Planet Eclipse May Covid-19 Shipping Update. Over the last few days the number of messages we have received asking about production schedules and the delivery of certain products has increased. Below is our current situation, so people Worldwide will know where we are up to, and what is happening. Planet Eclipse Offices. Our US Office has remained open with a slightly reduced staff, so orders of current stock are still being processed. Our UK Office, where the production of high end product is performed (such as the CS2, GEO4 and LV1.6) has started to bring in a few production staff, but it is still very much under staffed. Our German Office is now back up and running and their walk-in store is open again. The German on-line store is up and running but the USA and UK on-line stores will remain closed, so we can focus on supplying our valuable global dealer network. You can find your local Eclipse Dealer here: Planet Eclipse Dealer Locator Production. If only it was as eas...

Ok terrible pun, we couldn't resist, but in these crazy times many of you are dusting off the hex keys, actually opening the spares baggy and in some (rare) cases, reading the manuals we create.

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

The Tonton snake-side surgeon, the incredible Axel Gaudin had this to say when we asked him about the current situation. Photo: © All In Media Do you have your own personal plan for keeping yourself on point so you’re always ready? I don’t have a planned program, but I do have a workout everyday. I got myself a routine of a 10 minute stretching/warmup, 30/40 min workout prep + workout, 5 min cool down. I have the chance to have a sport-center at work and can do my workout before lunch. I like to have a running  session once a week, but mostly based on speed/cardio and not long distance. I also do some street rollerblading every now and then during the week. What kind of drills do you do at home ? If you can. I have a stretching/mobility routine that includes all the positions I’m using when in a snake bunker (cake+beam let’s say). I basically get some repetitions done to build muscular memory on the body movement. It’s also a position that builds mobility all arou...

Who better to ask about keeping sharp in the current climate than the player with a lifetime season pass to the MVP lounge. San Antonio XFactor's Archie Montemayor. Photo: George Fava Do you have your own personal plan for keeping yourself on point so you’re always ready? For me the off season never really exists. Most of my routine stays the same throughout the year. I play often and my mind is on the game all the time. I'm always thinking about ways I can improve myself, the team, teammates, how I can talk about things. It's just about being mindful, which is more important than ever right now. What kind of drills do you do at home? If you can. For drills at home, I make sure I am in good physical and cardio shape, and I like to have my full setup in my hands when I am home. The more my gun is in my hands the more comfortable and "at one" I am with my gun the better.  Photo: George Fava Do you have a usual core of local players who pla...
