About us
I'm Jon Park—copywriter by day, pickleball addict by night. I fell down the pickleball rabbit hole in 2022 and haven't looked back since. I'm talking late-night YouTube sessions, buying way too many paddles, and playing whenever I can. So, I decided to start this thing to help people navigate the wild world of pickleball—whether it's understanding the latest gear, figuring out the lingo, or just staying on top of the game as it expands globally.
“I want to make sure we're all a little smarter, the brands step up their game, and the community keeps growing in a fun, positive way.”
Before pickleball, I started a beatboxing community that ended up with over 150,000 monthly readers. It was a totally unexpected journey that taught me how to build and engage with a community around something niche. Now I'm bringing that same energy to pickleball—helping players, brands, and anyone who's curious about the sport dive in and have some fun along the way.
