ABOUT
Our Story
Built to play.
Built to come back.
BounceBack is on a mission to eliminate pickleball waste — the world's first closed-loop pickleball company, keeping the sport we love sustainable without giving up a thing on performance.
Meet the Founder
Dillon
Rosenthal
As an avid pickleball player, Dillon saw firsthand the staggering amount of plastic waste the sport generates — cracked balls tossed after every session with no end-of-life solution.
That concern turned into a question worth solving: what if every discarded pickleball became a brand-new one?
Today BounceBack runs the first closed-loop recycling system for pickleballs — collecting, processing, and remanufacturing balls that play as well as anything on the market, while cleaning up our game.
What We Stand For
Our Values
Sustainability First
Every ball we make is 100% recycled. We built BounceBack on the belief that the industry deserves a real solution to its waste problem, and we're transparent about every step — from collection to court.
Player-Grade Performance
Recycled doesn't mean compromised. The BB-1 meets the same bounce, weight, and durability standards as the top balls on the market. Sustainability only wins if the product stands on its own.
Community Driven
From our recycling bin program to partnerships with courts and clubs, BounceBack runs on the energy of players who care about the sport and the planet.
