Well, a week after my trip to beautiful Maui and I have these things to share with you all.
First, I want to thank AO member Maui PFB for his wonderful paintball hospitality.
Now on to the paintball.
There are 2 ways to play ball in Maui, organized or renegade. Now we all know renegade paintball is not the prefered method of going out, but! I had a wonderful time and would go back in a heartbeat.
We did play renegade paintball on the only Sunday I was there. It was me, Maui PFB and my friend Jason and about 25 locals..
I shipped my equipment straight to my hotel. Getting paint wasn't a problem, there are a couple local stores that have supplies, and the one that I DID go to was very helpful and deserves my business if I ever come back. Air was supplied from multiple scuba tanks that are abundant in Maui.
The field, which you'll see in a couple photos, is actually someone's backyard! Big enough for a couple more fields, the 1 field they have is large enough for a good 7 to 10 man tourney. With a wooded theme, it was a lot like playing back home. Except I didn't have to worry about dressing warm ;)
The competiton was very good. Of the 30 or so people there, almost all of them played regularly. A lot of young players with high priced equipment ran around everwhere. You could also hear the tell tale sound of FA every now and then from an electro on the field. there were around 6 or so Mags on the field, while the rest was a broad mixture of Angels to cockers to spyders. I got a ton of looks on my E-Mag, and I do believe I sold a few of the locals on Warp Feeds.
All in all I had a great time and am counting the days till I get back to that beautiful island.
