      there is only concrete on less then an acre of land... and I guarantee youll spend half of your time on it. add the over 6,000,000 paintballs being shot and it gets a little slippery. they actually take small breaks to "wash" the city

        stay hydrated, travel light when playing, and stay out on the field as much as you can.

          Hmm. See I don't actually remember playing in the city that much the first couple of times. The last time, more so, but still not "most" of the time by any stretch of the imagination. I agree on the hydration, but also think people should play smart and take breaks. Its an hour south of Chicago and during that time of year can vary from 70-90 degrees and humid as all get out. Don't be a hero, its only paintball, take breaks as needed. Every year they have a couple of people go down due to dehydration/overheating. Don't be one of them.

              This must be something new. Previously, the bases were back in the woods or in the one case the Easternmost clearing. I was going by years past and wasn't there last year. Sounds like the setup has changed somewhat.

                  the bases are still where they were... I just know that vandals mission will be to secure and hold the city....

                    Along with hydration......

                    Get salt capsules.

                    I take 3 a day when I'm playing in the heat, and in Florida, well this past saturday it was upper 80"s, so we know a thing or two about heat..

                    Himalayan sea salt is an unprocessed natural mineral.

                    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Himalayan-Cr...item2a35a0ccc2

                    Thats the ones I take with me when its hot for paintball.

                    Salt retains fluids and helps prevent dehydration.

                    No massive headaches from dehydration !

                          Iodine is added to processed table salt.
                          This is a natural mineral taken from mines.
                          So no, it has not had iodine added.



                          I stopped using table salt years ago.
