TopspinPro Tennis Training Aid – Learn Topspin Fast for Effortless Power & Control | Portable Home Practice Tool | Used by 500K+ Players & Coaches Worldwide

This contraption is pretty cool. It forces you to brush up against the ball, creating topspin. You can learn some topspin technique and develop muscle memory using this product. It feels nice to hit. There are a few problems, however. I think it would be better if the plastic arms and attached sail could be removable, as not everyone likes to hit the ball with such a brushing motion. Also, the fixed nature of the side arms and attached sail prevent you from practicing other types of swings (e.g. flat shots, slice, volleys, etc.) Some players, even top professionals, hit out through the ball a bit more, in which case the racket would be banging up against the side brackets each time. For example, if Federer hit a one handed backhand on this, the racket would hit the sides on the follow through. When you watch videos of players from the side, you can see that not all the strokes would work for this product. This would not be a problem if we had the option of removing the side brackets and sail, but alas, it is fused in and unremovable. Another problem is that the rubber band that holds the arm in place wore down pretty quickly. After a weekend of use, the rubber band wore down and broke. There was only one extra band provided. I wrote the website for the company to request additional bands, and initially, there was no response. If you want additional bands, you can order similar looking bungee cords from Amazon, and tie them yourself to replace. Still, it is a lot of hassle, when they can just provide you with a bunch of extra bands, fairly cheaply. I also bought the Eye Coach. The Eye Coach is fairly versatile, and you can practice many different kinds of swings on it. However, the swing arm on the Eye Coach is fairly heavy, and it causes some stress on your arm to hit it repeatedly. By comparison, the Topspin Pro has a lighter swing arm, and feels very satisfying to hit. Furthermore, the spinning mechanism on the Topspin Pro is much smoother, so you can see the topspin much better, and adjust your swing accordingly. The Topsin Pro is also much quieter to hit. When you hit the Eye Coach, it is quite loud, and you can hear people banging away on it from upstairs. However, they both have their uses. I should note that I initially wrote a worse review for the Topspin Pro, due to the problem with the bands, and lack of customer response. I was impressed that recently, the inventor of the device wrote me a personal email to apologize for the oversight, and he assured me he would take care of the problem. He reports that the band problem has been fixed, and the material used is now much more durable. They are also looking into updating the design in the future based on customer feedback.

Works great and is a good tool to improve form. Our team uses it daily!

Great for practice as well as for a "tennis workout"

The spring breaks easily. If you are buying for a child less than 12 it may show benefits. The unit now sits in closet collecting dust. My unit broken. Didn't last 3 months. I am a 58 year old that hit it without using much power at all and the spring return broke. I don't recommend this product. Way overpriced!!! Way too flimsy. UPDATE!!!!!!!. The above is my previous post. I am changing my rating from 1 star to 4 as this is still an ongoing situation and I feel the need to be fair to the manufacturer. I must say that Topspin is trying to do the right thing. Their customer service response has been quick, sincere, and gracious. Their customer service is worthy of a 5 star rating. I am not sure why my first attempt for fairness did not get a response??? May have been missed by my error. spam mail? I am not sure??? However... With That being said I will like to add comments to my post. First, I must be clear. there is no spring, but a bungee cord mechanism that is easily replaceable if it wears. Topspin is sending me replacement bungee cords free of charge, they also sent me a video and the fix is simple and fast. It is unfair to say that the unit does not hold up to reasonable usage at this point. I may have had a bad bungee cord. it must have snapped somehow because I never saw it after the attached ball failed to bounce back I will try using the unit again and repost my outcome. I will say, I did enjoy the unit when I first bought it. I hit in my garage during the cold months in preparation for the upcoming spring. As far as the price... that is subjective and can be more fairly rated if I get more use and years out of the unit. For that unknown I am taking off 1 star. So lets close out by saying my jury is still out on the quality of the unit. However the folks at Topspin deserve a reevaluation. I strongly feel that all customer service posts on this site deserves a fair assessment otherwise I am doing all involved an injustice. Thank you Topspin for your integrity and sincere efforts in working with me on this matter. I look forward to updating further.

The build quality is surprisingly good-all metal stand pieces are grind and polished. I would say it is a little price but still the best choice in the market. It is very easy to use, and really helpful to shape your hitting action. One thing I would like to mention is that when you hit the ball not in the sweet zone, it is possible to damage your racquet from hitting the metal arm attached to the ball, maybe manufacture could add some soft protection on that area.

Love this topspin pro. It works very well. Only complain I have is about the replacement piece/pin while practicing, the pin tends to fall off easily. Unless one is watching very closely, it is very difficult to be able to find it. Given that the equipment comes with a single spare, I don't know what to do if I ever lose the last pin i have. Edit: I edited this to lower my rating to a '2'. The device is useful, however, it does keeps loosing the pin atleast once every month. Currently being used only by my son. The pin at the very end of the rod that holds the ball keeps coming off. It is very difficult to locate, sometimes we find it, and once we did not and I have already used my spare and we haven't even had this for 3 months. I have not seen this complaint from others, makes me think that I may have gotten a defective piece. (this is not the bungee i am talking about).

So, there are 2 or 3 issues with this device. 1) you will need to put weights on the legs are this thing will travel around your room 2) it requires a non-usable stroke geometry, or you will hit the upper fence. It's not off by much, but you will rarely ever produce a stroke that is entirely vertical. 3) the ball needs to be set back about 3-4 more inches from the nets. I cut and welded an extension and now it is perfect. You can swing thru the shot, which is how to improve So, I removed the upper fence, added the 3 inch addition, and I can pull off federer-esque shots! haha! I hope they keep developing this device, because it is otherwise great.

It took me 3 months to decide on whether to buy this or not. I already bought the servemaster tennis tool (which yes, could’ve saved money and used socks/balls, but that’s another review) and wasn’t sure I needed to buy another tennis aid/gadget especially at a price above $100. Finally, I decided based on reviews to buy it. There are 4 of us in my family that play tennis. My boys 9, 6, 5 have all used this. When we got it out of the box, we had to set it up and attach the ball (slide it in). It comes with a carrying case. I find that handy because I put this in my car and bring to the courts so that when I am hitting with one of the boys, one of the remaining can hit with this while another works on serves. During rainy days, they use it indoors. It’s easy to use...you try to swipe the ball so that it spins without trying to push the ball (kind of like the swipers on a windshield). Besides topspin, to have great control in tennis, one tip is to have the ball on your strings as long as possible when doing a stroke. Summary of best pros: easy to transport, easy to set up, easy to use, and serves its purpose. I haven’t yet taken it off it’s base to work on serves. Con: Still wish it were cheaper. It gets boring as every repetitive activity unless you are totally obsessed. Short intervals or a few min every day should help build the muscle memory. As an adult the learning curve is lower than kids in my opinion and it helps to close my eyes every few swipes to remember the feeling. I’ve added a video of my 5 year old using this.

Professionisti usano , Ottimo per imparare a sfiorare pallina ed ottimizzare i colpi in campo. Aiuta tantissimo

Ich habe mir den Topspin Pro zugelegt, um meine Topspin-Technik (Vorhand und Rückhand) abseits des Platzes zu verbessern. Nach einer längeren Nutzungsphase bin ich überzeugt, dass das Gerät seinen Zweck erfüllt. ​Wichtig vorab: Dieses Gerät ersetzt keinen Trainer, aber es ist ein praktisches Werkzeug, um die korrekte Bewegung zu automatisieren. Wenn man täglich nur wenige Minuten übt, merkt man schnell einen Effekt. ​✅ Neutrale Bewertung der Vorteile ​Hilfreich für die Technik: Das Gerät hilft tatsächlich dabei, das Gefühl für den richtigen Schlägerwinkel und die Aufwärtsbewegung (Bürsten) zu finden, die für einen konstanten Topspin nötig ist. ​Spart Zeit: Gerade für Spieler, die nicht täglich auf dem Platz stehen, können die kurzen Einheiten zu Hause Trainingszeit sparen, da die Basisbewegung gefestigt wird. ​Gut für Kinder: Auch unser Sohn hat damit Spaß und es ist eine einfache Methode, um ihm die grundlegende Topspin-Bewegung beizubringen. ​Einfache Handhabung: Der Aufbau ist sehr leicht und schnell erledigt. Die Stabilität ist ausreichend, selbst bei kräftigeren Schlägen. ​Vielseitig nutzbar: Kann gut für Vorhand, Rückhand und zur Visualisierung des Kontakts beim Aufschlag genutzt werden. ​Haltbarkeit: Der Ball hält gut, er musste bisher nicht ausgetauscht werden. ​➖ Neutrale Bewertung der Nachteile ​Kostenfaktor: Das Gerät ist relativ teuer in der Anschaffung. Man sollte sich bewusst sein, dass es eine Ergänzung und kein Ersatz für Training ist. ​Fazit: ​Der Topspin Pro ist ein funktionales und gut durchdachtes Trainingsgerät. Wer bereit ist, den Preis zu zahlen und das Gerät konsequent nutzt, wird definitiv eine Verbesserung in der Konstanz und im Gefühl für den Topspin feststellen.

I hesitated if it will be helphul but happy with the purchase, am practicing at home to understand and feel the nuances.

Great training tool; well made, easy to assemble. Use and results are more subtle at intermediate and advanced levels but there nonetheless, whereas for newbies or lower level players cause and effect are far more apparent.

Tveksam nytta med den träningen tycker jag. Kanske mer nytta för riktiga nybörjare.
