ProXR Pickleball and sibling brand Boundless join SPF Chicago, on the courts and in the retail shop.
ProXR Pickleball and the team at Thirty-5 Capital are joining the SPF Chicago family, bringing ProXR's game-changing paddles and its sibling brand, Boundless Pickleball, to SPF's courts and retail shop.
Ron Saslow, Founder and Managing Partner of Thirty-5 Capital, has been at the forefront of pickleball's growth in Chicago and nationally. Through his family's shared love of the sport, Saslow and his team formed and own the Chicago Slice, the city's Major League Pickleball team, and have backed several pickleball ventures.
Born from a father-and-son duo's ingenuity during COVID lockdown play sessions, ProXR has brought ergonomically designed paddles to the sport, engineered to improve swing and enhance play. Club SPF members will be able to demo paddles, and everyone will be able to purchase select models from the ProXR line at SPF's retail shop.
Available ProXR models include the Zane Navratil Signature (14mm), the Zane Navratil "The Standard" (14mm and 16mm), and the Connor Garnett Signature (14mm). Players can also show home-team pride with ProXR's Chicago Slice fiberglass paddles.
SPF will also offer exclusive SPF Boundless Pickleball paddles for rental and purchase, custom-crafted with SPF's branding and top-tier materials. For college sports fans, Boundless offers a lineup of collegiate licensed paddles, including Illinois, Ohio State, and Penn State.
Thirty-5 Capital holds a robust portfolio of investments in professional sports teams, leagues, and innovative technology-driven sports companies. thirtyfivecapital.com
