardness for an attacking, offensive game. The medium hard Scandinavian pine middle veneer causes high tension within the blade resulting in supreme dynamic and power possibilities. However, perhaps what is most remarkable considering that this is a fast offensive blade, is its exceptional feeling and amazing ball control qualities.
Two thin carbon middle layers and the Abachi middle veneer completes this top quality blade that is in a class of its own.In combination with the Senso handle technology, a relatively soft carbon blade has been made with extremely good feeling - a model designed and then further enhanced on the basis of the best-selling Waldner Senso Carbon blade. Compared to the Waldner Senso Carbon, the new Ovtcharov Soft Carbon V1 is slightly more direct when hitting the ball which results in even more speed. However at the same time even when playing short balls or a passive game you won't miss out on control.

These are my impressions using tacky rubber on the forehand and tension rubber on the backhand. As expected, this blade's top ply is walnut, and it matched really well with tacky rubber. It also has carbon in it, so it flies properly when you hit hard, but since the control is good, it stays put nicely in the short game. The blade is thin, so it flexes and makes it easy to get spin. I think it works fine with pretty much any tension rubber too.

I used to play with a carbon blade before, but my topspin drives wouldn't dip and I couldn't block properly, so I switched back to an all-wood blade. This one, though, is different from your typical carbon blade.
Even though it's carbon, I can control it well and my drives actually dip. The big thing is that blocking became so much easier — I just need to set the angle and it goes in.
And on top of that, it still has that carbon bounce, so when I swing through fully I can get some real speed.
It's a strange sort of blade, but it turned out to be exactly what I'd been looking for.
