DiNKR: The Pickleball App That Saved Our Group Chat (And Might Get You a Date?)
Descripción del Episodio
Ever tried organizing a pickleball game with five group chats, two calendars, and someone’s cousin who “might show up if it doesn’t rain”? It’s like herding cats… in court shoes. And just when you finally get a foursome, someone drops out at 7 a.m. Sound familiar?
This week on Dinks on Tap, we’re sitting down with Dan and Steve, the creators of DiNKR, the pickleball app designed to bring order to your game day chaos. Tired of juggling endless texts and flaky invites, they set out to build something better: a smarter way to connect players, schedule games, and grow your pickleball community. Whether you're into recreational pickleball, chasing wins in competitive pickleball, or curious about that low-key dating feature (yep, it’s real), DiNKR is changing how we find our people on and off the court.
In this episode, we unpack it all from the moment the DiNKR paddle-heart logo was born, to whether or not it’s ethical to “target Emma Watson” in rec play. (Yes, that came up.)
Here’s what you’ll dink away with:
- How a movie script turned into a friend finder app that’s actually fun (and works)
- Why “sequential invites” might be the game scheduling hack your group text dreams of
- Early user stories, including the one where a 3.5 with “good vibes” became the hottest swipe
- Why this might be the best thing to hit outdoor group activities since SPF 50
- How vibe > rating and why a true sports connection app is about chemistry, not just DUPR numbers
If you’ve ever Googled how to find pickleball players or dreamed of a less chaotic way to build your pickleball community, grab a drink, hit play, and find out why DiNKR might just be your new favorite doubles partner.
Cheers,
Casie & Lauren
