What is a “Stinky Dink”

A “Stinky Dink” is a beautifully struck dink or shot that is so nice it leaves your opponents thinking…pe-yew! That was nasty!

The Beginning

Stinky Dinks started with a local tournament, a few drinks, and a team name that made everyone laugh harder than it should have. My son and daughter-in-law needed something memorable, we tossed ideas around, “Stinky Dinks” stuck, they won the whole thing, and the name became a reminder that fun and possibilities usually show up together.

The Why

I’m Gary Sensenig-husband, dad, and Lancaster County Pa pickleball addict. Like so many others, the game of pickleball sucked me in from day one and hasn’t let go. But what I couldn’t find were paddle accessories that felt personal. Everything was branded, bland, or just…not me. So i started making my own edge wraps. Bright, weird, clean, bold, anything but boring. One design turned into a handful, a handful turned into a lineup, and suddenly Stinky Dinks wasn’t just a joke anymore. It was a way to help players give their paddles some personality.

The Now

Now the brand has grown into wraps, clips, weights, coins, and kits. Little add-ons that make your paddle feel like yours. Whether your brand new or a court regular, there’s something fun about gearing up with accessories that match your vibe and make you smile before the first serve. Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the pickleball world. Have fun out there, swing big, and never settle for a boring paddle.
