Although some 20 million Americans play "ping pong", few really know what the sport of table tennis is all about. The biggest difference is understanding spin. Spin is what separates ping pong from table tennis. Learning about spin greatly enhances your enjoyment of the sport.

Robo-pong is the number one training aid for table tennis. It permits you to learn about spin. You can set it up at home and learn at your own rate and speed. With Newgy Robo-Pong Training Manual, you have an easy to follow tutorial for learning table tennis basics — everything from learning what racket is best for applying spin to learning how to return serves carrying complex combination spins.

The manual features state-of-the-art stroboscopic photographs that are one of a kind. These special photos clearly illustrate the basic strokes and serves of table tennis. They show an action from start to finish in one frame and convey a sense of flow from one phase of the action to the next. They are perfect for capturing the almost imperceptible acceleration and racket angle changes that occur during a stroke.

There are also specific sections that cover how to:

• Have lots of fun with the robot — games and entertainment for the entire family!
• Use the robot for rewarding exercise — the fun way to weight control and peak fitness!
• Make the robot do what you want — ways to adjust the robot to get the shots you want.
• Choose the proper equipment — trouble-free enjoyment from the game and the robot!

Table tennis is an extremely fun and rewarding sport that can be played by everyone — young and old, male or female, physically challenged or able-bodied. If you’re a beginner who is first learning the sport or an accomplished tournament player, Robo-Pong and Newgy Robo-Pong Training Manual will serve as an unbeatable combination for greater success and enjoyment of table tennis.
