Dunlop Tennis Speed Ball The perfect teaching and training ball With the same weight and rebound as a standard tennis ball, the SpeedBall’s larger size slows the speed of flight, helping players learn proper stroke mechanics Increases the speed by which players can learn proper tennis strokes Helps players hit with a full swing, increasing racquet head speed
Customer Review: Perfect for youngsters
The large foam ball travels slowly through the air making it ideal for new learners. It also cannot be hit too hard so it stays within the fences. Large ball makes it easier to see and the 2 tone color allows for players to see spin. Advanced players use these also to develop full swings with spin.
Customer Review: A terrific practice tool
The Dunlop Speedball is an excellent practice tool, particularly for beginning and intermediate players. It’s especially valuable if, like me, you like to warm up at the beginning of a lesson or a match by playing “mini-tennis”. The speedball enables you to hit with a full swing and put a lot of spin on the ball without fear of the ball going long. My coach gave me one for practice, and I just ordered several more since my original one has worn out. That’s the only downside … repeated use on hard courts causes wear on the ball. But since they’re relatively inexpensive (and they DO last much longer than a regular ball since the speedball is solid foam and not hollow inside), this is not a major problem. Highly recommended for warm-up and for working on developing a full swing with topspin.
