    ive never used one but it doesnt just add range, you can supposedly adjust the backspin so that you can vary the amount of curve put on the ball and shoot over bunkers or around trees to a limited extent

        Can you turn off the backspin "option" and use it like a "regular" body. Also does it come in centerfeed? I just wanna use it for the centerfeed and cocker-barrel threading...

          The backspin plate can be fully retracted into the body so that it is "off". It only comes with a removable HL powerfeed, no centerfeed is available.

            Yeah, it's power-feed HL ONLY. no HR for you lefties, or Warp users. Main reason I ditched it.

            It was fun while I had it tho. Toss in a lvl 10, and some super-brittle paint (hellfire) and you've got a winning combination (IMO)

            Great for woodsball, which I played a lot of.

              Hey Major...if all you're interested in is centerfeed and the ability to use cocker barrels...look into a MicroMag body. I'm thinking it's probably cheaper than buying a zbody. I know I bought one for about 100 bux.

                ...to a limited extent. (limited) i just read that by adjusting the backspin you can put a slight curve on the ball to make it curve around obstacles. like if a normal gun would shoot straight, you could aim the zbody gun just right so the trajectory may get a person whose arm is sticking out behind a tree. i didt mean the zbody can curve balls at like a 90* angle, maybe like a 3-4* angle.
