Tyler Loong, Team Vulcan Pro

Tyler Loong, 27, has been playing pickleball for four years. He started playing tennis at age 7, including playing Division 1 College Tennis during his first year at BYU in Utah. He transitioned into playing pickleball after his neighbor, Tyler Sheffield, invited him to play a game one afternoon; he’s been hooked ever since! From the very beginning of his time playing the sport, his favorite part about the pickleball community has been the feeling of family and friendship. To this day, most of his close friends are fellow pickleball players, and he appreciates this common bond they share.

In his spare time, Tyler is a referee for college tennis matches, travels with his wife, and enjoys outdoor sports—such as hiking, surfing, motorcross, biking, and skateboarding. His career has paired creativity and focus, from owning a shaved ice shack to real estate investment to working in account management; his pickleball game shows the same combination of fun and discipline, including his signature Erne shot.

Tyler is excited to join Team Vulcan so he can finally go 100% into the sport he loves most, while being supported by a company that makes a full range of products he likes.
