I interview Ryan Cohen, co-founder of Volair Pickleball, pickleball gear brand co-founded with pro Julian Arnold. Having known Julian since high school and always finding himself generating ideas and pursuing them, it was a no-brainer that he'd eventually start a business in the pickleball space, especially after falling in love with it in 2020. He talks about how his business acumen is translating to finding opportunities in pickleball, resulting in improved management and treatment of players and developing the highest commission ambassador program.
