On the 9th of April, we went back to Parque da Vila in Samora Correia to play the second stage of the RLA (Adrenalicia Lisbon Regional). This tournament consisted of 14 teams divided in to three groups. Of these 14, two of them, Sport Lisbon Benfica and Paintshot (under the name of Parque da Vila), premiered on this league. The best of luck to them! The next group was composed by Estoril Praia, Falcões azuis, Reloaded and ourselves. We started the day with a 2-0 win against Estoril Praia, which has some experienced players, however we planned our game and we were able to play it accordingly and calmly, ultimately resulting in our win. Our second game of the day was against Falcões azuis. We didn’t change much in our game plan, we tried to keep the same posture and to rotate some of our players. We ended up winning our second game of the morning 2-0. After the lunch brake, we still had two games of the prelims to play, one of them didn’t happen as the team w...

https://www.facebook.com/Ontariopaintballleague/ The Ontario Paintball League and Behind the Bunker started the 2017 Canadian paintball season with a blast this past weekend at Flag Raiders Paintball. Clear skies and 20 degrees Celsius was perfect weather for the first event of the year.  D3 Summary - There was excellent play from all teams, but it's evident that the Momentum organization came out to play. Momentum showed a strong push up the middle of the field, and great composure throughout tight situations. During the final match, Momentum had to fight off a last minute comeback effort from Attrition, lead by Ben Challenger and Derek Thompson. Attrition's 'buzzer beating' efforts were no match for Momentum’s consistency, artfully demonstrated by Travis Brake, Zak Carless, David Tandory, and Andre Gravelle.  D4 Summary - Cambridge Raiders played 5-alive, methodical paintball all weekend long, but with the NXL Las Vegas Layout clearly favouring the ...

As you all know, we've re-released our latest marker into the Planet Eclipse line-up but many of you may have noticed that it isn't actually what you'd call NEW, right? Well, you'd be 100% correct. But why would we just re-release an old marker and make a bit of a song-and-dance about it? That's pretty easy to explain. The original Etha was a shining light at the sub $350 price bracket mainly due to the amount of effort that we put into it, and ALL of our markers if we're honest. Our focus on supreme design, build quality and performance meant that the Etha was over engineered in some respects. Because our vision of 'Entry Level' differed from the rest of the pack. Which is why the Etha was as successful as it was. The release of the Etha2 was more than just an evolution of the Etha, it was a revolution (our marketing ninjas penned it The Ethalution) and it became so much more than an incredible low cost marker. In reality this left a hole whe...

https://www.facebook.com/MVPSevents/ Nothing like a quiet 3 hour drive to clear the mind. Destination, Xtreme PB Xperience host of event#2   for Maximum Velocity Paintball Series (MVPS) Spring Skirmish. Field owners Billy and Danna Matney have been running XPX for quite some time and are known for being one of the best Paintball Fields in Florida.   XPX was in the process of setting up a second field for games the next day. After picking a good spot to set up the Tech Booth I got to work setting up the tent, table, chairs and banners to have everything ready for games early Saturday morning....Players were pleased to say the least.  Saturday met us with overcast conditions for a good part of the day and of course the Paintball Gods blessed us yet again with a slight shower just to keep things fun and wet. Teams rolled in and the minor issues started to pop up. Nothing I hate worse than a Paintball player that never cleans their marker. I fix markers, m...
