  1. Is the Pongbot Nova S Pro a god training partner for advanced play?

    I wasn't using a single set of settings to get max speed and spin. I was using two different settings: one for max spin and another for max speed. This was just to see what the maximum I could get from the robot for both were. It makes sense that, as there is a max power output from the machine...
  2. Is the Pongbot Nova S Pro a god training partner for advanced play?

    I think that when a player (not the robot) increases speed there is less dwell on the ball, which means less spin and vice-versa: when you increase spin, you increase dwell time and the speed suffers. In that sense your power either goes into spin or speed, or a combination but the amount of...
  3. Is the Pongbot Nova S Pro a god training partner for advanced play?

    I used ultra slow motion footage to compare the speed and spin of the Pongbot Nova S Pro to top WTT players to see if it is a good training partner for advanced play and to see if it is just good for my level of play, which I consider to be good club level play.
  4. I improved my game gainst pimples using slow and ultra slow motion footage of Wang Manu Vs Honoka Hashimoto, and drills on pongbot nova s pro robot.

    I don't know his winning ratio against short pips attackers. Hashimoto's main play is defence but she's a very competent attacker. Against Wang Manu, she needed to be strong in her attack to keep Manyu under pressure. That's just my assessment though. I may be wrong. As per the video, I used to...

  6. Pongbot Nova S Pro owners' review and discussion thread

    I haven't used my Nova S Pro for a few weeks. I just set it up and when I connect to my phone, I get a message telling me the robot is offline. I've tried re-starting my internet, turning everything including the modem off and on again, but it still isn't connecting. Has anyone had this issue...
  7. Should I replace my Rasanter C48 with a NUZN rubber?

    Thanks, I've heard bad reviews of the NUZN 48. How does what you say translate to performance? The C48 is great for blocking countering and looping. Is the NUZN 50 good in the same way but faster, due to the extra tensor feeling?
  8. Should I replace my Rasanter C48 with a NUZN rubber?

    I've been using the Rasanter C48 on my forehand for just over a year. It's had a lot of use and is a bit worn. Should I replace it like for like or should I get the NUZN 50 instead? Are they similar? Does anyone know the advantages / disadvantages of making this change?
