Communication in Paintball

[@sh8k3nb4k3]

Yo! Thank you for this! I feel I know most of this but it’s nice to hear from a pro and then to share your videos in my teams chat room. Hopefully my team will learn from this.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Hope it helps!

[@shipleydside]

I’ve learnt in this last two years playing up the gut it’s almost better to not talk and trust your back players. I like not talking or shooting my gun till I absolutely have to so I don’t give myself away. Baiting players to think a gap is clear is crucial.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

And it’s great when your patience pays off too!

[@Forbeszy1]

Defiantly a video needed. Thank you! Now I can show our D4 5 man team.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Glad it could help!

Always love to see the MacDev gear, prime xts is my favorite shooter. Nice vid

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Thanks for the love!

Class Is in session!!!! Going back to the fundamentals of good comms cool vid G.

Thanks!

Can you make a video for what paintball equipment should we buy after using a rental tipman a few times?

[@tightropehikes]

What’s your budget?

[@wileycoyote9504]

The way I was taught, you are constantly doing at least one of three things in game: shooting, moving, and communicating. That's how you win.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Sometimes all at the same time!

[@michaelweaver9716]

That’s a common phrase in the infantry. Shoot, Move, Communicate.

[@JamesSmith-gk8sz]

Bar none one of the most important, if not the most important aspect of an effective team. You can have 5 players all rocking Luxe's and Spire IV's and Ninja SL's but if no one is letting each other know what's happening it doesn't matter in the slightest.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Exactly!

[@brendenray9240]

thanks for the awesome tip vids

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Thanks for watching!

[@macdreego]

Do you play at Florida fields often or are you always all over the place?

[@howtoplaypaintball]

So I usually play at Central Florida Paintball or Mark’em All Paintball. They’re both pretty close to me.

[@danovenmcgarry7631]

Can you make a video on how and when to move

[@howtoplaypaintball]

That could be a tough one but I can try!

Dan, remind me and w'll work on this at practice

Learned a lot, thanks man. What is “ChristKrew” on your headband mean? Just wondering if it’s related to the team or if it’s meant to draw questions?

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Nope! No team relation. Just my beliefs and foundation.

[@Ronkrein]

Always good info!

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Thanks!

[@Ronkrein]

Whats your name by the way so i can pick you out on tv!? Im just getting back into paintball after a 13 year hiatus, so things have changed a bit! Used to run an autococker set up so its nice having these new markers that are so easy to clean!

Loving the CK headband, how does one get one in australia?

[@howtoplaypaintball]

I made that one just with a sharpie. You could get vinyl pressed onto one I’m sure even out there!

Touch base on situational awareness.! Become comfortable in an uncomfortable position or situation. EHEHEH

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Yep!
