Here we tell you a little about ourselves, from
our intro to Paintball to the present
 | Name: Stefan
Age:14 |
I started playing paintball in 2001 at winter time. The
first gun I had was a blue blade. Then I could buy 200 paintballs and
split it with my bro and it would last us about 2 weeks. Over the next few
year I showed some of my friends paintball and they loved it. Now I
need 1000 just to last a day of playing. I hope I can play for many more
years. And I hope Will can ref some more so I can shoot him
more.
Other Hobbies:
Marching Band (Trombone), and Model Rockets. I do those hobbies with most
of the same people I play paintball with.

Hobbies other than paintball: Sports, computer.
I got into paintball at first from hearing about it in Florida and also Brent
and Stefan buying me a green Blade for my birthday in February 2002. Back then
I could buy 200 brass eagle paintballs (junkiest of them all) and never have
any break or chop in my gun. I could also go a whole week with 5 12 gram
co2s and 200 paintballs. now I need to buy about 1000 for 2 days of
paintball and I frequently have to refill my co2. I enjoy playing
paintball with Stefan Brent and all those other guys so much that it has kept
me spending money and coming back to play for about a year now. I hope to play
paintball into old age and also hope to see Will as referee so Stefan can
shoot him some more. :)

I started playing like the rest of them, on a crappy pump Blade (borrowed).
From the start I ran through ammo and CO2 rapidly, constantly changing
out the spent cartridges for new ones. after a few times out to the field I
decided it was time to upgrade. I went out and bought a slightly used Stingray
and entered a whole new level of action. Since my original purchase, the rest
have followed suit and upgraded to semiautos. Remember that, I started it all.
Yeah, that's right, me. Now we run through Gas and Paintballs at such a rapid
rate that we have to wait until we get cash to play again. Life is such. Oh
well. I get money faster than the rest somehow, and I'm biding the time until
we play again. I used to buy the crappiest paint imaginable, but when every
3rd shot broke, I knew change was in order. From that day I've been using
Diablo Blazes, and only had 2 break the whole time.... I'm happy.
Other hobbies:
I also am a Marching band nerd of the trumpet variety, am the lead of my
section in class, and waste hours practicing. Call me the music man, or
Ishmail if you've read that book. Anyway, I spend my free time practicing
Trumpet, reading, doing endless web page editing, (whaddaya know, that's what
I'm doing now) etc.
