 Paintball consumes a pretty big part of my life. For those who don't know, Paintball is a sport. Some would call it an extreme sport. I'm sure most of you probably still envision a camouflage clad guy in the woods. But as you look through the pictures and read the stories here. I think you will find there's a whole other world out there that you never knew existed.

 I started playing competative paintball in Northern California. I was lucky enough to get to play Mare Island before it closed. This field is legendary in paintball. The Dynasty guys used to play there before there was a Dynasty. Eric Roberts, Ron Nelson, Daryl Trent, Micah Mclocklin, Bob and Zach Long, they all used to play there. The whole place was covered in Anise. So you came off the field smelling like a black jelly bean. I was lucky enough to become friends with Bob and Zach as well as Ron Nelson. These guys will probably never know how much of a positive influence they were to me. I was also taken under the wing of a Nor Cal charachter by the name of " Magic Carpet Bob". This guy was a fruit loop in in every sense of the word. But he was a nice guy at heart and spent alot of time in the evening during the week training me and my friends. Some of those friends went on to play on Outta Control, Dye Kids, Kapp Factory and the new Avalanche team.

 Once I moved to Florida I began to play for a local team called the Rogue's. This lasted about ayear and a half. I then went to play for Fallout for a brief period and then played the Los Angeles Open with Rebellion. This was a team that was more concerned with partying than winning. I had some issues with that. I was then picked up by Bad Karma to play the remainder of the season. That is where I stayed until 2005 when I was fortunate enough to be picked up by the JT Allstars. This team has alot of talent and I hope to learn a great deal from my team mates. With the backing of the K2 group of companies and the leadership of Mr. Tom Zawadski, the JT Allstars should do very well this season. Currently we are scheduled to attend all NPPL events across the United States as well as all of the Millenium events in Europe. Stay tuned for updates on our progress.
