Reviews

I've practiced tennis all my life and know how important it is to use technique to make it stick. Just had the opportunity to try TopspinPro and wish I had discovered it sooner! Now both me and my tennis playing kids can practice technique and fundamentals at home, really fun and easy! Highly recommended regardless of ambition level.

Anna Wassgren, tennis player since 30 years

I serve 60 times a day with ServeMaster and have noticed an improvement in just a few weeks. Yesterday I played a match and felt so confident when I served.

Recommendation

Axel Holm, tennis coach Båstad Tennissällskap

We now use TopspinPro on a daily basis in our training activities. It is a very educational training tool that allows our players to progress faster. Works both as a way for beginners to learn the basics of overspin and "understand" the technique itself, but also so great for all players regardless of level to work with daily to develop their basic strokes.
