As most will know, I have had my differences with these guys over the past year or so with things getting quite acrimonious between myself and some of them guys.

Last weekend I flew in all the guys from Nexus into Marseilles to train against the Ton Tons, Vision and JT All Stars.

The Ton Tons now have a very different line up with all of the problem people having left and now have a new young line up with Frank being their guide through Professional Paintball.

I don't know how many times we played over the weekend, something like 40 games of paintball and I did not see one example of bad play, it was the fairest weekend's paintball I think I have ever seen.

When we arrived on site, we were greeted with a large 'Welcome Nexus' banner and a bottle of Champagne.
Wherever we went, we were taken care of, it was un 'frikkin' believable.
All of the teams not only played fairly but all learned from each other, it was the perfect learning environment with no fear of cheating or Monday morning bragging rights.
I want to say a huge thanks to Frank, Laurent and Lionel (Vision) and of course to all the players who attended.
We will definitely be going back.

Frank and Laurent have now put right everything that maybe was wrong and now Ton Tons can once again be respected for being a great French Paintball team.

Respect !

PS Frank - tu es le Monsieur :)

Nexus-TonTon training

Hello Robbo, Nexus and the forum :)

As Robbo made an effort to speak french on our forum I'll do the same to speak english. (but I'm not sure it's the right section to post)
And as Robbo said, I want to apologize for my english :)
Maybe some people don't know, the last weekend, Nexus was in Marseille to practice against (with?) Vision, Jt All Stars and TonTon.

For sure it was a very nice practice time, for a lot of reasons:
- the weather was good, the paint too (better sunday than saturday...)
- the teams skill was (very?) good and it's so good to play against differents teams.
- Frank's crew was, as they're always, very fine, the sandwiches were very very good and the marshalls worked hard....

But the best thing for me (and the TonTons) is we made a very important step for the english-french relations.
As I told Robbo, the past is the past and TonTon "new blood", as Nexus "new blood" are very happy to be so close now.
Everybody proved this weekend a good relationship is possible and really I hope to see my new english friends later in Marseille for a new practice time.

I want to thank Frank too, for his fantastic work for this week end, Tony for his sympathy and the time he spent with me talking on the train.
I wish to Nexus a very good tournament in Huntington Beach in a few days.

All the best

Loic

...unfortunately Steve, they actually use the word 'monsieur' for the parallel meaning so whilst the literal use would be 'homme', the actual French usage is 'monsieur' :)


..sorry mate :):)
