I just want to take a moment to show some love and appreciation to my amazing teammates from the Burger King tournament. 🍔 First, Mayu 🫶 I was literally sleeping during the draft and didn’t do a single thing to help build our team 😂, but Mayu stepped up and put this whole team together. She wasn’t just our captain, but also our strategist, always keeping us positive and encouraging us every step of the way. We couldn’t have asked for a better leader! Connie 🌱 You saved me more times than I can count. Just knowing you were there gave me an unbelievable sense of confidence and security. Watching you compete in both doubles and singles was so inspiring, and after spending a whole day around you, I became a genuine fan of both your playing style and the person you are. The way you play and carry yourself is truly amazing, and I have so much respect for you! Santosh 🐐 I don’t think I even need to say much about you at this point. Simply put, you’re a beast. Having you by my side gave me so much confidence, and the way you constantly encouraged me during matches made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. Playing alongside you was an absolute blast! And finally, a huge thank you to PJ 🙏 for organizing this amazing tournament and creating such a wonderful opportunity for all of us to compete, connect, and make unforgettable memories. None of this would have been possible without your hard work and dedication, and I truly appreciate everything you do for the community! Love yall soft servers 🤙

🇺🇸 PLAYER SPOTLIGHT: SANTHOSH NARAYANAN PJL BURGER KING® CUPのAdvanced Division & Pro Division に出場するSanthosh Narayanan選手をご紹介します。 ミシガン州デトロイト出身、現在はサンフランシスコを拠点に、コーチ兼プロプレーヤーとして活躍。 ミシガン大学院でエンジニアリングの修士号を取得し、以前はテック業界で働いていたが、2023年1月にピックルボールを始め、その後急速に実力を伸ばしピックルボールへの情熱から企業でのキャリアを離れ、プロへ転向。 さらに同じくエンジニアで競技プレーヤーでもある Mac（Max Manthou） とともに、高性能パドルブランド Speedup Pickleball を創設。 エンジニアリングの視点からテストと改良を重ね、独自素材を取り入れたパドル開発にも取り組んでいます。 現在は世界各地の大会で活躍🔥 🏅 APP Malaysia 男子ダブルス Bronze 🏅 PPA Australia シングルス / 男子ダブルス Bronze 🏅 PPA Asia ミックスダブルス 4位 🏅 APP UTSUNOMIYA 男子ダブルス Bronze 🥈 PJF 有明大会 2x Silver Medalist 🌏 World Pickleball League — Mumbai Pickle Power 自身のプレースタイルを表す言葉は、 “Controlled Aggression.” 強烈なフォアハンドドライブ、自在にボールを動かす展開力、そして空中から仕掛けるフリック。 粘り強くボールを返しながら相手にプレッシャーをかけ、プレーしづらい状況を作り出すのが彼の持ち味です。 そしてSanthoshにとって、日本でのピックルボールは特別な存在。 なんと今回が、今年3回目の来日！🇯🇵 日本のピックルボールコミュニティの熱気とエネルギーが大好きで、健太、愛子、雄希、NASA、Rikaともピックルボールを通じて仲良くなり、みんな良い人ばかりだよ。 オフコートでは、ラケットスポーツ、ロッククライミング、旅行が大好き。 日本では箱根がお気に入りで、次は北海道にも行ってみたいとのこと。 日本の好きなところは、礼儀正しさ、ものづくりへのこだわり、そして日常の中に喜びを見つける文化。 さらに、 「日本は食べ物のクオリティが本当に高い。コンビニのレベルにも驚いた！」 Vegetarianなので食事探しに少し苦労することもあるそうですが、次に日本で挑戦したいのは…… 🍣 VEGAN OMAKASE! そして、日本のプレーヤーへ。 “Keep enjoying the game and spread the joy of pickleball!” “I can’t wait to compete in front of the Japanese crowd. It’s going to be SUGOI!” See you at the PJL BURGER KING® CUP 🇯🇵🔥

Big news from **SpeedUp Pickleball** 👀🔥 Santhosh just gave us the details on the upcoming **SpeedUp Tide Pro** — and there’s a lot to be excited about. **16 mm. New shapes. Target swing weight around 116–117. Durable grit.** And they’re testing both a **ceramic-style roughness grit** and a **tacky surface approach**. The Tide Pro is being built as the next evolution of the Tide line, with a big focus on **feel, durability, and player feedback**. Which part has you most interested — **16 mm, the new shapes, or the durable grit?** 👇 🎥 From our conversation with Santhosh **SpeedUp Tide Pro — coming soon** #Pickleball #SpeedUpPickleball #TidePro #PickleballPaddle #PickleballRX #PickleballGear #PickleballReview #PickleballPaddles #DurableGrit #PickleballLife

POWER is overrated? 👀🔥 We’re all chasing the hardest-hitting paddle… but does **max power actually make most players better?** Santosh from Speed Up made a great point during our live: that huge counter or put-away feels amazing — but if the tradeoff is more pop-ups, less control, and a smaller margin for error, is that extra power really helping your game? For most recreational players, maybe the better formula is: **Forgiveness + control + predictable power > MAX power.** That doesn’t mean power paddles are bad. It means the **most powerful paddle isn’t automatically the best paddle for YOU.** What do you think? **Are pickleball players too obsessed with POWER right now? 👇** 🎙️ Pickleball RX × Speed Up Pickleball

Which Pickleball Paddle Companies Would Struggle Without the Branding? 👀 What if every pickleball paddle lost its branding and had to compete purely on performance? We threw that question to the panel… and it got spicy FAST. 🌶️😂 Big brands, marketing, innovation, and why smaller companies may be able to move faster — there were definitely some interesting takes. Which paddle companies do YOU think would still stand out if the logos disappeared? 👇 🎙️ Pickleball RX Roundtable #PickleballRX #Pickleball #PickleballPaddles #PaddleReview #PickleballGear #PickleballCommunity #PickleballPodcast #PaddleTalk
