MPOC3 Map


No more Hello kitty- looks like a crab with stubby claws.

Good news for Ivan- its the Pattaya/Kedah snake and 2 big center back bunkers to back your ass up. Nice run of big big bunkers running up into the Doritos too.

LAYSICK SUBVERT PANTS


Last week I featured Laysick's sick pro jersey jerseys - here are the pants which will be out soon. HK will be wearing them however Entourage is wearing the Empire Pants.

PRACTICE THE SOKC FIELD AT RED DYNASTY THIS WEEK


The Sultan of Kedah Field Layout will be set up at Red Dynasty for teams to practice this weekend. The Red Sevens will be practicing at 3pm this Saturday and will aslo be there on this Sunday for XKay's snake Clinic. Yes you will get the opportunity to learn how to play the snake on the actual snake layout at will be at SOKC.

EYE CANDY - ROYAL PURPLE DYE NT

Once in a while I stumble across something special online. This Purple NT iss for sale on PbNation for USD1800. Purple not exactly a common colour in paintball which makes this Purple NT really stand out.



ANGEL FLY MASK BLACK WHITE COLOURS

Angel has released the now famous Fly mask in 2 basic colours of black and white. The big external lens certainly makes the mask look more like a pair of fashionesque sunglasses rather than a practical piece of paintball safety equipment.

I guess Angel needs one or two pro teams to wear them to really give it credibility on the field. Otherwise it'll end up like NXe's Jrny loader which disappeared off the scene as soon as it was launched - remember that one?

NEW DYE DM10 AND NT COLOURS

Dye have released the DM10 in 2 new colours and the NT in Team Editions.


The DM10 comes in Aloha which is a break away from the agg feel and going with a hot Hawaiian summer look with the sunset and coconut trees. I wonder how many of these will sell.


The Bomber has shark teeth is reminiscent of Johnny Pechak's (?) WWII P40 Mustang fighter plane influenced DM8


The Charge has a nice combination of red and black which is a popular colour scheme. I wonder why they didnt do the Ironmen edition NT in this read rather than the purple-ish Ironmen shield.


Team edition NTs for Ironmen Tampa Bay Damane Brazils Jungle Boyz and Way out

This is the first time I come across Way Out's NT so here is a closer look.


Tampa Bay Damage's Team NT was the first Team Edition NT to come out at PSP Phoenix earlier this year

SICK JERSEYS FROM LAYSICK


HK with their new "cult status jersey"- debuted at Huntington Beach last month. Laysick signing HK means instant following from the army of HK fans

Most of us would be familiar with Laysick's jerseys when Dean Apcar brought his London Shock 2 team out Kuala Lumpur for World Cup Asia last year and I featured UK paintball brand Laysick about 2 years ago on my blog.


Laysick's US Pro team signing - Newport Entourage with their signature green

Two years on and in 2010, Laysick have taken big strides and signed 2 big names in professional paintball across the pond in America. They have signed Newport Entourage who have bumped up into Pro Division for 2010 and as well as cult team Hollywood HK otherwise famously known as HK Army.

Laysick is represented by PBFashion in America and as all HK fans would know PbFashion have been long time sponsors of HK - thus there is the link to Laysick. What better way for PbFashion to promote Laysick than to get their biggerst name to wear it on the field.


London Shock have been with Laysick for many years and each edition they tweak the colours and design of their jersey while maintaining the primary colours and style.

Also in for 2010 is a full range of kit from packs to pants all of which will be worn by HK and will be available soon.

As I mentioned 2 years ago when I first featured Laysick - the detailing of the 414 jerseys are really superb. The panels and choice of colours are distinct and different from the style pallets from the major paintball brands so getting a Laysick Custom Lab jersey would certainly make you team stand out at the tournament.


London Shock 2's 2010 jersey closely follows the Shock family style


This Bulldogs jersey is really nice with the use of colours which are not often used in paintball- Cyan and Magenta - this will certainly make your team stand out from the rest of the usual reds blues etc

The model 414 jerseys you see here were designed by Laysick custom lab
Features:HALF GLOVE INTEGRATION, MULTIPLE VENTED MESH AREAS TO KEEP AIRFLOW AROUND THE BODY COOL, ELBOW AND SHOULDER PADDING & LAYSICK STYLING.

SINGAPORE POLY PAINTBALL


Fadzly in red is a Singapore Poly student and a staff at Red Dynasty and Aaron is in black next to him, both are students who are helping to set up an paintball CCA at Singapore Poly

Some of the RED SEVENS and staff of Red Dynasty were at Singapore Poly during last week promoting paintball as a sport. After gathering 120 names of people interested in playing paintball as a sport, 45 guys and a girl rocked up today at Red Dynasty Paintball Arena.

The purpose of this exercise was to help promote paintball at Singapore Poly and to help them set up an CCA Co-Curricular Activity club which hopefully will be recognised and gather funding from the School. This has the promise to what we hope to be the first tertiary institution in Singapore to have a Paintball Club and Paintball team.

Big turnout by the students from Singapore Poly

Jane showing how she wants the agility skills to be done

Paul putting the groups through the "suicide run"

We put the participants through some running and ability drills and split the groups into teams. There was some team building and social games to get everyone to get to know each other.

I am quite excited at the possiblity of Singapore Poly being the first school in Singapore to have a paintball CCA and paintball team and the turn out today and enthusiasm from the participants has been great.

I hope to see interest from the other polytechnics and universities in Singapore to set up teams so we can have a inter tertiary competition going between all the colleges and universities in Singapore.

Thank you to the crew at Red Dynasty Ben Jane Fuzz Kenny and Red Sevens Paul for helping out at the event today and everyone from Singapore Poly who turned up.

We hope to see you on the field soon.

ROGUE STATUS


I stumbled upon this LA Based Brand on Friday and they have some pretty sick stuff. They do designs for some street, skate and motor sports and a lot of collaborations with other street labels. I love their signature gun pattern which looks great applied across a wide range of products


The signature gun pattern t shirt


Skate trucks

iPhone and laptop skins

'Grenade' hoodie


Dope sneakers


Collaboration with Diamond

And thanks to aSpaceApe for posting up links to these two Rogue Status DM9s. I was just thinking that Rogue Sports should do something for paintball and these laser etched DM9s look really good. They are on sale on PbNation the Black one is USD825 and the Gold one is USD850.

FRANKFURT SYNDICATE 2010 JERSEY


Previous editions of Syndicate's jerseys have had shade of gray, however the 2010 edition is a break from the grays and more red thrown into it.

The LOVE and HATE is still on the shoulders with a new aggressive "S" shield logo on the chest and a new "Syndicate" logo as well.

They have retained MacDev Rockstar and are shooting DXS paints (Ah I see the link here Pat ;) NXe soft goods, V Force Masks and Virtue have replaced Tadao. MAXS is the biggest Paintball supplier in Germany and support from PbNation and PbPortal.de
Notably missing is JT which has been a long time sponsor.
