Below you’ll find all discounts you can get via Dink Dynasty as well as little blurb about each company!
I only partner with companies where I’ve used their products and can confidently recommend them. I focus on Canadian companies first, always.
As “small business” as it gets! Based out of Calgary, this Canadian startup is currently run just 2 people! They only have 1 paddle currently, with a second coming in Spring 2026 (Gen 4 foam paddle!) but the paddle they offer was meticulously designed, tested and re-designed by the owners.
Their “Revolution Pro 1” is a standard shape paddle resulting in a bigger sweet spot for more consistent play! It also has an extremely gritty carbon fiber face and an elongated handle.
Le Cornichon’s Revolution 1 is currently my recommended paddle for any player, not only because it’s from a small Canadian business, but because the quality is just there! It’s the one I’m personally using!
Order at http://lecornichon.co and use coupon code JOEL for 5% off the already modestly priced paddle as well as overgrips and paddle erasers.
They will be launching a clothing line soon as well!
I’ve been seeing OWL ads for a long time, not knowing they were a Canadian company all along!
Not only are these paddles ridiculously affordable, they perform like $250+ plus paddles!
Benefits include:
- Lower weight and vibration dampening – great for those who have or are prone to tendonitis.
- The unique fiber face grabs the ball and produces spin rivalling the most expensive carbon fiber paddles.
- The quiet sound not only reduces noise, it can disorientate your opponents!
Their main paddles are the OWL CX and the OWL PX. The CX is a 16mm control paddle and the PX is a 13mm power paddle. Both also have an “E” variation for those of us who prefer extended handles.
You can get 15% off using my discount code “JOEL53415” at https://shop.owlpaddle.com making the price of their PX and CX series paddles only $175 including tax and shipping!
Poach is a lesser known Canadian brand but growing in popularity due to great paddles and great bags.
Their paddles are right up there with Combat in terms of quality and some clever innovation.
They also have a good bag selection and the usual accessories!
You can get 15% off using my discount code “DINKDYNASTY” at https://poachpaddles.com
Note that the discount only works on that site, not their poach.net site.
Acacia makes pickleball shoes – not court shoes. Court shoes usually don’t have a lot of ankle support, but since Pickleball typically has a lot of lateral movement, ankle support is a must!
Their shoes also have rubber that lasts on even the roughest of surfaces (Crosscourt, am I right?). No more replacing your shoes every 4 months!
I like the high cut shoes best for better ankle support like the Proshot!
You can purchase at http://acaciasports.ca and use the coupon code DINKDYNASTYJA for 10% off!
Email me at pbdinkdynasty@gmail.com or send me a message any way if you have other contact info for me!
Tyrol is another Pickleball shoe source with great Pickleball (not court) shoes! I personally prefer the Acacia, especially the higher cuts as they have better ankle support but Tyrol is also a top notch shoe choice!
You can purchase at http://ca.tyrolpickleball.com and use code DINKDYNASTY for 10% off!
A Canadian company, simply called “SOLE” offers custom moldable insoles for better support on the court.
These aren’t spongy, fluffy inserts. They are stiff, because you don’t need cushion, you need support so your arches don’t collapse.
Unlike generic inserts, these insoles mold to your foot – either just through time, or you can heat them up a bit in your oven and stand on them for a quicker custom mold.
A fraction of the price of custom orthotics with all the benefits, and your feet, ankles, knees hips and back will thank you!
My recommendation is the Active medium insoles. If you prefer the natural and more eco friendly cork option, they should be great too but reports are they wear out quicker.
Follow this link http://yoursole.ca to get $20 off your first pair of insoles!
Last but not least is the supportive apparel company Stoko. Stoko is also a Canadian company that makes supportive tights, shorts and even socks! These are not your standard compression clothing, they also have thin cable called dyneema woven through the fabric that you can tighten or loosen as needed!
Dyneema is often used in rock climbing where it not only needs to support the weight of a body but also has to withstand the force a full grown adult generates when falling from some height. If it’s use in rock climbing, you know it’s incredibly strong stuff.
While these are very expensive (~$400) they have a 30 day return policy, used or not and they pay the shipping, so it’s quite risk free.
The shorts are specifically designed for hip and lower back pain, while the tights are focused on knee pain but also offer great support for lower back and hips as well. I have both and prefer the tights as I find they give the same support as the shorts and more!
If you suffer from any of this type of pain, and running around on hard cement courts makes it even worse, these are worth the 30 day try.
You can get an $80 off coupon code – these codes are single use and specific. If you’d like me to get you a coupon code, either email me at pbdinkdynasty@gmail.com or if you know me, contact me whatever way you like – I’ll send the code. Just note the code only works on non-sale items, so if they are having a sale, you won’t be able to get the additional discount.
Thanks for checking out my partners, feel free to ask me any further questions about any of these brands and happy dinking folks!
