The Wotofo Recurve Dual RDA From New Vaping.
New Vaping sell a full range of vape gear and supplies, from starter kits Mods all the way through to more advanced items such as RDA (Rebuildable Dripper Atomisers) and RTA (Rebuildable Tank Atomisers). And were kind enough to send out one of their latest additions from Wotofo, The Recurve Dual RDA, which was a collaboration between the YouTube Review Mike Vapes & Wotofo. This item was sent to me free of charge for the purpose of this review,
Introduction to the Recurve Dual RDA
Wotofo and YouTuber Mike Vapes collaborated to create the Wotofo recurve dual RDA. It is a rebuildable drip atomizer with a dual coil. The Recurve Dual design intensifies the flavorful cloud production. Postless, quad terminal build-deck and external chassis together enhance the look of the RDA.

Recurve Dual RDA: Build For Flavorful Cloud Buildup
Recurve Dual is a double coil RDA with a unique design allowing you to enjoy the best flavor and cloud production. It has dual coils with multi-hole airflow slots. Superior Stainless-steel construction makes the RDA strong and durable.
The 24mm impact-resistant RDA fits any bottom feed device. Preinstalled 11mm 810 Resin drip tip adds a nice feel to the lips while vaping. Irrespective of the wattage setting, the drip tip never gets too hot. The curve on the cap continues up to a standard frosted 12mm wide bore drip tip also included in the kit.
There are six airflow inlets horizontal to the deck center on each side of the deck and cap. The inlets are bigger than the Recurve original. Good air passage inside the tank results in better clouds and flavor. The build-deck well is deep enough to hold a fair amount of liquid.
The Recurve 24 Dual RDA can handle both round wires, built and prebuilt Clapton. Also, the box contains two coils with a single build resistance of 0.26ohm and dual build resistance of 0.13ohm.
Includes a Gold plated 510 standard pin attached at the base of recurve dual. Those looking for squonking can use the extra 510 gold plated squonk pin.
Wotofo Recurve Dual RDA box comes with multiple accessories like coils, vape cotton. standard 510 pin, O-rings, cotton, and a special coil trimming tool.

Design and Build.
The top cap section or the barrel body of the Recurve has been manufactured out of one solid piece of stainless Steele, rather than a barrel and then a section top cap. As the normal requirement to rotate the top cap to adjust the airflow has been removed, by adding the airflow section to the build deck it’s self. Which gives the Recurve Dual a really solid feel to it.
The branding on the Recurve has been kept simple and clean, with just a simple Recurve Logo engraved onto the lower edge of the of the top cap.
The Recurve Dual comes with a choice of Drip tips, the 810 frosted curved tip, or the resin lower profile coloured drip tip.
The stainless steel base section features a 510 threaded connection, with Wotofo branding and the Mike Vapes logo etched around the 510 connection.
The sides of the RDA house a pair of Philips head screws recessed on either side, which are well sized and allows you to tighten down even the biggest builds.
The Recurve Build deck features two claw like air flow control posts rising up off the deck, with each post having six downward slanting air holes, which when aligned with the matching holes in the top cap, allows you to fine fune you airflow, from wide open to, nice a tight.
The build deck features a post less drop-in deck. Allowing for easy builds, with space for some of the fats wire builds.
One of the issues with the post less Drop-In design, is getting the coil legs the right length, but the Recurve comes with a super useful tool, for measuring the length of the legs of the coil, so that they can be cut to the exact length required.
With the Recurve it is recommended that you cut the legs to 7mm, to allow them to sit just the right height of the deck, to maximise airflow and flavour.
Squonk & Non-Squonk
The Recurve comes with a choice of a solid preinstalled gold plated pin, or the hollow Squonk pin.
The spork pin allows the juice to gain direct access to the deep set juice well, where the Colton sits either side, delivering a great squonking experience.
The Recurve Dual Build.
Once you have cut your coil tails to 7mm, and backed off the side screws, the coils just drop in place, I found holding the coils in place whilst tightening up the screws prevented them from twisting out of shape.
The coils can then be tweaked into place, placing them both close together in the middle of the deck,
Due to the wide open deck, it is super easy to thread the cotton through.
Then just cut the cotton off level with the sides of the deck.
And carefully tuck the cotton in place, down into the juice well
Flavour & Clouds ⛅️
With the right build, and cotton, the flavour that you get from the Recurve RDA is absolutely spot on, and super on point. The flavour seems to be intensified by the positioning of the coils closer to the center of the deck, directly inline with the airflow.
With the airflow wide open, the air hits directly onto the sides of the coils, then up out of the drip tip. And running the supplied coils at around 85w this thing is a vapor machine, although with the airports connecting to the deck and also connecting with the sides of the RDA you do get quite a bit of heat transfer, and the RDA does tend to heat up a bit, becoming warm to to the touch.
Final thoughts.
Absolutely love this RDA, and would definitely be recommending it to anyone who is looking for an easy to to build on dual coil RDA, with amazing flavour, with large airflow.
