I still have my copy! Man, I remember telling my friends "It's like a skate video but for paintball!!" I used to play this DVD on repeat while cruising the PbNation forums, or paddle modding my Evolution Eggy loader LOL, and tinkering with my Eblade Oracle. We grew up in the glory days boys!
y'all are cute and all, but tournament ball will always be an arms race. only the latest and greatest. all of us rec ballers have a choice what to shoot. tourney guys dont.
Damn I miss my impulse lol thing was MASSIVE and it would get to chirping away shooting lanes in the back . Dude thought it was funny and let me rip his Timmy for a game became my coach for a while Ect ahhh 2000's pb was a great time.
I started playing in the 90s but the early 00s were truly the absolute pinnacle of paintball. It was such a badasss time. New markers were dropping all the time and there was so much innovation and it seemed like no matter where you were, there was a paintball field and shop. I miss how big paintball was during this decade. If only it could be that big again. Yeah im old now, but I swear some people just dont know the fun they are missing!!
It’s crazy how I can be nostalgic for something I was too young at the time to experience. Makes me sad seeing how paintball has changed and corporatized. Even when I started you had so many options for markers, loaders, whatever. Now it just seems like if you’re broke you get an Axe and a Z2. You got some money to blow you get a PE gun and a Spire and HK everything else. I miss the paintball that I grew up with.
Having grown up watching paintball and attending world cups since I was 4, there's definitely a noticeable difference over the years. I'd say what happened to paintball is just an example of what happened to "extreme" or action sports in general. Skateboarding, BMX, paintball, and all the others were so amazingly diverse back in the days with such unique identities, but as the bigger companies started winning out, they began taking over. Now they just don't have that same "soul" to them. I will say though that in some ways it can be good for the sport, because now people have more reliable guns and have a lower barrier to competitive entry because of things like the old invert/empire mini's and cheaper gear, but it is hard to imagine what it used to be too. Maybe one day as trends ebb and flow, paintball will make a larger comeback. At least at my local fields I've noticed some more young people (I'm still pretty young but I'm talking teenagers) forming teams and competing in SPL and such.
I started in 2002 and stopped around 2011. It was an awesome time to play paintball. HK Army was almost an underground thing. I still got my fake Gucci headband and DerDer Sandana. Just starting to get back into it.
Fucking Oneside Red! FUCK YES! i almost teared up just now. I got a flash back to the first time i went paintballing, opening the car door and hearing a speedball game start. I almost shit myself. Those days are the days id give anything to just relive. God damn. The memories. The feels. Listening to Rufio over the p.a. while everyone got down. Fuck man. Golden days.
I don't understand why the pros don't at least play uncapped semi. I understand divisionals but it legitimately only complicates the game in a way that makes it even more entertaining so why not just let the pros still shoot as fast as humanly possible?
@@SORBETVMuncapped semi on the current field layouts would make it far easier to lock up zones and stifle movement. And breakouts would be an absolute bloodbath. I say bump the teams up to 7man, increase the field size a bit, and allow semi up to 15bps.
My god I loved the golden era of paint ball. My best gun ended up being a level 10 micro mag error running at 1200 psi. I had a vl evolution and the thing ran at 1200 rpm
Just started getting back into it and I've noticed this too. Thought something was up with my barrel match, nope, the balls just suck terribly in every box. What the hell happened
Did we all really suck this bad? Man the game is so much more athletic now. Lots of great players in this video, but now, they'd be considered pretty scrubby
one thing I dont miss about these days is the heavy duty spinning after they got shot... so many of these a guy will get bunkerd and have five hits on his back, then spin and try to sneak in a trade. penelties the way they are now have really helped on that.
Look at how completely boring tournament paintball is compared to this. Ramping is a joke, 10bps is a joke, everyone shooting the same exact gun is a joke. Bring back semi and innovation and paintball wouldn't be such a dying sport.
Does paintball still exist? Not even kidding. I absolutely loved playing early 2000's, and it seems like within the last 5 years the sport has all but disappeared. No idea where to get my tank hydro'd or play casual games. My G6R lies dormant and lonely.
Ah, when the Halo was absolutely groundbreaking and the BPS wars of the 00's. 7 man shooting 12 and xball with ramping and 15bps. When men were men and sheep were nervous!
@@ashton35 it’s literally the weekend, choose one day and make it a hobby? Theres so many other hobbies that can actually take up more of your time and can be bad. One day out of the week. Doesnt hurt if you really love the sport imo
Paintball will never be like this again Th nw. Generation is too soft. 10.5 bps..seriously... yeah u save money on paint but duering these days nothing compares...

😂 the egg hopper. damn the lid on those.
always wanted an Orracle
Truth
you haven't really played paintball until you've had a loader crack its neck on a dive
i had the eggy on my Eblade Outkast, aka Nightkast. i wanted an oracle so badly lol Good times!
@@jacobm8129 fuck, that was one of my holy grails, had a Karni, thing made the best sound.
So many good memories playing in the early 2000s. It's amazing to see how the game has and hasn't evolved in 20 years.
i agree.. and electric guns ruined it. I have one I never use and I still play with either a pump, or my automag.
Pump or Magfed best way to go. I still play upto this day.

I won this dvd in a raffle in 2004 and have seen it at least 100 times!!! 🙏🏽
This video is one of the reasons I've started playing paintball over 15 years ago.
we used to have this playing on repeat every friday for open play when it came out. I miss those times. Awesome soundtrack
Bringing me back to my 2002 paintball glory days.
those were everyone's glory days XD
2002-2004 was paintball at its finest. I was rocking an 03 shocker with the egg loader
98-2002 were the golden years
dammit. right in the feels man...the good old days!
I miss these days of paintball. Shit was crazy.
DerDer.....the best coverage in paintball ever....I have so many of their dvds from back in the day.....classics.
started with an impy bounce beam now still runing a built shocker sft in 2024. the good days will always live on!!
Fucking Oneside Red! FUCK YES!
i almost teared up just now.

God damn.

Fuck man.
Golden days.
hands down the best era of paintball ever, no ramp, no cap, just balls out paintball

@@just9911 I just don’t think the current generation of pros has their trigger walking game that fast. A lot of them were bred into ramping.
The glorious days of the sport
It's in a new golden age they say !

the games called paintball but the industry refuses to make good paintballs anymore. It’s almost insulting to the players at this point.
Just started getting back into it and I've noticed this too. Thought something was up with my barrel match, nope, the balls just suck terribly in every box. What the hell happened
@@tmccann1876 GI sportz i believe
Agreed evil made awsome paintballs in my early days
Daaaaam these were the days. Life was simple. Go to skool go to football practice then hit up the boooiis n hit the speed fields dam i miss it
16:39 🤣 that freak out for getting shot
It’s ones of those hits that keep on burning
all the ramping intimidators ☺️ those were the days
Yoooooooo thank you so much for uploading this
i watched this DVD probably 50 times when i was a kid. watched with friends the night before we'd go play
Same!
Did we all really suck this bad? Man the game is so much more athletic now. Lots of great players in this video, but now, they'd be considered pretty scrubby
For sure
Have to start somewhere
Remember the bps was way faster back then east to get bunkers. One mistake your screwed
one thing I dont miss about these days is the heavy duty spinning after they got shot...
so many of these a guy will get bunkerd and have five hits on his back, then spin and try to sneak in a trade.
penelties the way they are now have really helped on that.
Nostalgia baby! Why did we not wear cleats back in the day though lol😂
The days of autocockers and intimidators
Still got my derder headband. Gosh it's been ages since I've been on the turf!
The good ole days!! Oneside Red is the band from the song at the beginning. Miss this shit and play style. 300fps, 15 BPS!!
Foreal man people got their fuckin asses blown apart
I remember downloading this trailer on limewire in 2005
That was a great DVD
This is beautiful
holyshit this brings me back to 2005, miss those days
I miss my 2k2 timmys
Man… I’ll always remember going to NPPL Huntington Beach in 2005ish every year. Such good times.
Man I wish I was old enough to play in these glory days of the sport. I didn’t start till 2012 when I was old enough.
OH MY GOSH DUDE ITS ALL OVER HIS FACE DUDE!
Bring uncapped semi back!
So rad bring back that og grit
oh shit I am excited to watch this
Back when everyome had a eggy
Only video I workout to!!! Amps me up!!! Still playing paintball! Lets go baby!

Uncapped semi needs to come back
WE BRINGING BACK THE SHORT BUS??!?
"Nicky look left! Nicky Nicky Look Left!"
"IM SHOOOTING PEEOPLLEEEEE"
ah yes, punk rock i've never heard of... it's a paintball movie :)
We need ceral killers
Wow they have the full thing on here now. I used to just have the preview on my old computer that I downloaded from limewire.

Yes, it's alive and (mostly) well. Depends on where you live.
Who is watching in 2024?
Like seeing Justice as the thumbnail
If you are going to dive with an egg you better have another one in your gear bag.
loaders flying everywhere

بسیار زیبا و عالی 😁🤩
Leaping chest slide!
Didnt a few of the xfactor guys come out of the Addicted camp?
Yup. Archie did.
So many people from the 2000s played paintball, why cant everyone get together and make this sport bigger than what it is?
Too expensive and takes time
@@ashton35 it’s literally the weekend, choose one day and make it a hobby? Theres so many other hobbies that can actually take up more of your time and can be bad. One day out of the week. Doesnt hurt if you really love the sport imo
fields are scarce, shits expensive as fuck to get into it, 50 dollars every time, 50 dollars for a case of paint, etc etc etc.@@chinodabbin2257
I have this movie in dvd lol
That’s excessive man!
7:53 Is that Dixon Yang?
Is there any paintball teams available for new people in California open at the moment ?
Always. Get out to the local field. Almost every one has a newer team starting.
chunky asian dude in the yellow complaining about that was too much shouldnt bee ballin, LMAO
When was this video made???? like the footage
I want to say the DVD was 2003. So footage from 2001-2002 I would imagine.
All footage is from 2003.
