Oh the golden age of paintball😊

this was the best era of paintball ever

I miss everything about the 2000s maaan

I was on my way down to cedar city Utah to play the Utah summer games paintball tournament back in 2005 and actually bumped into John Almera from dynasty at the gas stat In the middle of no where. He hooked me up with a badass dynasty NXE pack and tank cover just cause I knew who he was lol. I’ll never forget it.

Greenspan just won another championship with Dynasty in 2023 unbelieveable where did the time go

I was one of the lucky ones to play during this age of paintball. Almost even made it to the NPPL! Ah the great memories.

I’m sad. I almost got into it during what seems to be the “golden age” now. bought a gun and everything, and watched this stuff, but only did it a few times.

I remember watching this when these episodes where first aired on television. Good times 🙂

There are some amazing hype videos with motivation speeches from paintballers in the past that I miss.

The glory days of speedball. Man how I miss it!

I use to live in a hotel in Kissimmee called home sweet homes Niki burg by old town… and as kids we use to huddle up in my room with other unfortunate kids and watch this I’m now 32 still playing competitive paintball and always look back at these videos and remember the way I use to dream to own a smart parts gun now I own a geo4 cs3 and a cs2

Bruh live the dream... own a SP gun ;)

paintball was recorded so much better back then

BROOOO I REMEMBER TURNING ON ESPN TO WATCH THIS

I played Amature A in NPPL against Naughty Dogs, Avalanche and Dynasty a few years before this in 10 man. It was the year Naughty Dogs killed in the pro division. Had a ton of fun doing so with my Bob Long Defiant tricked out.

This brings back memories, appreciate the video

I remember skipping school to go and see this with my buddy at the casino here haha it was incredible

as a PSP and CFOA player from 2006.. it was a outstanding time to play

My mom took me out of school for the day so we could go and watch. I got a blurry pic with troll...an awesome lifetime memory I'll never forget

Will always have a soft spot for Dynasty. I took my GZ Intimidator to Pev's (their store), they had an event that weekend so took it with them to have the actual Bob Long tech fix it. It apparently got all squared away, they had their weekend, came back... and the airport folks had stolen my marker from their luggage. Because the GZ was no longer in production, they hooked me up with a brand new 2k5 Alias. Really cool of em.

Holy shit, just stumbled on this. I remember watching this on ESPN back in high school. What a wild nostalgia flashback.

Guys will see this and think - “hell yeah”

Best time for paintball

God i love watching colt get lit up. He was so dang good but such a poopy head. Hope hes grown up since then

I miss this kind of paintball from a spectator standpoint. The current NXL laning/denial of access meta, and carrying 15 pods on the field is not it.

So many less bunkers back then, compared to the modern day field layouts. I quit playing tournaments around 2008 and when i came back in 2012/2014 I was so frustrated with field layouts, things were so different. What do you mean by 'denial of access' though?

@paintballertw

@@TazmanianDevil381 I think he is referring to many teams going out and just taking a case on their back to shoot out a single lane for 6 minutes straight. while it makes sense, it just is boring to watch.

@@paintballertw ohhhh i see. yea i would agree with that. back in the day bumping up was harder and you were rewarded with that. i go run scrims at my local field and get to the 40 early and still have trouble finding more than 1 guy to shoot. but i guess old guys will always find something to complain about :)

I mean honestly from a spectator stand point I really don't mind how long a point lasts vs current matches. You can sit back and watch it like a traditional sportsball game I don't feel like I have to pause if I want a drink or a snack. I do love playing open layouts though where making a trade is a build up, moves have to be planned and performed instead of waiting for a gap in a lane, where shooting the guy moving takes more skill due to the distance. And I get that its expensive but can we please for the love of the game bring back at least 15bps? Maybe even some uncapped semi only where you actually have to be good at running it? And on man, even turf for big slides, so much more entertaining.

Well, it depends on the field... some places would be charging 60 a case for the "cheap" stuff when stores carried it for 40.

As the guy who is currently starting up the national airsoft league, this is something else to watch. The announcers are actively trying to figure out what to say. To think we let this happen as a human society is a mystery. Nerf or nothin.
