MY SHORT INTERVIEW WITH A LOCAL PAINTBALLER EXPERT

DARREN: What is your preference between Xball and Woodsball?

AKUMA: I prefer woodsball of coz.

DARREN: And Y is that?

AKUMA: Woodsball is more fun for me coz when I started to play paintball I started as a woodsballer.I like the feeling of a Hunter looking for its Prey...Haha

DARREN: How is Xball to you?

AKUMA: The thing between Xball and woodsball is that, Xball marker shoots more than 20 paintballs in one trigger pressed. 20 shots on one target, you will sure on target. All I am saying is Xball do not need much of accuracy but it needs more agility and speed, stamina.

DARREN: Can u tell me more of you Woodsball experience?

AKUMA: It is fun! I still remember the first time when I played my first game, after the game-master whistle. I was like do not know where to run or hide. It was so fast for me. I can’t see my target. I remembered I ended up squatting behind a barrel when all my opponents are shooting at me and I can’t raise my head coz I am too scared of being shot. All I heard was the sound-the sound which was created by the paintball hitting on the metal container. TING!! TONG!!! It makes me even scarier to lift up my head.

DARREN: After that what happened?

AKUMA: I shoot point blank... (We both laugh) I was shooting at every direction. I don’t care who and where I’m shooting. I just do not want to get shot and sent out before I can even fire my first shot. It was a cool experience.

DARREN: Did you ‘die’ fast during your first game?

AKUMA: Nope.My team mates were covering me so that I can change my hiding place.

DARREN: What did u where at you first game?

AKUMA: I wore a normal jeans and long t-shirt.

DARREN: Did it feel good after your first game?

AKUMA: Yup, it really does feel good! That’s when I got addicted by it ..haha

DARREN: Why do you say so?

AKUMA: You see after my first game, I went home, the next day I went to do research on vest, mask, goggles, Markers..Etc.

DARREN: Did you buy it?

AKUMA: Yup I bought a vest, one helmet, gloves, knee guards, and a Tippmann Marker…and some paintballs.

DARREN: Why is the knee guard for?

AKUMA: Unlike paintball, in Woodsball sometime you need to squat very long and wait for you prey.

DARREN: What about gloves?

AKUMA: It was a Dye. The reason of wearing gloves in Woodsball is when you are running fast and you needed to grab something to stop your momentum, it protects you hands from cuts and other injuries.

DARREN: So you really a fanatic huh?

AKUMA: Yeap! that is correct. I played every week without fail even though feeling tired after work.

DARREN: What do you know of Marker Modification?

AKUMA: Woodsball marker is different from Xball paintguns. One single shot in every single time you press the trigger. You can modify it by putting an e-trigger or response trigger into it.

DARREN: What is a response trigger do?

AKUMA: A response trigger makes you trigger stay long when u press it. So once it stays long you paintball will come out like non-stop.

DARREN: Have u every heard of sniper marker?

AKUMA: From what I know, what will make your paintball shoot far and accurate is to change you barrel in to a 16 inch. Not longer than that.

DARREN: Why is that?

AKUMA: This is because you paintball will burst inside before it can come out from the marker due to the pressure of the Co2 tank. Sometime the paintball why fly out of the direction you aim. Which means it will not be accurate anymore, unless you can stabilize it with an AIR REGULATOR.

DARREN: How about strategies?

AKUMA: Hmm, That’s not much as a routine strategy unlike Xball due to the different ‘nature set-up’ of the field scenario, from what I know. The basic strategy is to press forward to your opponent’s side. Once you team mate covers you, you must run forward to get a place where you won’t get spotted so easily. Then you cover for your team mates to move up. Once a team mate being shot and eliminated, you must make sure someone fill up that empty space to avoid you opponent dominate that area. The beginning of the game Is also the very important- Finding a good spot to hide. By doing this the advantage is on your side.

DARREN: Well I Think that is all for now. Thanks for you time spent with me. I have learned a lot today .I really appreciate it. I hope one day I can play on the field together with you.

AKUMA: You are most welcome brother! Yup sure why not (Laugh together)

Paintball is like what you are living in reality world. You have to face your challenges and to SURVIVE!

The best thing in paintball game is that is not just only a sport. You play in a team as a team. You need understand your team members. You communicate with them.

Of course you need accuracy, how to do a head shot beyond 50 feet and so on but when start the game as a team u have to understand you team mates action. What is his position? Why does he run there? How come he never covers you when all your opponents are shooting at you? Paintball train your mind to think FAST and quick to decide your next move.

One mistake is either you or your team mates are .Besides training in the field with your markers, you need to train your body too. Not only that, you have to train your mindset and how to switch it to survival mode.

Survival Mode is not just killing but to out smart your opponents or to protect your team mates. Trust me when you do that people will start talking bout what you have done on the field because you need to tell your team that you are not egoistic or self-centered or just want to show of your skill. You tell them that you can be trusted and you are an efficient team mate and good in leadership skills.

Do not be too pressured. Matter of fact, it’s just a sport...Let us all have a sporting paintball spirit!!!

Why am I telling you about building your character? That’s the most important part for me. May be it is not important to you but at least I, myself consider it is.

You ask me Why Dude? Yo, listen here, all of you are either studying in college, junior school, high school or Working adults right? Why character is important to you?

I tell you now. Ok, you see when you are in school or college you want something great happen to you, everybody wants it, Excellency, becoming one of your teachers’ favorite pet, Likes to have all the hottest chicks. You want popularity! So you want to become the Mr. Prom and Queen.

Well these are the ‘fade away stuff man! You get old, you will leave your college, school and this won’t follow you every time you go dude!

Be more realistic. What will follow you is what is inside of you! Your charisma and you CHARCTER!!!!

And to those who are working, you want to become rich, die rich , stay rich …you want promotions, salary increase.

You want to kick off your current CEO and grab his chair and sit on it, you want your business to grow from one tiny seed to hmmm Amazon!!! Jungle!! Haha...Whatever you want it to be.

All I’m trying to ask is what you’re going to do huh? Sleep with your boss or date your CEO’s daughter or any ways you can think of it.

A successful guy called Robert Kyosaki whom before he became successful in his business. He told himself that he wanted to become rich and successful business man but before all this he wanted to find a place where he can build his character!

He finally joined the Marines corp. After like centuries later (I was just joking, it doesn’t take that long), NOW he is the author of Rich dad Poor Dad and many books.

You see want I’m trying to tell you is that Paintball is a place where you can build that character in you. All I’m trying to deliver is that try to look for something permanent in your life!

Ok. That's all for now. Try to think what I am trying to deliver ya. C you around. Paintball rules! View Full Post......
