This video made me smile... We all know that Paintball is an amazing sport and I'm sure we all love it for many different reasons. But when you watch this video the pure joy when Zombie Girl shoots someone or wins the game just bring a little joy to the screen.... I think it safe to say that Zombie Girl won this day, EMG100 FTW :-) FYI.. The place of filming is not a proper Paintball venue. It is a small, private, secret training location, thus some of the less than desirable bunkers / parking. I hope Mo's Car wash has a new sign :-) #PaintballStrong

Leadfarmer has recently joined the Emortal Army and is now rocking the EMG100 and has also became an Emortal . Last week he took the EMG100 out for a spin and we said let us know how you get on. When the video came in we were very surprised at the conditions he has playing in... Brave Man! Minus -7C I think it's safe to say Leadfarmer liked the EMG100 :-) Check out Leadfarmer on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/leadfarmerpaintball/ Check out the Frontline Paintball Podcast where Leadfarmer is co-host: https://www.facebook.com/frontlinepaintballpodcast/

We LOVE to hear about our teams, their adventures, the victories, the failures (not so much) and every now and again we see a team going above and beyond. When you get a pretty cool video sent to you that the Paintball World needs to see you need to get a bit more info about the team in question. We received one such video the other day from Capital Killerz. We like these guys. They seems to have their heads in the right place and are making some great moves at the UK Woodland Masters. With the UKWM Final round this weekend will they be able to hang again with the big biys that are fighting for the UKWM 2019 Title? We don’t know but they have proved they can do it once this year so lets see what happens tomorrow… This is what Arron had to say…. The Capital Killerz have been on a roll the last few Woodland Masters rounds with two Pro 1st place finishes. First at Round 3 UK Woodland Masters at Holmbush with Arron Thorp, Jack Marsh, Russell Johnston, Leo Carter-Smith, ...

The Norwegian season is over and we can look back at a lot of great paintball-games and awesome moves. This year the Norwegian paintball federation took over the series. Their mission was to run it “the player’s way”. The feedback after the season was good, and they are working on making it even better next year. We had 4 legs of NPL (Norwegian Paintball League), Gjøvik, Degernes, Skarnes and the season finale was on the Rønholt arena. Over 40 teams in 4 divisions participated in the series, and the divisions was tight. No one was sure to be on the podium before the finals. That’s how we like it. J Throughout the season, the top 3 in Pro have been varied between Blast, Knights and Dynamite so the last event would decide the overall-winner. The winner of pro could also crown themselves with the title National Master – Norway’s best team 2019. In the prelims, Blast won all their games. Dynamite had 1 win, 1 loose (against Blast) and one draw. Knights had 2 wins and ...

Welcome to the “City of Cats”, Kuching, capital city of the State of Sarawak, Malaysia. Home to the native tribes of Bidayuh and Iban people; land of amazing flora and fauna such as the majestic Rafflesia and the Rhinocerous Hornbill. Where mystic Asia meets the modern world. Kuching Paintball Open – KPO, was held in conjunction with Proshar and Planet Eclipse sponsored EPS 4th Leg Finale. KPO was organized by Kelab Paintball Mambong, Kuching – KPM and co-presented by Raskal Sports.  The event, now in its 5th season, saw a regional record-breaking participation of 68 teams. What was meant to be just another leg of a local tournament series turned out to be an international event with participating teams from Australia, Brunei and players from Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand. A large majority of teams and players were also local to Sarawak – an amazing show of support for the revival of paintball in the State. Over the duration of 3 days in conjunction with the Mala...

We love all types of Paintball (apart from the street gang warfare type) and who doesn’t like a bargain. If you are in the UK and fancy trying out an OMG (Magfed) game for the first time then keep reading…. Never played an OMG event before??? Fancy a bargain of a 2-day game ticket including 500 Paintballs and event patch??? Then click the link below and scroll down to the ticket that says ‘Redkite NEW player – OSP2’ or 'Blackthorne NEW Player - OSP2' https://paintballeventsuk.com/product/osp-snakepit-2-a-den-of-vipers-28-29th-sept/ Planet Eclipse will also have some MG100’s that you can take our for a ‘Test Drive’ on the Saturday at Snakepit 2 (den of Vipers) OMG game on Saturday 28 th September. Some of the Planet staff will be playing this event as well so we will see you there :-) We will be playing for the Blackthorn Squad :-)

At this year’s Paintfest I sat in the bar the night before it all started with Ainsley, Owner of Lucky 15’s Elite Paintball team, and we got talking to a few guys from team South Coast Reapers about all things Paintball and one of the things that we took note of was how they, as a young inexperienced team, struggle to work out any game plans when they play the CPPS airball tournaments.  So I asked if Planet Eclipse sponsored team Lucky 15’s could help in some way. Luck is important. But a good plan is essential. The Lucky 15’s are the best current team in the UK. I don’t think anyone will argue with that statement. They have done it all themselves, learnt on the job, trained hard and honed their skills to be where they are today. They have a huge talent base of young hungry players with a few experienced players guiding the missiles. They have very kindly tapped away on a keyboard and given you a glimpse behind their curtain to see what they do to make things work. If...

On Sunday, May 26, 2019, Baltimore Paintball League hosted their Mid-Season Mayhem Tournament, which Wanna-Play’s Factory Team signed up for. The WPP Factory Team has been around for many years, stemming into the early 2000’s, but for this particular event we had 4 fresh players with little to no tournament experience on our line. The guys were pretty excited to play and they got some looks as they geared up, since we are usually known as “the team in camo”, so they must be woodball players, right?!?! …WRONG!!! Our guys practiced and worked hard all spring, practicing drills and plays, not only finessing their individual game, but their game as a team. It was now their time to see how they handled the pressure and to put all their time well spent to the test. As it typically goes, we were one of the first games of the day. As the buzzer sounded each of the players came off the starting box wielding their GTEK 170R’s and bodies started dropping. Three bodies gone on the...

OK, maybe it’s not the best thing for Paintball Athletes but its CAKE and we love a bit of cake here at Planet HQ. Especially when they look like this, featuring an Infamous CS2. Happy 30th Birthday Andy Turner (Team Raiders) and thanks for sharing the picture of the cake. (Next time we want the cake not just pictures ;-) Eeeeerrrmmmm  CAKE !!!!!

Always nice to see a bit of Paintball love in video games.. I'm not talking about the Paintball dedicated games like Greg Hasting Tournament Paintball games and the like i'm talking about things like this that I spotted in Pixel Gun 3D a cool special 'Rare' Paintball Rifle :-) What other video games have tipped their hats to Paintball over the years? I remember Lemmings Paintball. Any more? Lets see how many we can name.

Here at Planet Eclipse we pride ourselves on our network of service centers  around the World, putting factory trained technicians on the ground at hundreds of locations to support our players and customers. But there is a cost to doing this, and that cost is usually shouldered by the Planet Eclipse Distributors and dealers in their specific regions. There are some players that choose to "grey import" markers into protected territories from dealers outside of their region. These players then expect the local dealer, in their area, to fix their marker free of charge when they have a problem or need a service/tune up. In order for our local distributor, Raskal Sports, to be able to continue to support our products in the way that you, our customers, deserve, we will be implementing a new warranty system in Malaysia. From the 1 st  July 2019 all Planet Eclipse markers purchased from Raskal Sports or one of their official dealers in Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Indone...

Article #11 in the History of Planet Eclipse brings us to our factory team. The SandBaggers. To many teams and players around the world, the SandBaggers name will be very well known. To some, it'll be from having HUGE nights drinking with the team and regretting it for many, many weeks to follow. To others it will be because of memorable games on the field. And some will have been signed up to the team as they travel, to join in the fun. But to all, the SandBaggers is a very different Factory team, with a good heart at its core. A team that encourages, enables and supports players who can't play competitively any more because life got in the way or whatever. The SandBaggers represents the heart and soul of what it means to play paintball. To play as hard as you can, with the people you want to play with without the pressures or expectations of the modern game. Rock up. Have fun. Smash teams. Get smashed. Laugh. Go home. Make stories up. But for a deeper insi...
