X Paintball: Beyond the Paint

I happened to be channel surfing and it seems that season 2 of X paintball: Beyond the paint has begun airing today. It airs at 4:30ct on fsn. I only saw a couple of episodes from the first season because I had class when it aired last year so I’m not entirely sure if anything is different from last season.

The show started with coverage from NPPL Jacksonville 2008 and interviews with many of the top pros. They talked about future events so they may be covering those events as well but that’s unlikely due to amount of time needed for video editing. It’s pretty much the same show from what I know, just with new footage. It’s still not as good as the ESPN coverage of Commander’s Cup in 2006 then again Beyond the Paint has a slightly different direction with the show. Still, it’s nice to see paintball on tv at a decent time.

Sponsors for the show are Spyder, KEE, Rockstar Energy Drinks, JT Sports, and the United States Marine Corps.

Gearbag Babysitter

Players obviously bring their equipment with them to events, and this equipment values to lots of moola. Unfortunately, some people are douchebags and decide to steal your shit and sell it. Well, APPA has a solution for this situation and that is players are now able to bring their gearbag to the registration tent and pay a $10 fee for them to secure all your gear so you have more time to play around at the event without having to worry about your gear being unattended. There will also be an option to have your stuff locked up overnight, so you don’t even have to bother hauling all your gear to and from the hotel. Gear-sitting will  begin at the  2008 Chicago PSP Open.
