    For you true. For RT lover. Since his classes were canceled. And he was asking for something he can do from home. That is a real option.

      Here's the underage waiver for CPX. I don't think there's a special one for LL. I'll get in touch with Sean and let you know.

        This is really key. There's no need to carry 1200 rounds of paint if you're only going to get 800 on your tank of air. And there's no need to carry two air tanks if you're not going to carry a case of paint. Set your paint and air to run out at very close to the same time, and you can save yourself a lot of weight and reload both at the same time.

          also, at legends, if you yell "out of paint" full pods seem to anonomously find you on the field

          its truly amazing

            I definitely agree with this. I bring about 30 pods. I prefill them and put them in a cooler. I only carry five pods on the field at a time and use a 90-45 with SHP reg. This gets me through all five pods without getting too low, in the rare case that I don't get shot before running out of paint. Prefilling the pods lets me spend as little time in staging as possible. I can just swap out the pods and go. Last year, Valken was selling pods for $1 each, so I stocked up.

              i have a ninja 45/45 how much you think i can get through that? it is so damn light its unreal i could carry two tanks lol. you think that will be good enough a 45/45? they should fill it to the top and not short me like the dive shop. what i really need is links to packs that i need to look at that will work for us. i kinda like the vest and we will need to carry water and some snack bars lol

                  They will have self-fill stations near the insertion points. It really depends on how well the compressors are keeping up. Last year, they kept up fairly well. I think the lowest-pressure fill I got was about 3.5k. That was during a busy point in the day.
                  How many pods you'll get out of it will be the same as how many you get out of it during normal play. I'm guessing you will probably get about a full loader, plus 3 pods out of it. I get a full loader plus 4 pods out of my 68/45.

                        The staging area is secure enough to leave a cooler full of paint?

                          currently they have not published the location of staging area, the closer it is to camping and parking I would assume the less secure it will get

                            I haven't had a problem the last two years I did this. Two years ago, I left it in the TechPB tent. Last year, the place we setup our camp was close enough to the field, that I just staged out of our camp. It was nice to grab a quick snack while swapping pods, so I'll probably do it this way again this year. I would say that 99% of the players at this event are respectful of others' property. There is always that one douchebag who wants to ruin it for everyone else, though. I guess it's a risk I'm willing to take.

                                True. I didn't read your post that way. Doing any of these types of things from home is a great option. Never tried it, but the P90X or whatever is supposed to put a whooping on you.
