Forged in the depths of hell and inspired by the unparalleled legacy of carnage the Ego continues to leave in its wake, comes the third issue of the Desert Edge Ego – The “DEEGO 11”. Desert Edge is pleased to announce the release of the new 2011 limited edition DEEGO from Planet Eclipse. The distinctive design of this exclusive private label marker features all the great features of the Ego 11, with the stunning new Desert Edge graphics. The distinctive graphics make this striking limited team edition marker a dream to the few shooting it and a nightmare to those that oppose it. The DEEGO represents a rare and long standing partnership between Eclipse and Desert Edge--two entities dedicated to building the sport of paintball. The third edition of the DEEGO is truly a milestone in poppet-value technology and demonstrates the constant commitment Planet Eclipse has to meet the needs of each individual player. This remarkable marker is equally at home in the woods at UWL as it is on th...

Nicky T PRO - TECH - TOUR 2011 Brazil The weekend of 4/5th December 2010 saw the final event of the 2010 Circuito Brasileiro de Paintball (CBP) hosted by Megaplay Morumbi at their field in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Managing to escape the sub-zero temperatures of the UK, I headed off to Manchester Airport with my passport in hand and my trusty Ego11 in tow! Although long, the flights were largely uneventful and the usual random conversations with foreign flying colleagues ensured that time passed swiftly and we touched down at Guayaquil airport as scheduled bright and breezy at 7.30am on the Friday morning. My experiences of accommodation in South America thus far can only be described as a bit of a lottery, mainly resulting in a mixed bag of less than desirable but Megaplay ensured that any fears I had were instantly alleviated by booking us rooms at the local Ibis in downtown Sao Paulo. Waiting in the hotel lobby were Mikey (Canto) and PJ; our Eclipse reps for South America and a good mut...

Field Crawling with Pub Crawling End of the season report!!!! Game 11 SCOTLAND!, yes you read it right. Pub Crawling it their own quiet way continue to travel to points around the globe to experience paintball at as many different fields as possible. Because fine Single Malt Scotch (Whisky to be sure) is only produced in Scotland it only seemed fitting that the team find a game there. We attended the bi-annual England versus Scotland game at Prozone Paintball in Annan, Scotland. I must say that we also vacationed north of Inverness in the Highlands of Scotland for a week and well: FUN! Distilleries, trout fishing, pubs, dolphin watches, a football (soccer) game, breweries, castles, did I mention distilleries?, and so much more. The game was well attended. Several hundred players arrived to fight in 4 distinct battles at the Prozone field and though we fought for Scotland in this match England was able to prevail. Again history was not rewritten. We did meet some great players from bo...

Only while stocks last and if there isn’t one in the box then I’m very sorry but that’s tough luck. Merry Christmas.

This Shaft4 Boost kit allows you to add two extra's backs to your existing Shaft4 barrel that comes as standard on GEO2 and EGO11 Markers. Extra's Backs are 1 x Bigger @ .693 and 1 x Smaller @ .0685 ***NOTE*** Anodising is NOT an exact science and thus colour matching your existing barrel will be a little hit and miss. Please do not expect an exact match as your will probably be very disappointed, but you might also be very happy as we do try very hard to get the best possible match, but those pesky Ph levels keeping changing :-) Coloured 'Special Edition' kits are limited and have been done to match existing colour ways on the EGO11 and GEO2. Or mix it up to make your own unique combo..When they are gone then they are gone.

Team Chacales of Krakus sent us a quick wrap-up of there season in CSP 2010.... (English rough translation below). ------------------------------------------------------------ Todo arranco en marzo allá por Colombia en la primera valida del csp (circuito sudamericano de paintball) donde chacales of krakus comenzó su gira latinoamericana como una forma de escuela para el equipo. Pasaron las diferentes fechas como chile , Brasil, argentina y el cierre de ecuador, donde el Team batallo contra validas muy duras con un alto nivel dentro de la categoría amateur, pero cada fecha lograba ganar esos puntos que lo acercaban mas aún al sub campeonato que se disputaba cabeza a cabeza contra Evolution Jr. Luego el 20 y 21 de noviembre llego la hora de la verdad cuando se disputo la última fecha en Guayaquil ecuador, donde el equipo tuvo que dividir esfuerzos mandando un contingente a jugar la fecha y otro a jugar el TAPX (torneo argentino de paintball categoría Open donde el equipo salió en el 3°...
