Are Blind Layouts Better for Paintball? and I Tried to Fix My Pump

from Paintball Ruined My Life Live · host Paintball Ruined My Life

Welcome back to the stream! Tonight, I’m tackling one of the most debated topics in competitive paintball: Should the NXL move to blind layouts? I share my thoughts on why keeping teams in the dark could bring back the "sneakiness" and excitement that makes the sport great. I’m also stoked to announce my new partnership with Carbon Paintball! I’m breaking down why the Carbon Zero is my favorite mask on the market right now—from the breathability to the storm fans. Later in the show, we watch some incredible (and hazy) Glow Ball footage from the recent night event at Capital Edge, discuss the news that Ninja Paintball is officially back in production under new ownership, and track the latest pro roster shakeups for the Ironmen and Sea Dogs. To wrap things up, I grab the tools and try to diagnose why my old Empire Sniper is leaking and why the pump handle is acting up.
