Cool machine, but the Racketclub PadelShooter is truly amazing since you can program multiple shots to be fired consequtively to simulate a match situation even better. But price is 3x the slinger bag so...
Yes, a ballmachine is great to train, but not the green Slinger. Very poor reliability, ours after 5 uses with 6-10 hrs doesn't throw the balls out like it should do. We tried everything,....with total full battery, only,....buying different types of balls.... nothing helped. So we are having a 1300€ dust collector behind our courts.
Same to me. Very poor reliability 😢 ours after max 5 uses with a total of 6-10 hrs doesn't put the balls out or with very low speed so that the balls do not pass the net.
@@JimNZ after a few unsuccessful communication attempts I finally got a replacement machine which is a little bit better. But especially in not absolutely dry humidity conditions and using low output speed, it does stop every now and then. Problem is that you have to get the stuck ball out which I do with a dog leash. Another club member at our club already has a replacement as well. I wouldnt recommend buying this machine, and I am pretty sure that there are more people out there experiencing the same issues. As long as it works as designed I really like it and the value is fantastic. When it doesnt I want to burn it...
Hi Sandy, really enjoy your content. I'd love to see a video about ghosting drills to help with footwork and preparation. This would be especially useful because there's no padel courts where I live at the moment, but I still have access to tennis courts. Thanks for considering!
It is so sad that the Slinger is so limited. With todays tecnology it should be so simple to use it with an app instead of the very primitive and limited possibilities. Hopefully the prices of the machines will be lower and the implementation of technology will be more user friendly and still with more options.
The Slinger can’t do that. I think it’s designed to be used more as a personal use machine at a lower price range. The angle of the launcher needs to be manually changed.
