The confidence, the composure to lob top level players on game point to win the game is out of this WORLD! šŸŒšŸ«£ Tama is now in the mixed and men's Final and will be playing today at @ppatourasia Kuala Lumpur. You don't see me posting highlights but @tamashimabukuro_ is an exception. Kid is unreal! Can't wait to see more of Tama in the years to come!

We interviewed co-founder @isaacmcdonaldd on how they grew one of the fastest growing pickleball brands in the world. Beyond the funny content we see, here’s what they also focused on: • be kind • show up consistently • connect with the community in-person • let word of mouth do the rest šŸ¤ Most brands try to sell. Friday built community. Follow @thepicklebase for more conversations growing the sport across Asia šŸŽ™ļø #pickleball #pickleballasia

Can’t make it to the event but love pickleball? This one’s for you! Here’s all you need to know about @ppatourasia KL Open Day 3 at @9pickleeeee Today was all about Quarterfinals in Women’s, Men’s and Mixed Doubles. The top seeds showed why they’re seeded that way.

Most players think sponsorships come after results. But brands are not just looking for winners, they’re looking for people that can move attention. A good player gets noticed. A good storyteller gets remembered. If you wanna get sponsored in pickleball, start thinking beyond medals & rankings: • What story are people following? • What value are you bringing? • Can you help a brand grow? Because at the end of the day, sponsorship is a business deal, not a favour. The players that win long term are usually the ones that know how to build trust, audience & consistency, and yes, on and off court. Curious though… What do you think brands ACTUALLY look for when sponsoring athletes? šŸ‘‡ #pickleball #pickleballmalaysia #pickleballasia #playatbase

The Gearbox GBX Power might be one of the more interesting Gen 3 paddles right now. Instead of going full foam, Gearbox went with a honeycomb core + TPE foam setup, aiming to keep that familiar honeycomb feel while improving durability. On court, it feels like a controlled power paddle: good power on drives and serves, but without feeling overly wild or difficult to handle. Between the two: • Elongated = more reach + stronger drives • Hybrid = more forgiving + easier to use Comment ā€œGEARBOXā€ and we’ll send you the website link with a discount code šŸ˜‰ Follow @thepicklebase for daily pickleball content. #pickleball #thepicklebase #gearboxpickleball #paddlereview
