You guessed it, player in every sense of the word, Oliver Lang’s $100,000 move to Dye and the LA Ironmen did not go unnoticed. Though this move rippled the paintball world with shockwaves, this financial deal is still a drop in the ocean when pitched against other extreme sports ranked lower than paintball. So what does it mean for you? You’ll find a full interview with the underlying issues that confronted Lang and a complimentary Speaker’s Corner on what this deal really means for our industry.
As ESPN’s televised NPPL is now a reality, Facefull reporter Evan Rosenberg went to the source, interviewing non-paintball sports commentators on what paintball can do to get better. It’s a head to head television feature pitching ESPN against Duke Hillinger’s UAPL. And the winner?
In this case, you. With a full report on the PSP Texas leg and an intricate tech article on technology platforms. Will the Max-Flo micro, new Eclipse Ego and Alien remains pass our tech tests? You’ll also find a corrected interview of Rocky Knuth, profiles of Miami Raiders, Tyler Michaud, Frank Connell, plus Dynasty Diaries… Oh, and one more thing.
Battle Stations
Starting in this issue, two new strategy columns, an A-Z on how to get your team into the finals at your local tournament, and a new column entitled Battle Stations. The latter is the creation of Facefull’s Andrew Hollowell, giving a the worst-case scenario that you’ll have to solve. With the clock running, of course. So what happens if your snake player dislocates his shoulder, you’re a three on four, and there’s 2 minutes left on the clock? We’ve asked some of paintball’s up and coming strategists to give us their version.
