Yeah. My first thought was '94 isn't even close to old school. '89, that would be old school, and I know old! ;)

well, its old for me! Never acutally seen a tournament where guys don't wear full masks and ran around in camo in the woods.

Blizzardball 94-96 I was there and there were tons of guys playing with just goggles, no face mask. I remember several ear hits, what a mess. As for old school, I think not! The paint was not oil based anymore and there were tons of semis on the tourney scene, no electros, just mags, cockers, tippmans, and the odd spyder. VL2000 were running rampant, players finally realized what agitators would do for the sport. WOW how this sport/technology has changed... I remember the first time I saw an angel what a plain looking hunk of... junk!:D Sorry about the rambling, the memories are flowing...

Hell ya! LOL I know it sounds scary, but back then the original RT was coming out, they were expensive no one was sure about the "new" technology in the RT. At that time spyders, tippmans were about even with mags and cockers. You have to remember that back then the cocker had very few actual performace upgrades, and the mag had even less. Here's s tidbit of info for you, everybody used to run remote, I remember going to one tourney where there was only one on-gun setup there out of 84 5man teams. Not at all like today....
