What’s a good ball machine to play alone?

Hi Lieng,

There is a wide variety of robots and usually their price tends to go hand in hand with the functionality.

It depends on what you want to spend. The basic ones will feed the ball out to you in one position and with one type of spin.  The more advanced ones will be able to change spin, speed and direction with each ball and remember a sequence of types of balls to feed out.

Take a look at our Blog on Table Tennis Robots.  It doesn't have suggestions about specific types but I think it covers some areas of learning.

#46 - Tournament Preparation 2

In the first week of your preparation we focused on the consistency of your third ball attack. This week, since the third ball is so important, we are going to continue working on this. However this week we are going to focus on placement. It is really important tactically to think about where you are going to play the ball. We build upon the drills from last week so you can improve the effectiveness of your third ball through placement.
