Taking table tennis to a new level...

I recently received a table tennis robot from one of my friends. I am so excited and I can't wait to use it for the first time. Because of my tight schedule between classes and studying I don't have much time to work on my table tennis. And when I feel the need to practice there is no one around to play against.

In my residence there is not a lot of guys who like to work on their table tennis game, they usually just pitch for a match and play. So I will never be able to work on my technique with a partner because the way it usually works is, a lot of guys show up to play table tennis and than you have to start playing matches otherwise the waiting period is going to be too long for the players in line.

Now I have this wonderful machine that I'm borrowing this week, just for me. I will be able to work on my footwork and a variety of forehand and backhand strokes. The nice thing about the table tennis robot is that you can adjust the shooting frequency, the placement of the ball and the spin on the ball. All of the different settings are sent via remote, so you don't have to walk all the way to the robot to change the settings. You can even program this machine to shoot balls in a sequence making it possible for you to practice different drills.
