Training balance
by Stephen -
The Amicus Prime Robot is a unique tool for a table tennis player. While the dual wheels and programmability are state of the art, the key is that it can impart an elevated understanding of the game when combined with the training programs supplied by Amicus partner, National Team Coach, Stefan Feth. Until recently, U.S. table tennis has languished behind the rest of the world due to the belief that the key to the game was stroking technique and tactics. Based upon his top-tier international training, Stefan has identified balance and the linking of shots as foundations of the game -- foundations which can be uniquely developed, improved and mastered using the Amicus Prime Robot.
Spend the money, you'll notice the difference!

Love my purchase! So easy to use. Reliable and easy to open to set up the robot. Light weight and very consistent options for placement etc. Very sturdy and dependable.
Called the US distributor for help and they were very friendly and available.
Thanks for supporting such a solid product. Best purchase for training and fun. Glad I spent the money for this higher end product. You wont be disappointed.
