Charlie II

Description

Computer-controlled basketball trainer for shooting practice

The Charlie II basketball trainer enables highly intensive shooting practice. Thanks to its unique method of “launching/passing” the ball using an electronically controlled servo, this trainer can simulate shooting not just from one fixed spot at the same distance, but is capable of delivering every single ball to a different position and at a different distance during play — all with varying force (maximum pass distance of up to 20 metres!!!). This method of pass control makes the Charlie II basketball trainer truly one of a kind. The enormous variability of the passes allows for a highly diverse training programme to be put together. This programme can then be very easily saved to the computer’s memory and recalled again at any time. A contactless basket sensor records successful attempts, and the large front display shows real-time information on the number of throws, the number of successful shots, and the player’s percentage success rate.

Technical specifications:

• 9 shooting positions
• Adjustable time cadence (from 2.5 to 60 seconds)
• Adjustable pass length/force (from 2 m up to 20 m!!!)
• Manual adjustment of pass trajectory (vertical angle)
• Adjustable number of passes (any number)
• Easy setup of individual programmes
• Optimal number of balls in the magazine: 4
• The trainer is designed to accommodate an additional rebound board with basket

Dimensions:

• When folded, the machine fits through a standard 80 cm wide doorway
• With the catch net basket removed, the machine can be transported in a larger passenger vehicle

An additional rebound board with basket can be purchased separately. With this board integrated, the trainer is not dependent on a basketball court with a fixed hoop — it can be used virtually anywhere.
