12 very disturbing paintball teams

Want to see a glass staircase more impressive than those in Apple stores? Despite the fact that Apple has a patent on the glass staircase to some of its stores, glass staircases are not really all that innovative. The staircase of glass art Square D Nimes is more adventurous and was designed 20 years ago, and Ove Arup have designed a glass staircase with no purely steel fasteners. All these car commercials are from 1973, the last time the economy Tanked because of oil.The embargo began in late 1973, when the family sedan is less than 10mpg, were the size of a boat and often cooked around a suspension that felt as if you were at sea While Detroit manufacturers have been pitching speed, power or comfort, a relatively obscure Japanese import, already sold based on fuel economy. Can you find the intruder? To mark the 800th anniversary of the famous London Bridge, the Royal Institute of British Architects has launched a competition to design a bridge lived.The current London Bridge is not the Victorian Gothic Tower Bridge, like many people believe, but a rather dull stone. Its predecessor was uninteresting and was also bought by mistake and put in the Arizona desert. But the original London Bridge was a cultural icon, a covered bridge in buildings.Inspired by competition, we've compiled a list of the most interesting bridges inhabited, from individual house designs surreal Zaha Hadid bridge deck elegant Expo Zaragoza. Some people take very seriously, paintball, and the border between harmless fun, irony and unintended plain creepy is unclear.Here teams of paintball-like militias pure and simple, and some are....

Cali Rally: Volcom Checkpoint Challenge

No one knew what to expect from the Volcom Mystery Challenge. There were rumors of bull riding floating around, some thoughts of rodeo type activities, and even a few murmurs of teams expecting mud-wresting—so, when the teams pulled up to a paintball course on an Army Reserve base outside of San Luis Obispo, they were relieved and psyched, until they found out the one stipulation that made this a true Cali Rally Checkpoint Challenge: The teams would be engaged in paintball warfare, but the catch was, they weren’t allowed to wear shirts. Hence the name; The Volcom Central California Shirtless Paintball Challenge at Gladiator Paintball Park.

When we came up with the shirtless concept we and Volcom guys thought the teams would whinge and moan, but like true warriors, they ripped their shirts off and said “Lets do this!” Paintball!

The first round was Lost vs. Reef, and the Reef boys made mincemeat out of the young …Lost team. Their tactic of rushing to the front lines and shooting anything that moved worked to a T. In fact, the only Reef who guy who got shot was their team photog, Chris Straley who became victim of a sniper shot from TransWorld’s Justin Cote because he was lagging behind. Yep, if you cowered like a wuss you got capped by sniper fire. Straley would not make the mistake again.

Second round was Billabong vs. Analog, and with Hoyer and Bones teamed up like skinny and psycho Navy Seals to take ‘Bong out, who may have got the last laugh by stealing a bunch of Analog’s gear while they were playing the final game.

In the final battle, Reef and Analog split the first two games, then in the last game, the rag tag Army of Chris Abad, Sean Moody, Paul Fisher, Nick Rozsa, and Straley channeled their inner solider and “killed” team Analog for 1000 points and the teams second checkpoint win.

After the war, Nick Rozsa and our new favorite pshychopath, Josh Hoyer, did an extra duel for 250 bonus points. Just like in the Old West, they shuffled twenty paces, turned and shot—both direct chest hits! It was one of the craziest things we’ve ever seen.
