| Review: |
The store is very clean, and well organized. The staff in the main store are friendly, and good at their jobs.
The refs here are better than the ones I encountered at Ultimate and Wildfire. On top of safety, and overall very fair.
Atmosphere wise, there aren't a bunch of prepubescent cocky kids running around all over the place. It's very chill and social...(as opposed to Ultimate, where when I took my youthgroup, people were calling them names for not playing with them since we had a private group)
The players are a good mix, with many new players, and depending on the day, experienced players as well.
The games are sometimes few and far between, due to the number of experienced players available, and some of the new players not wanting to mix with experienced players. Also adding to this fact are the City games, which are not my cup of tea. Although City games can be fun, I do not like them that much, and on some days, there are way too many of them back to back.
There is only one airball field up, and the status of the field is very sad. A couple of the bunkers deflate very quickly, and are not filled up before some games...leaving a team without a back bunker sometimes. Also, I noticed some of the bunkers are very very small. I've played on much larger bunkers before. Mainly, I avoid the airball if there are any deflated bunkers.
The spools are great, and at this point, my bread and butter. They are decently arranged, and there are two spool fields. (my last trip however, i noticed one was missing a back right, which was not identical to the opposite side...offering an advantage to one team)
I really wish they would fix the Airball field,
Overall, Classic is my current main field, and I still have lots of fun when I go. Their greatest strength is the atmosphere, which is always friendly. A great plus is the sheltered picnic tables for this summer heat. The refs here are great and approachable, (the older ones mainly).
I give the field an 8 because the airball is sad sad sad....and thats the most important thing in terms of fields, and the sport of paintball.
Oh yeah, front desk lady is super nice.
EDIT:
Went back this last weekend, and the airball field was actually very good. Although a couple bunkers were deflating over time, if you asked, the refs would pump them up.
Had some awesome games.
I'm raising the score from an 8 to a 9.| Last edited on Monday, July 30th, 2007 at 8:10 pm PST |
