Millennium Series Leg 4 Paris, Disney World Cup 30 September - 2 October 2011 It’s been a rough season for Copenhagen Synergy. Just before the season started it was quite clear that a new roster was needed since a couple of guys had dropped off for different reasons. The solution was to join bands with a Swedish team from Malmo, MPA Blackout, without any Millennium experience what so ever. Together we decided to play as Copenhagen Synergy in the Millennium Series division 1 and as MPA Blackout in the open division in the Swedish Championships called “Planet Eclipse Paintball SM”. With the season opener in Paris and a placement dead last it was quite clear that the team had a lot to work on. It was a rough start but no one in the team had any intentions of giving up. We all knew we could be a top contender in the division although the results were speaking of the opposite. During the season we slowly got it together and the team play and dynamics in the team just grew better

With the impending release of the Eclipse Etha we invited a selection of our Master Technicians over to  Manchester early in September to attend a secret Etha testing session and get some hands-on experience with our latest creation. The testing was scheduled to take place at the Staargate Super 6 event in Wakefield, so rather than rush around like lunatics on the Sunday morning, Gerry Bates (PE USA), Snypi (Paintball.de) and Cheveux (CAMP) elected to fly into town on the Saturday morning and have a day to acclimatise. Rather than waste a day it was off to Conway with Ledz and Eilidh to take a step back in time at Conway Castle and sample some real Fish and Chips! Sunday rolled round and our eclectic mix of Technicians were joined by our R+D guru's Flash and Jack as well as our sales manager, Tom Rust. Whilst playing styles and levels of enthusiasm varied; one factor was consistent throughout the day - Etha was bringing smiles to the faces of everyone who used it as they

World Cup- Paris, last tournament of the year, last chance to reach for glory and to test yourself and your team against opponents from all over the world. Everybody wants to end the year on a high note to fuel the fires for next year and the off season training. There was a recordbreaking number of teams in division 2 as it is the highest unlocked division available for teams that dont play the whole series. We anticipated that with the high number of unranked teams like ourselves there would be plenty of wildcard teams and it would be hard to predict the outcome of most prelim groups. The weather was splendid all weekend long even though 25 degrees is almost to warm for us northerners to play in. I felt pity for Ingar our snakeplayer as he would run to the snake of the break almost every point this weekend. Thank goodness he is in great shape! We entered two teams this event, one in div 2 and one in div 3. For many players this was their first millennium, for some old fr

Back from a hectic World Cup... Only had time to watch a couple of vids check these 3 out !! Do Best Buy sell these? I need to get myself one !!! Etha review... We don't recommend you do any of these things... David you made me laugh :-) I beleive this was on Sky TV at Warren Woods Paintball... Always good seeing Paintball on TV.

One of the questions that we get asked a LOT is what’s the difference between the EGO and the GEO? So, we decided to have a tongue in cheek debate.. Enjoy!

I'm on my travells now to World Cup so no video watching for me this week.. But here is one I spotted just before I left. It's great to see Paintball happening ALL over the World !

The West Coast Paintball Series' biggest tournament to date was able to be played on a brand new 5-man PSP field in Keizer, Oregon at the Warpaint International Outdoor Field.  34 teams came out to play on the 5-man and 3-man fields in the Novice, Rookie, Beginner and Pump Divisions and reffing was provided by Pro team Portland Uprising. Some of our sponsors came out to join us for the day – Planet Eclipse Provided prizes for the event, ProCaps provided Draxxus paint and Mafia Air brought their mobile air out for the event along with one of our Official Media Sponsor's - PBLive TV came out to film the event and interview WCPS Owner and Promoter, Skyler Anderson.  It was another awesome day of paintball with teams showing great sportsmanship and positive energy all day.  The WCPS is always glad to see smiles on people's faces at the end of the day.  Event 4 Results: Novice: 1st place- NOTORIOUS 2nd place- Code Blue 3rd place- Frikadelliwurst Rookie: 1st

 The dust has now settled on the CPPS season and what a great seasons it’s been for Planet Eclipse teams… The final leg last weekend saw Disruption finishing in 2nd Place behind recently crowned Millennium Div 1 champions The Firm. This gave Disruption the Series title, on front of Nexus in 2nd and Manchester Firm in 3rd in the Elite League. Firm showed some class in the other divisions as well, pretty much running away with the M& Super League and winning the final leg, after finishing 2nd in round one the Firm have won every other leg!!! Even more Firm new, they also took 2nd Overall in the M5 Premier League.. Very Impressive..   Well Done to ALL planet Eclipse teams in the CPPS…  Full results for the season below: M7 Elite League Round 1 Round 2 Round 3 Round 4 Round 5 Round 6 Pos Pts Pos Pts Pos Pts Pos Pts Pos Pts Pos Pts Total Bir.
