KsportsTennis Rebounder Net – Multi Racket Sports Trainer for Tennis, Pickleball, Padel, Squash & Racquetball – Quick Assembly, Portable with Carry Bag

There are so many great things to say about the Ksports Tennis Rebounder Net that it's hard to list all of its attributes. First of all it fills a genuine need for affordable, repeatable, and realistic training for tennis players of all levels.For beginners, it introduces the concepts of ball tracking, eye-hand coordination, proper racket grip, racket face contact, racket sweet spot feel, shot rhythm/timing, shot aim, and confidence.For intermediate players, it is fantastic for proper stroke form, forehand to backhand transition, topspin, follow through, accelerating the racket through the ball, and gradual ramping up of power.For advanced players, it's great for practicing full power shots while maintaining accuracy, feel for finesse drop shots and slices, consistency and focus, warm up before matches, experimenting with subtle changes in grip or technique, and aerobic fitness (you can work up a good sweat by alternating forehand and back hand with power).For coaches, schools, and tennis training facilities, the player can be observed or videoed close by from all angles as the ball self-feeds freeing the coach to examine the player rather than feed balls from afar, less time picking up or tripping over dozens of scattered balls (you really only need one at a time), immediate feedback on what feels and sounds like good strokes, and the muscle memory gained from hundreds of good ball strikes per training session.The product is designed very well with the net absorbing the energy of full-power tennis shots, adjustable net tension for different racket sports, easy no-tool snap-together assembly, sturdy yet light weight frame, reinforcement by the tension of the net itself, adjustable pivoting rebound plank for tuning of return height and speed, and portability if disassembled.This rebounder is superior to the alternatives. There are some other more expensive training devices out there that are not nearly as dynamic and realistic, can damage your racket strings with miss hits, and will quickly wear out over time. If you try practicing against a solid vertical brick wall, the return ball becomes more and more difficult to handle once you add power and topspin, thus limiting improvement.However, with this rebounder device the ball returns in a controlled manner like a very patient and expensive tennis coach is feeding you balls. As the ball rolls down the net it gains topspin, thus simulating the most common spin you will have to deal with on the court.My favorite drill is alternating 2 forehand shots, 2 backhand shots, 2 forehand shots, etc, etc with the first shot at moderate pace with a focus on accuracy, and the second shot a full power game winner shot with full follow through (i.e. ripping it!). The first evening I had this rebounder, I was already returning 50 shots in a row with improved consistency, improved form, better topspin, and more smooth power. I feel like I am getting a lot out of each practice session with up to hundreds of good strikes to train eye-hand coordination and ingrain muscle memory, perhaps an even better training experience than playing against a poorly matched opponent on the court.I mainly use it first bounce off the plank to fit one end of my basement gym where it doesn't require much room. If you use it outdoors, it is rather light so in breezy conditions you might have to sandbag the base and/or zip tie the top to a fence. It is possible that it could be used as an outdoor target for practicing your serve. Although you can certainly use official regulation tennis balls, I prefer softer (orange and yellow marked) junior training balls because they compress more and thus make a loud popping sound with a sweet-spot full-power strike (good auditory feedback), it's easier to observe induced topspin backspin and side spin, they don't wear out as fast since they are already "dead", and for long training sessions with hundreds of powerful strikes the softer tennis balls are less likely to result in overuse injury, such as the dreaded tennis elbow.If you have the rebounder set up on a slick tile surface, one inch strips of Velcro applied to the floor behind each front foot will prevent it from walking back with powerful shots and also mark its optimal position should you need to move it for any reason. The center of the net should either be flat or concave (adjusting the included elastic cords). If the center is too taut and there is a speed bump hump, power shots could deflect over the back stop, so a little center slack is best. The angle of the net is not pivot adjustable (which helps keep it sturdy). I experimented with propping up the back feet of the base on 1-1/2" wooden blocks to increase return speed and it remained stable, but I decided that the stock net angle was already very well-optimized. Mine came with 6" vertical extensions to raise the height which I have so far not needed to install, but would add second bounce height from the floor.Customer service has been very responsive. The value is incredible for the amount of tennis skill, ball speed, accuracy, topspin, confidence, and consistency I have gained in a short period of time.

I bought two of the ksport rebounders, one as a gift and other for personal use. This has been a game changer for me to help refine my swing and make it muscle memory. It has really helped me keep my raquet squared at contact by making sure ball goes up the middle of the canvas. Along with all the groundstrokes,I can also practice my serves indoor. This is great to have during bad weather or no tennis partner. I can even pull it in front of a television and play while I watch. I like this more than a hard backboard because you can hit the ball as hard as you want and it will come back at a consistent speed to help you work on your form and timing. Setting up the frame was straight forward for me. The part that may take little longer is knowing how to adjust the bungee cords to allow proper tension. If you follow the suggestions for specific raquet sport in the instruction manual, it will work as intended. Here are my pointers for tennis:1. For all strap points use the under the bar strap technique. This will allow the canvas to droop or be lower than the metal bars which will help guide the ball down and not fly off the edges if roll there.2. At strap point B, keep it loose to allow it to absorb impact of the ball better3. Doing first two steps for me works great, but if you want the ball to come back little slower, you could use the over the bar strap technique at strap point C to make that area more level allowing ball to linger on top little longer before rolling down.4. If use indoor with real tennis ball, swing at 75% or lower for better control to prevent accidental framing of ball potentially breaking something. Alternatively, I use a stress foam ball to hit at 100% indoors. Outdoors, fire away!5. Concentrate on your unit turn, with full take back and completely following through each swing like you would on court. This is hard at first but the consistent return pace of the rebounder will help you get faster at it. Keep the raquet face squared at contact and hit ball dead center of canvas at impact. Seeing the ball rolling up the canvas straight up middle, you know you on the right track. Once get that down, can try changing angle of raquet at contact to work on hitting to corners for cross court shots.Compared to other similar rebounders, it is the lowest price I have seen. The quality was way way better than I expected. If use indoors, it will probably last forever. The only minor negative is you may have to lift a pinky to take apart and put in the included carry bag for storage when guests come for dinner. I cut some old tennis balls for the feet to help me slide this out of the way easily. Other than that, for any raquet sport enthusiast who wants to practice/work out at any time of the day, I highly recommend the Ksport Rebounder! Happy Hitting!

1st off it’s pretty big. It is easy to set up and easy to use.My daughter plays tennis and I don’t. I was able to use it myself. You can hit the balls as hard as you want , it absorbs the shock and sends them back consistently.Only gripe- it prob slows them down a little too much . It would be nice if they could bounce just little higher for a variety of swings
