notice the Gridock pants in the last sequence. was it a G-lock player or just someone who bought some pants off someone? do other fields with predominantly speedball players (ie- the PBCs) usually send a group to scenarios?

I was amazed at the speed all the teams had.

(OPINION ALERT ) I wonder if that's why they call it SPEEDBALL... Colorful jerseys and hanging the flag... If you paint a pig pink and tie a bow to its tail, it's still a pig. Maybe it should be called Tactical Speedball. Might certainly fit more than Scenario. Wheres the mission cards? Role Players? Props? It's a great form of our sport, but it just doesn't look like scenario ball. Look back a few years... Rod can tell you. Tourney ball started in the woods in a manner almost identical. (STEP OFF BOX)

ANYWAY, there are some excellent pics, Rich! Cant wait to see the rest... I love the guy with the Custom 98 and a Dye Throttle.

I agree with you.

We love playing at the SPPL, but having Tippmanns and a lot como we felt a little out of place. Overall we did have a lot fun, but it was a lot like speed ball in the woods on field 1. But field two was set up nice.

Hoefully the SPPL can keep the woodsball teams coming out to play.

Junkie great pic cant wait to see more.

Funny you ask. That was an LCP player wearing those pants. However, California Gridlock did compete in this event.
