Unique Anti-Chop Technology Prevents Paintball Breakage

BUFFALO GROVE, IL - FEBRUARY 9, 2006 - Tippmann Sports, the world-leading manufacturer of paintball markers and related accessories, has launched the next generation of Anti-Chop Technology, which virtually eliminates paintball breakage and jamming. Unlike many existing Anti-Chop mechanisms, which are essentially spring-loaded bolts, Tippmann's Anti-Chop Technology is a complete new system consisting of a rear bolt, front bolt and linkage arm with movements that are dictated by the location of a paintball in the chamber prior to firing.

If a paintball is fed correctly, the system's front bolt and rear bolt travel together - connected by the linkage arm - to fire the ball. However, if a ball is lodged inside the chamber incorrectly, the front bolt will stop moving forward as soon as it makes the slightest contact with the lodged ball. The rear bolt continues moving forward, but is momentarily disconnected from the linkage arm until it hits the marker's air valve. Upon reaching the air valve, the rear bolt is quickly forced back as it reconnects to the linkage arm, which pulls the front bolt back into firing position. While the two bolts are traveling back together, the lodged ball falls into position and the marker then cycles itself to discharge the ball at normal velocity.

"Our new Anti-Chop Technology is the most sophisticated system of its kind, but to players, it boils down to this - less broken balls, less jamming and an easier, more productive day playing paintball," said Denny Tippmann, Jr., Senior Vice President of Research and Development for Tippmann Sports. "Plus, because of the way our system was designed, issues such as loss of velocity and blowback that can be experienced with other Anti-Chop systems will not occur with the Tippmann Anti-Chop Technology."

Shot velocity is maintained with Tippmann's new system because its cycle speed never changes, unlike with spring-loaded Anti-Chop bolts that stall slightly when encountering a lodged ball. In addition, "blowback," a sudden release of trapped air into the hopper that often breaks paintballs and creates a big mess, is also eliminated because Tippmann's Anti-Chop Technology maintains consistent airflow in the marker whether there is a blockage or not.

Tippmann Sports will be introducing its new Anti-Chop Technology (A.C.T.) on an enhanced 98 Custom marker. The 98 Custom with A.C.T. will also incorporate several other upgrades including a new receiver that accepts electronics and a more durable finish. The new marker is expected to be available in March and will carry an MSRP of $169.

"The 98 Custom is one of the most popular paintball markers of all time and continues to be a very solid performer for us," Tippmann added. "So we wanted to maintain the key components in this marker that so many players have grown accustomed to, while introducing some new features to improve upon this tried-and-true classic. We anticipate stong response to the 98 Custom with A.C.T."

For additional details about Tippmann's new Anti-Chop Technology or the company's soon to be released 98 Custom with A.C.T., please call 1-800-533-4831. More specific information about the company and its products can also be obtained online at Tippmann's newly redesigned website, www.tippmann.com.

Proudly celebrating its 20th Anniversary in 2006, Tippmann Sports is dedicated to quality manufacturing and the pursuit of cutting edge technology and design. The company serves the growing paintball and Airsoft industries from its corporate headquarters in Fort Wayne, IN. Tippmann Sports' complete line of paintball markers and related accessories can be found at paintball stores and fields as well as mass retail and sporting goods outlets throughout the world.

DraXxuS™ and VForce™ Teams Dominate the PSP Texas Open!

The Paintball Sports Promotions "Texas Open" was dominated by Teams shooting DraXxuS Paintballs and VForce Vision masks, as the Philadelphia Americans and Baltimore Trauma, the only two teams ever to win NXL world titles, placed first and second at the first NXL event of 2006. The reigning NXL President's Cup champions, Baltimore Trauma, took second to an extremely impressive Philadelphia Americans team, back in top form after winning back-to-back NXL President's Cup titles in 2003 and 2004.

On their way to an impressive victory in cold, icy conditions in Round Rock Texas, the Americans played some of their best Paintball ever, convincingly defeating both the infamous Russian Legion and legendary Dynasty teams in the same day. In addition to their $40,000 paycheck, the Philadelphia Americans earned the respect and admiration of the world by knocking off the best Teams that Paintball could throw at them in weather that tested the entire league. In temperatures that failed to rise above the thirties both Saturday and Sunday, with icy rain falling intermittently, it was DraXxuS Inferno paintballs that proved capable of handling the miserable environment, leaving barrels clean and marking well for both DraXxuS factory Teams, and Teams sponsored by other brands who chose to purchase Inferno when their regular brands failed.

With games played both during icy daytime conditions and into the frigid nights under lights, the top Teams in Texas required a clear vision for victory, provided by VForce Profiler and Profiler SE goggle systems. Worn by three of the top four Teams at the Texas open, including the first and second place teams, VForce goggles clearly proved the best able to handle even the most extreme conditions.

In addition to the Americans and Trauma, DraXxuS Teams who performed well at the Texas Open included XSV, who fought to a fourth place finish, an impressive Miami Raiders Team who made that franchise a feared one for the first time in years, and Detroit Strange. One of the original NXL franchises, New York Xtreme, joined the DraXxuS family just in time for Texas and proved they deserve respect from even the best Teams. Ron Kilbourne's venerable Bushwackers Team, after making the switch to VForce masks and DraXxuS paintballs, played hard in division one competition, while Gridlock Teams demanded respect in divisions one, two and three. Tippmann Effect looked impressive in division two.

The PSP National XBall League will travel to Las Vegas for their second 2006 event. For more information on the PSP, visit www.PSPevents.com. To learn more about DraXxuS paintballs, including the choices of the professionals, Hellfire and Inferno, visit www.DraXxuS.com. VForce Vision is online at www.VForcePaintball.com. The entire Procaps family, including DraXxuS and VForce, congratulate the Philadelphia Americans, Baltimore Trauma, XSV and the rest of the Teams for their amazing performances in Texas.

PMI discontinues distribution relationship with Tippmann

Des Plaines, IL. (February 17th, 2006) - Pursuit Marketing Inc. (PMI), the pioneers of the Sport of Paintball since its inception in 1982, announced today that it has not renewed its distribution agreement with Tippmann Sports, LLC of Fort Wayne, IN. The current agreement expires March 8th, 2006 however PMI will have sufficient inventory of Tippmann product to sell through the spring season.

Jeff Perlmutter, President of PMI expressed "The primary reason PMI has made a conscious decision to wind down their value added marketing and distribution efforts for Tippmann products was based upon the fact that, without continued growth in demand for paintball products that has existed over the past 24 years, there needs to be increased new product innovation while delivering better value to consumers and better margins for retailers. This criteria has not been met for PMI and its customers with Tippmann products."

PMI is the largest "wholesale only" manufacturer and distributor with more than 40 top brands of paintball products including RPS, Pure Energy, Evil, Extreme Rage, Piranha, Marbalizer, SportShot, Halo, BT Designs, and most recently PCS Tactical Gear. PMI's product offerings encompass all categories utilized for the Sport of Paintball, which includes markers, paintballs, goggle systems, apparel, air and gas systems.

PMI has seven strategically located distribution facilities across North America as well as one in England to support the expanding European market. With PMI's unmatched distribution network they are able to provide the widest selection of in stock products for all paintball retailers, commercial gamefields, mass market and sporting goods retailers throughout the world.

PMI has and will continue to invest significant resources in order to deliver the latest technology and product development advancements. One such PMI product line that showcases the result of their tireless R & D effort is the Pursuit Combat Systems (PCS) US*5 semi-automatic marker with patent pending Advanced Electronic Clip (AEC). This PCS marker is modeled after the world famous H&K MP5 machine gun with select fire trigger group. With the strong consumer interest in military styled markers for scenario games as well as backyard plinking PMI's PCS line of products addresses this market segment with the US*5, the first of a number of highly durable and reliable military styled paintball markers that incorporate innovative unique technology and still offer great value to consumers while offering attractive margins to paintball retailers who have been faced with significant challenges in 2005. PMI plans to release a full line of accessories for the new US*5 including a variety of tactical stocks, various barrel kits, accessory rail kits and foregrips, all due to be in stock by spring.

For more information regarding PMI or this notice please contact: Michael Lukas at Pursuit Marketing Inc. 800-334-0502 ext 547 or via e-mail at mlukas@pminetwork.com or by visiting the company's website, www.buypmi.com

NCPA To Host Collegiate Paintball Finals at
Dallas' Xdrenalin Zone Paintball.

This April, the National Collegiate Paintball Association and hundreds of student athletes will be headed to Dallas Texas to participate in the 5th annual Collegiate Paintball League National Finals.

On April 7th, 2006 students and coaches from across the nation will descend on the Xdrenalin Zone Paintball Field located in Grapevine Texas, just and compete for their Division's respective National Title. For the past two years the NCPA has hosted Nationals on location at Disney's Wide World of Sports in Orlando Florida and in conjunction with PSP's April event. Hosting a large event separate from the support of a major league has proven to be a great step forward for the NCPA. As the League has grown by leaps and bounds over the past five years, there has been a constant need to find not only large, high profile venues for events, but venues that are accessible to teams that are sometimes separated by thousands of miles. Xdrenalin Zone on the shores of Lake Grapevine located in the Dallas Metro area and a mere five minute drive from the Dallas/Ft. Worth International airport has already proven to be an excellent choice.
X-Box and College Sports Television Network (CSTV) are on board for another year and will film Class A finals to be aired on network programming over the summer.
Prelims will commence on Friday April 7th, for Division 1 - Class A (Xball Style) and will continue through Saturday April 8th. Division 2 - Class AA (5Man) play will begin on Saturday and finals for both divisions will be held all day Sunday. For more information please go to www.college-paintball.com and www.xdrenalinzone.com

Medford, NJ -- Redz International, the leader in supplying high-quality paintball products ergonomically designed specifically for the sport, has renewed their sponsorship of the MILLENNIUM SERIES, the largest and most successful paintball league in Europe. REDZ continues to demonstrate its unwavering support of world-class paintball by sponsoring the MILLENNIUM SERIES for a fourth year, and shows its support for the European Paintball scene which keeps on growing at an amazing pace.

I've also had the pleasure of winning the Copenhagen, Denmark tournament with Ground Zero in 2001. I can't stress enough how we need to promote tournament paintball as a world-wide sport. In Europe, I've experienced the dedication of the promoters, passion of the players, and the positive energy from the spectators. These are all the aspects that are needed for a successful series. With Redz working with our European-based distributor, Paint-Xtreme, our sponsorship of the Millennium Series will allow us to successfully promote our products throughout Europe even more."
Lars Herzig of Redz Europe added: "We are very proud that we are one of the oldest sponsors of the Millennium Series.
