I think it is damn foolish to have rules written so that pros can play for Novice or D2 or whatever teams. That said, if the rules do not prohibit it, I see no reason not to. Paintball morality is pretty much win however you can, within the rules or outside the rules if you can get away with it.

I think the fact that Planet has a stable of free agents sponsored is very cool. Individual sponsorship is the wave of the future.

hot n spicy uk scene

We just want to spice things up a little bit.

Ooooh, is it getting hot in here?

Seriously though, I know dudes will kick off about the whole ringers issue but we aren't here to cause trouble but to play ball and try to lift teams spirits and skill levels a bit. The gap between domestic and the pro bracket is huge and I didn't realise how huge until we played EXL last year. Teams we struggled against in 2k3 we can now smash to pieces with ease and to be honest that aint a good thing is it? AND I'm just talking about the three of us, not even with a full team :D We can't see how the domestic scene has improved so thought lets see if we can make some sort of difference and of course try and show off some great new products in the process. We aint the most experienced ballers out there and we aren't gonna revolutionise UK paintball but we are on the pulse and know some tricks so are we in the wrong to want to spread the love a little?

I also think everyone presumes that the lower divisions will get smashed up, wrong, we will play any division and if a Div A team feels the need for some input then we are more than happy to do that. Also, if we play on a lower end team we will more than likely play towards the back and help improve front guys confidence levels and aggression, its all about development and not smashing up lower ranked players.

By the way, has anyone tried the new Eclipse EGO with a Pure Energy 45 and MidEvil paint? Truly an awesome combination. ;)

Hmmmm, good question

I'd say more of a Murdoch really. Face was too slick for me and Hannibal is a bit slow for my likes, I'd like to say BA but I'm way too skinny, white and am geddin on that plane sucka. Anyone remember Amy? She was hot but was written out early doors.
