Tandem Sport Spike Pal - Volleyball Hitting Technique Trainer - Volleyball Training Equipment for Solo Practicing - Returns Ball After Every Swing - Adjustable Elastic Cord

Primary thing you need to take away from this, is that it is high quality and great value. Very happy I purchased this for my daughter 5'11" HS volleyball player. It is a perfect height when the hoop is raised to the offical 10'. The thing is awesome for pounding !!Adjustments -The Hook to attach the strap / ball to the rim is small. It would not go around the large HD rim I have. If I had a rope net, I would attach the connector to the rope net .. over time this would wear and break the net but how soon would depend on how many times and how much power the ball was "served". I have an old school metal chain net which would have broken on the first hit so I used a large "D" ring from the dollar store to connect the ball to the rim. If you don't have a dollar store near by, get a really cheap large one from Amazon or even a bent up coat hanger will do.The ball must be hit from the side, player must run directly parrallel to the backboard, so side to side room is required if you need to practice running up and hitting the ball. If your off center a little then the ball will loop around and go in the basket. This is good and bad .. You can hit it a few more times but after a while you need to untangle the ball from the net / rim. Good from the point of view that it forces the player to be perfect with their hit. <wink>Anyway - defintately worth the puchase. Very Happy.

In theory these seems great. However, to fit a standard ball into the holder was quite a chore. In order to fit the ball has to be squashed and will need to stay like that in the setup. Within the first 30 minutes of using in the spring clip broke as well. Would not recommend.

Broke after just a couple weeks. Caribiner hook barely fit on hoop.

I hung it up in a basketball hoop rim and was hotting it softly at first and it seemed to be working fine so I used more and more force until I was using the same force I would use during a real volleyball game. However, after hitting the ball with a few hard spikes, the metal clip part broke and would no longer stay properly closed.

I would buy a stronger caribiner to supplement this. My Daughter is an 8th grader and has broken two so far with the hits! But def a good training tool!

Daughter and her friends love this. Getting more use than our basketball hoop alone was

Great for starters to develop the spike run.

Works well

Clip broken after 2nd hit, poor quality
