Cameron from San Diego has a lot of experience in this
sport, and a lot of experience with robots (he now owns 3:
A Paddle Palace V988; another that I don't remember, and now the Smart
Pong). He tells me that he is very
happy with the SmartPong that he bought. He
bought it from the Dandoy website. He
said he is very happy with the machine and the customer service.
Apparently the robot was shipped from Japan to San Diego in 3 days.
I didn't even know that was possible.
Apparently there was an issue with one of the parts; and Dandoy
immediately sent a replacement part free of charge.
Cameron says that the machine does resemble a Newgy but is
actually thicker and heavier. The
remote control works great, it really can send you one type of spin after
another just like in the video. It
is programmable in that you can program one type of spin after another, 360
degrees around the head. It can
even adjust for speed in the program. The
head rotates 360 degrees just like the Newgy.
However, it cannot make dead balls (it has only 1 wheel), and also spin
and speed are not independent. The
faster you set the speed, the more spin there will also be.
There were no issues with speed of ball feed, it can go as
slow as you need up to faster than anyone can handle. Marco Borrillo
