So either:
A) By double trigger you mean rocking trigger.
B) Walking a double trigger is far easier on a high end electro.
C) I have not yet grasped the "trick" to walking any gun with a double trigger.

A) Never heard it called rocking trigger.
B) Absolutely. All you have to do is literally tap the bottom and top of the trigger. We're talking mouse click here.
C) Walking any mechanical gun with a double trigger is near impossible. You either need some reactivity (which is illegal in most tournies) or a pneumag/ULT kit from AGD

All about the angles. You try to get one section. Its a faster paced game and I think thats what people like about it. I cant stand playing slow woodsball. So boring just sitting behind a tree waiting.

That's why in woodsball there is usually an objective other than just elimination...like SPPL or capture the flag or even just having a time limit. Otherwise a woodsball game could last 3 days as "snipers" take up positions and never move. Usually you don't see that at most woodsball fields because of the 15-20 minute time limits. Outlaw paintball is usually where you see that.

I have a similar sort of opposite knock on sppedball which is it's too fast paced. By the time I get my bearings...there's like 2 people eliminated off of each team and people screaming "Dorito!" and I can't even think because there's like 40 balls hitting that damn inflatable thing right next to my ear. And that's if it's one of the 2 out of 3 games you don't get hit by some blind lob shot off the break. No thank you. I like to take the time at the beginning of a battle to survey the field, formations, opposition movements...maybe have a cup of Joe and a Snickers as I plan my move. Maybe even take a little nap or read the paper.

A rocking trigger isn't attached to the gun at the top, it's attached in the middle. So you pull it on the top and then the bottom and it fires each time...sort of like a fulcrum or see-saw.

B) Absolutely. All you have to do is literally tap the bottom and top of the trigger. We're talking mouse click here.

That's what I thought. I don't use high end electros...mostly mechanicals...one low end electro just to stay diverse.

C) Walking any mechanical gun with a double trigger is near impossible. You either need some reactivity (which is illegal in most tournies) or a pneumag/ULT kit from AGD

Exactly my point.

Well, you can walk an Ion trigger . . . and an Ion is . . . low end . . . I guess. Its just more accurate cus you're not jerking the gun around like you do when you fan a trigger. Meh, I just go with whatever works.

Whoa!

How dare you call an Ion low-end!

You are about to start the avalanche of pro-Ion posts like the world has never seen.

I'm getting out of this thread before Ion mafia attacks!

On battle of the gridiron stars

I caught it lastnight and they were having paintball duels with NPPL refs (well at least they had nppl jerseys on them).
