Marq Victory Photoshopped

Saw these on PBNation. Some guy PS-anodized these Marq Victories. Previously I thought the Victory was not so nice looking compared to other high-end markers, but after going through these pics I'm actually starting to see their beauty. Nice...

Public Cursing!!

Putting up a posters urging the residents to manage their rubbish properly is ok, but this one is over le ba...

Impulse 2009 pics

"And the beat goes on..."

Pics of the new Impulse 2009 are out!! Take a look...


The marker looks super!! Kinda like a cross between an Ego and a Luxe, it sure is a far-cry from what the old Impulse looks like...


Here are the specs, taken from PBNation.

• Pressure balanced poppet valve allowing 1700 to 1800 shots from a 4500 psi 68ci system
• Dual regulation allowing extremely low bolt force and eliminating kick
• Air buffered firing piston shoots smoother with less vibration
• Ultra-compact in-grip regulators reduce forward weight for improved balance
• Hose-free design eliminating common leak points
• Rechargeable lithium polymer battery powering the Impulse through approximately 100,000 shots per charge
• Hinged Vision eye covers open without tools for cleaning and aren't easily lost because they stay attached to the marker
• Volume chamber fore-grip eliminates shoot-down
• Modular body design allowing for fast repairs and mix-and-match color styling
• Freak compatible barrel system accepts bore inserts for changing paint sizes
• Trigger based programming with modes for all major leagues and scenario use
• Q-Lock feedneck quickly clamps and adjusts to all high performance hoppers

The fore-grip is not a regulator but actually a gas reservoir that provides constant air supply to the valve, making it more consistent. The marker has two regulators, both housed inside the grip frame. With an operating pressure of just 50psi, the Impulse is designed to be really gentle on paint with minimum kick.

The lithium polymer battery used is said to be able to last 100000 shots, which is significantly higher than the 25000-shot Luxe. Similar to the Luxe, the eye-covers are tool-less. But instead of removing the whole cover to gain access to the eyes, the Impulse's eye-cover swings open like a door without actually separating itself from the marker, making it impossible to lose them.

From the pictures, the trigger looks similar to Luxe's. I've shot the Luxe before and they felt great, trigger-walking is super fast. If the trigger is indeed the same one, then shooting the Impulse will certainly be as nice as it looks.

With a price tag of around US$1000, the new Impulse will be more affordable than other high-end markers such as the DM9 (US$1350), the Ego9 (US$1250), the Luxe (US$1500) and the Marq Victory (US$1175).

Cardio workout for paintballers

Came across this video while surfing the internet the other day, something worth sharing with you all. It's nice that some fitness trainer is putting this up for free on the internet.

This workout is designed to improve your core strength and cardiovascular capacity. Apply it to your team's workout schedule at least twice a week 4-6 weeks out before the season. It's simple workout but very demanding. Put some hard work into it and your game will be taken to the next level.

Sneak Peek - Smart Parts Impulse 2009

There has been news on the internet about Smart Parts coming out with the new 2009 Impulse. Rumor has it that it will be released to the general public at PSP Chicago Open, June 24th.

Here are some sneak peaks i took from www.thisispaintball.ca


From the looks of it, it's going to be a 'gas-thru-grip' poppet valve, no macroline needed, and the air pressure is adjustable through the back of the grip frame!!
