Crush is a new line of pickleball equipment. The Scottsdale-based company offers premium pickleball paddles, backpacks, men’s and women’s apparel, accessories and more, and plans to expand the brand through its coast-to-coast team building strategies.
Local entrepreneurs Pete and Richelle Nassos, alongside pickleball pro Brett Warner, launched Crush in August 2023 and have produced two pickleball paddles – the Freestyle Pro Paddle and the Fearless Hybrid Paddle, according to a press release.
“We started Crush with the idea and goal to equip players with premium paddles at a fair price,” Crush co-founder Richelle Nassos said in the release. “We fully embrace the response from players and are actively finding ways to support them on their pickleball journeys.”
