I saw this training aid on Facebook and after watching the ad, thought I'd give it a try to help my wife "feel" what it's like to hit topspin. I hit spin naturally and have strong wrists, but I found my wife continuously struggled with hitting square to the ball when trying to drive it. The setup was easy and instructions clear. I do think transporting the Topspin Pro is not as easy as just throwing it in the provided bag, but we managed to take it to the nearby court one day for a workout.
After just a few minutes of getting the right feel for the motion with your wrist and the smooth arm action aided by the guides, my wife suddenly was hitting beautiful drives with top spin! It does take a while for muscle memory to develop so we spent about an hour just drilling before actually hitting to each other. There were times she made great contact, and I could see the spin she now developed. But then when stressed to react to a shot, she often reverted to her previous swing, so more time is needed. We continued a few more training minutes by working on topspin dinks around the net which she got immediately!
Last night we played in our weekly league and while her drives from the baseline sometimes had good spin and technique, she still needs more training time to get that feel. However, boy were her dinks on!! She hit some incredible touch shots with beautiful spin that scored frequently or set up her opponent for a follow on put away shot.
It is not an inexpensive training aid, and I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who is looking for subtle game improvement. But if you are struggling with the feel of hitting topspin consistently, I highly recommend the Topspin Pro. One last thing, the video lessons sent by email are good and the communication with the company has been outstanding, so they clearly understand customer service!!

Hi there, thank you for your review! Keep practicing and have fun on the court!
Been trying to develop consistent Top Spin serve. In two weeks with Universal Rackets coaching tips and daily spinning sessions on the trainer I have achieved Nirvana. You can teach an old dog new tricks. Great product, Great results, I can run with the Big Dogs finally. Thank You
Hi Mark! Thanks for your feedback. We are glad to be a part of your journey towards becoming a top player and running with the big dogs. All the best,
The topspin pro has been a wonderful addition to my pickleball tool bag! It was a breeze to set up and the instructions were easy to follow. Not only have I seen improvement in my technique and game, but the company has provided numerous emails on how the topspin pro can be utilized for all types of shots on the pickleball court (3rd shot, volley, returns, serves, even hitting slice).
They have outdone themselves!
This product is wonderful and I highly recommend the device for anyone wanting to excel in pickleball!
Hi Janelle! Thank you for your review. We strive to provide valuable resources and tips for our customers, and we are glad that you have found our emails helpful. Happy playing!
Prompt delivery, solid product, easy set-up. Not being a former tennis player, I was not familiar with the effectiveness of topspin or even how to create it until recently. I have already seen an improvement in my forehand after just a few days.
Hi Douglas! Thanks for your feedback. Happy to hear you found the product to be solid and easy to set up 🙂 All the best,
