    The Pursuit Pod ?

    Great new pod ? I think not !
    A waste of Polyvinyl Chloride if you ask me.

      it's a good premise but there's way too much wasted space in the pod

          Makes sense actually. Not something I would use personally but I can see the point.

            mind sharing the point of this type of pod? I'm just not seeing it, unless people with ocd like to keep their balls in straight lines. Your cutting the # of balls per pod by ~1/3rd. As for breaking a ball in the pod, mid-game loading you would never have time to inspect the pod for broken balls and then block the broken section. I'm not trying to knock you, I am just curious to know what you think that value of this type of pod is?

            Only thing I can think of is rapid reloading of 10 round feed tubes or maybe reloading stock class markers?

              i see it being very nice for loading little 40 and 50 round hoppers and not having to deal with making mini pods and such.

              and i really hate breaking paint in a pod. especially when i only buy one bag for a day. i hate when a large amount gets wasted. its nice you can select which tubes to pour out if there is a broken ball in one of them.

                I can see it, with a little modifications it might work for stock class players. Think about it...it might replace stock class tubes if you had something opening up each space etc.

                    Basically a twist lock cap that align over each of the mini tube would work right?

                      "Innovative spring loaded cap with top sliding trap doors.
                      You can open at the top or open the middle chamber or the
                      outer chamber to load one chamber at a time by twisting the cap. Great for topping off your hopper when a full pod won't fit in the hopper."

                      I think it lets you load one tube at a time, but dont stock class markers have a trap door type loading cap?(dont you have to shove the 10 round tube through the cap to load balls) so this pod wont really work for that.

                      I guess it would be good for little hoppers....fill like 30 rounds with 2 chambers. But then again, how many people use those small hoppers?

                          Retarded. Almost as bad as Smart Parts' Collapsing pod.

                            Well if you can make it to where you can dump only one section at a time it would make a sweet alternative too ten round tubes. All you would have to do is add a small tube at the mouth.

                            two of them would be anough for a months worth of play(I mean an actual 30 days of solid play)

                              You'd just have to install a short piece of tube to use as a 'leader' to poke through the ball gate on the stock feed.

                              There's potential here but it'd take someone to redo the top section.
                              Before: "You're playing with WHAT?"
                              After: "Crap! It's that guy with the pump!"
