Spinfire have taken the best all-round ball machine and made it even better with their version two release. 

Tennis ball machines are an excellent way to practice and improve your game, regardless of skill level. The Spinfire Pro 2 makes it easy to practice a wide range of shots, test yourself with a variety of pace, spin and elevation, plus extend your mobility and fitness with ample practice drills.

This machine works for both tennis and padel.

A number of improvements have been made over the original machine. The Spinfire Pro 2 [v2] offers things you would normally only find on a much more expensive machine. It includes internal movement, an easy-to-use control panel, a multi-function remote control and fully programmable app with AI-Powered Drill Creator and a 150-ball capacity - all wrapped in a very stylish and compact design.

Core Features & Benefits

Internal Movement

Unlike most other ball machines, which change the duration of the ball by moving the whole machine from side to side, the Spinfire Pro 2 moves internally. This allows for faster re-direction and makes shots less predictable. Additionally, the internal parts are black to further disguise shot direction.

Random Modes

On both horizontal and vertical random modes, balls can be delivered through the full width of the singles court with depth variation. The Spinfire Pro 2 can be set to deliver the same trajectory over and over or a variety of random trajectories. 'Horizontal Random' can be set to deliver balls across a narrow, medium or wide area. 'Vertical Random' delivers short or long balls in a random order. Both 'Horizontal Random' and 'Vertical Random' can be combined for a very realistic playing pattern.

Automatic Variation

Speed, spin and/or interval can automatically adjust to play for a more varied training session.

Two-Line Drills

This feature delivers alternating forehands and backhands. It can be set to 'wide', 'medium' or 'narrow' to vary the degree of difficulty. The 'wide' setting makes you run from side to side, 'narrow' allows you to remain in the middle of the court, with 'medium' in between the two. You can also set the timing between each ball.

Extreme Topspin & Slice Capability

Using counter rotating wheels, the Spinfire Pro 2 operates very quietly and can generate maximum topspin and backspin, if desired.

Extreme Lob

Extreme lobs are uncommon in other ball machines on the market, however, with a 60° elevation, the Spinfire Pro 2 easily delivers realistic lobs for repetitive practice, ensuring they are a breeze on game day.

Smartphone App

Easily control the machine using the Spinfire App, available for iPhone and Android. Transform your training with unmatched customisation through the advanced AI-Powered Drill Creator. Design precise, personalised practice sessions effortlessly, utilising the app's full programmability, custom and quick drills, and Random Mode. Just input your desired parameters, and the AI-Powered Drill Creator will generate the drill for you, allowing you to fine-tune the settings or start your perfectly tailored training session right away. Compatible with machines purchased from 22nd July 2024 onwards only.

 

Remote Control Included

All functions can be controlled remotely, allowing the player to start or pause the machine, as well as change functions, anywhere on court.

Easy Portability

Lightweight and compact, the Spinfire Pro 2 fits in the boot of most cars. The white hopper can be reversed to neatly cover the machine. Robust wheels and an extendable handle allow you to pull or push the machine anywhere.

Lithium Upgrade

Consider the lithium [LiFePO4] battery for the lightest option, at half the weight. Lithium batteries are designed to be recharged thousands of times, many times more than a traditional standard battery. On a long-term basis, the lithium option is more economical, with a life-span of a few decades. Only the Fast Charger is available for selection with any lithium battery configuration.

Standard vs Lithium Battery

Three Power Options

You can choose to have a built-in or external battery pack. Alternatively, plug directly into mains power - or any combination of the three. The external battery pack makes the machine much lighter, allowing you to leave the machine in the car and just bring the battery inside for charging. A fast charger is also available, reducing the charging time from 11 hours to 3-4 hours. If your court has easy access to a power point, you may prefer the direct mains option.


Power Comparison

Frequently Asked Questions

Which balls do you recommend?
Pressureless balls should ideally be used with any branded ball machine. Our best selling option is the Spinfire Touch

Can this machine additionally handle junior tennis balls?
Yes. Green, red and orange balls are also supported by this machine. Any junior balls should not be the oversized type.

What are the benefits to ordering an external battery model?
The machine is lighter and allows only the external battery pack to be brought to the power point. Customers usually select the external battery if they plan on storing or charging the battery in a different location to the machine.

Is the battery itself the same whether I opt for an internal or external battery?
Yes. There is no performance difference.

If I choose the internal battery option, can I replace the battery at a later point?
Yes. The process takes less than 30 minutes. Video instructions are available.

Can I order more than one power configuration?
Yes. This product listing only supports the selection of one of the three power configurations though [internal battery, external battery, mains AC]. To order a second power configuration, add the second product to your basket. For example, if you would like an external battery machine AND the AC Mains Power Supply, add both the external battery machine, plus the AC Mains Power Supply to the basket. Or, if you would like both the internal and external battery pack, order the internal battery machine, then add the External Standard Battery Pack or External Lithium Battery Pack to the basket.

Is a normal battery or lithium battery better?
The lithium battery is half the weight, has a 20% greater capacity and can be recharged many more times. The lithium is the most popular choice, however, it is slightly more expensive.

Is the machine different depending on which configuration I select?
No. The machine itself is always the same.

Therefore, could I order a second power configuration at a later stage?
Yes.

Can this machine also be used for padel?
Yes.

Can I use the standard battery charger with a lithium charger?
No. The chargers are different. This product listing will not allow you to add incompatible components to the basket.

Can I use the charger to operate the machine directly off mains power?
No. You can only use the AC Mains Power Supply accessory for operating the machine directly off mains power.

Can I use the Spinfire App with my iPhone or Android?
For machines purchased on or after 22nd July 2024. If you purchased your machine before this date, please contact us.

    Spinfire 2 Pro

    Posted by Patrick Young on 22nd Sep 2024

    Brilliant machine! Bought after my ancient Lobster Elite had to be retired. Technology has really moved on. I can't report any downsides to the Spinfire: best buy for a long time. Absolutely love it!

    Great Ball Machine

    Posted by Remmy Kamya on 14th Jul 2024

    This is a great ball machine. It is easy to operate with various features for practising different strokes, and is also easy to manoeuvre. Delivery was very quick, only two days and well packaged. It's very useful as a substitute if you can't find a player. My backhand and volleys need developing, so the Spinfire has allowed to me to really focus on technique. It charges fast, and has a good battery life. I'm really glad I purchased it. Exceeded my expectations.

    Amazing Tool

    Posted by Tony Dillon on 11th Jul 2024

    What can I say? Delivery and service excellent. Ordered in the afternoon, received the next morning. I have been looking for something to help with padel training and this is the perfect bit of kit and worth every penny. Can be set to deliver the same shot every time to help work on specific technique with the ability to introduce random elements (speed, height, spin) for a more realistic scenario. It's my new perfect training partner!

    Amazing 'Partner'

    Posted by Henry on 4th Jun 2024

    Purchased this 2 weeks ago - it has already helped me to improve my technique and fitness. The setting options are just fantastic and abundant, allowing me to train on many aspects of my game e.g, dealing with high top spin, underspin, volleys and smashes. I particularly love the horizontal and vertical random feature, keeping me on my toes doing split steps. Remote is easy to use and the panel is definitely a huge plus, so I can take photos of the various settings that I want to train on again and make minor adjustments to notch it up or down. I am sure there are probably a lot of YouTube videos or forums out there with settings recommendations, but think it would be a huge plus if the product comes with some recommended settings, which will save me some time from trial and error, though I did enjoy figuring it out myself.

    Recent Purchase - Very Happy

    Posted by Greg Cheverall on 1st Jun 2024

    I bought my Spinfire Pro 2 from Racquet Depot UK in May and am delighted with the machine. It's very robust and has every setting you want for a full practice. It's also easy to use and portable.

    Delivery

    Posted by Glyn Guttridge on 25th May 2024

    Delivery to my country was delayed because of bureaucratic red tax tape but to be fair, the guys at the company did their best to ensure delivery as quickly as possible to me. Now I have the Spinfire Pro 2, I absolutely love this machine. It has so far surpassed my expectations. It has lots of power launching the balls from the opposite base line, and after an hour, I still had a full charge showing. Thanks guys for your perseverance.

    Simply Fabulous

    Posted by Chris O. on 24th May 2024

    This is an excellent training partner, not only for adults but also for our young children, giving them a fast track way to improve and gain confidence. It is easy to use, intuitive, and extremely versatile, with all the adjustable settings you need, from different levels of ball spin, speed and height. I like the way it oscillates internally so if you have it on random settings, it doesn't telegraph where the ball is being projected. Easily portable, the remote control is very useful, and the ball capacity allows long practice settings. The battery life is excellent, and the noise level is very low. Not only is it great for skill development, but I use it as a fitness exercise, and my children even use it for cricket practice (catching and batting!!). I can't recommend this machine highly enough and view it not only as great for fun and fitness, but also great value for money.

    Spinfire 2 - Quality Ball Machine

    Posted by Jonathan Wragg on 21st May 2024

    I recently bought the Spinfire 2 ball machine with the internal lithium battery from Racquet Depot UK. It arrived the next day. I am very pleased with all aspects of this fantastic ball machine. It has many settings allowing it to be used for beginners through to very advanced players. The screen is very clear and easy to use, as is the remote which works from all parts of the court. The machine is very portable with excellent wheels for moving it around the club. I have used ball machines with my coaching for the last 30 years and this machine is first class.

    Spinfire Pro 2

    Posted by Ian Kane on 9th May 2024

    The Spinfire has lived up to it's hype, from the ease of moving it around the courts and the simplicity of controls, to the large hopper and sturdy casing. Especially enjoy the remote control where you can pause and update the programs from the other side of the court. Storage is easy, as the machine is very neat once the hopper is reversed onto the casing. Charging is simple and the internal battery helps with ease of use for club members. So far, the run time for the on-court use has been good. The only issue we have had so far is the release of the hopper from the casing can be a bit tricky, but overall a great machine.
