Hey Capo if these are the worst, I'd like to see some good ones

heres a shocktech matrix

Yah, thats the new Freeflow Matrix... apparently all they do is drill and bore out the inside which makes the gun so much more efficient and smooth shooting. Negates the need for bolt kits and schtuff.

I barely took any pics all week (since I kept forgetting my camera in my hotel room) but here's a few

And his team Cyclone. It doesn't look like he's using the Extreem. Blasphemy

I used my extreme through the five man, it was in the booth for people to try for much of the week and I used in in the 10 man preliminaries (we won 7/8 games and I shot a ton of paint). It went through a huge amount of paint and shots and then 10 minutes before the first semi final game it refused to shoot in electro mode (and I'd made it electro only due to an anal chrono judge).

This meant I panicked like crazy for ten minutes trying to get a gun for on field since AGD were not yet set up to tech (turns out I'd killed my solenoid somehow due to obscene number of shots and the heat and humidity). So for the finals I ended up shooting a borrowed autococker (I had been about to go on field with a Spyder borrowed from BC!)

We did very well for a European team, and I honestly believe we would have been way further up the board if the judging had been as good at the cup as it is in Europe. I was very dissapointed by the judging on many occasions (and not just in our games). There were some great judges, but a lot of bad ones (or not enough).

Ah, I thought you just broke out the Spearhead for a game. Sorry, you broke your toy.

Do you know how many shoots you put through it?

10,000? 20,000? 30,000?

No idea. I did 3-4 cases of hellfire during the 5 man event. And around 7-8 cases during the 10 man event, including a chrono test to see exactly how many shots I could get out of the gun on a good fill and with my level 10 set up. Standing at the chrono station and emptying 10 pods and a hopper is not as easy or as much fun as it sounds :) I did it while constantly checking my velocity and staying in the 290fps range. Running the gun at that high a velocity gives me more range and better paint breaking capabilities (on my targets) but is less efficient in terms of shots per tank because more energy is used per shot. I had no probs doing my ten pods and loader with a 88ci tank.

So that means at least 20,000 actual balls fired, in four and a bit days of play. WOW! and since I was showing it off and it was on the AGD stand for people to try I expect a heck of a lot more. I would't be suprised if my gun did easily over double that in shots during the week.

Now to get the manik-e-mag finished so I have a back up :)

If I hadn't disabled the manual mode I would have bee able to continue on using it anyway but I did because of some chrono refs trying to waste my whole hopper of paint in manual mode to get the gun to rip.

I'm working on a mod to get manual and electro modes but no hybrid making it easier to keep the gun completely tourny legal even under the strictest rules. It can be hard to fine tune it so that hybrid doesn't give me dual shots occasionally.
