Why does the PPA sign pros who can’t win on the APP? 🤔 + Jack Munro | Pod 63


Listen Later

Learn from the most creative player in pickleball: @thejackmunro  joins the pod. We dive into his origin story of being the youngest ever 5.0 player (before ALW), how he got dubbed “Junior Mint” (just don’t call him that anymore), how his hands got so fast, how he likes to train, where his content strategy comes from and how to fix a backhand. 


Jill and KW break down the dollars and “sense” of signing a PPA contract for a player like Grayson Goldin. We do a deep dive on why a pro player who isn’t having success on the APP would sign on the PPA tour. Catch our recap of the APP NYC (Jack won double gold!) and K-Dubs wrote a Pickleball poem! 


Out of all the paddles K-Dubs and I have played, we’ve never fully agreed on one paddle, nor have all of our students. You guys, the SMOKE is the paddle of 2025. They HAND WEIGH each of their paddles for static weight, swing weight, and twist weight to make sure you are getting consistency and exactly what you want, they stand by quality and have not had ONE SINGLE smoke returned since launch—which is wild. Like genuinely wild. USE CODE JILLYB and you won’t be disappointed!
