Abstract : In 2007 DAΦNE was upgraded to operate in a regime of large Piwinski angle, with a novel IR optics, reduced vertical beta at the interaction point, and additional sextupoles providing for crab waist collisions. The specific luminosity was boosted by more than a factor of four, and the peak luminosity was more than doubled with respect to the maximum value obtained with the original collider configuration. The DAΦNE commissioning as well as the first experience with large Piwinski angle and crab waist collisions scheme will be reported.
