Alpha Apex Speed and Wise 360 degree rotation?

I am interested in getting an Alpha Apex Speed with a Wise Tension head. Does this combo allow for 360 degree rotation or do I have to mount Wise at a significant distance in order to achieve a 360 degree rotation? Thanks

Not sure. Maybe someone has this setup and can chime in, BUT you could call Alpha and ask or you could could call
Tennis Machines (dot calm) and ask. Either should know.

The WISE, when mounted on a Gamma crank machine DOES allow for 360 rotation (unless you use the Gamma adapter, then it does not)
whereas I don't believe it does on Prince/Ektelon (correct me if I'm wrong regarding Prince, someone?).

Good Advice. I think i might reach out to Mark at Alpha and Tennis Machines. Thanks

Hey Irvin, I checked your link. Still didn't find a clear answer. Do I need an additional adapter for wise in order to achieve 360 rotation?
No adapter needed, talk to Mark at Alpha to be sure but I think you’ll be fine.

The adapter usually eliminates 360 as i understand (raises the WISE head). But still, it depends on where the Lockout arm
is height-wise, if that makes sense. From a quick view of that link Irvin mentioned above, I think you'll
be ok. I like 360 with my WISE. Not critical by any means, but i dig it. I'd be ok without it too.
