Guest TheBearsPaintball Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hey! I use to post a little bit on these forums a few years ago and haven't seen DSO since John is with Furthur but am looking forward to the National show in Richmond VA. Anyway I play paintball alot and have put together some videos on youtube and used the Dead's music in them. Just thought I'd share, tell me what you think. Hopefully I won't get sued for copyright stuff, its pretty much just me and my brother and some friends playing with us at times. www.youtube.com/TheBearsPaintball Morning Dew, Other One, Bertha Born Cross Eyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP cm_hayden Posted February 4, 2011 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Interesting concept. Would like to try the sport, but I need recommendations about equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheBearsPaintball Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 What sort of questions do you have? I'd recommend playing at an organized field to get a taste of what its like before dropping alot of money. However the down side of that is most fields equipment isn't very good and if you can't see out of your mask and your gun isn't working very well how are you suppose to have a good time? They sell masks with thermal lens and you can rig computer fans in your mask like I have to prevent fogging and you can purchase markers that shoot very well for a minimal amount of money. The marker we use in the vids was $220 for example. Paintball is a great sport you can get into at any age and take as seriously as you desire. Its about the only team sport you can play after high school and college without having to sign up for a league or dedicate enormous amounts of time unless thats what you want, thats available too. The scenario games I've attended have the feel of a festival and the sportsmanship tends to be very high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP cm_hayden Posted February 14, 2011 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 No personal equipment, up till now borrowed. What I need is a gun, there's a specialty store in my area. Any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advisory Board Herdygerdy Posted February 14, 2011 Advisory Board Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 I've only played paintball 3 times, but damn was it fun!!! What a great way to release some stress! First time out ever, I get shot in the face, between the face mask, and the helmet... left a nice welt on my forehead for about 3 days... hurt like hell, but I got revenge!!
