| Review: |
Don't do it. This place was pretty bad. I was expecting to find a good place cause I had heard a lot of stuff about it. When I played there though, I found differently. Here's why:
Woodsball field: Horrid. Thrown together, no bunkers, just simple woods on the side of a hill. I hated this field.
Speedball: Not bad. Permement setup so no variety. Still a fun course but thats the only fun one.
Other things: The refs didn't let the players choose the games. They chose the games instead. Not nice. Also, my brother's mask fogged up badly so he asked for a rental. Lan charged him 3 bucks for this??!! I know, hes gotta make money but at Paradise he would have gotten it for free. That just made me mad. Hardly anyone plays here so unless you like doing a lot of 2 vs 2, go elsewhere. Bring your own paint is nice but the extra fee is so large ($10) it negates any savings you could have. Overall: Go to Paradise. Nicer ppl, play more games, better fields.
Just say no to Thunder.

I'll preface this by saying I have played paintball since 1997 and used to ref (5 yeasrs in Louisiana). I haven't played many fields -- 4 in Louisiana, Texas, and Washington.
1. Thunder has a good variety of play. They have woods, speedball, and airball.
2. There's a variety of skill. On weekends there's newb's and seasoned players. Don't be afraid of getting whomped, you may do some whomping yourself. :]
3. Competitive prices. Thunder's prices compete with any other field in the nation.
4. Good staff. They'll take care of you.
I didn't know what to expect in WA for paintball after moving here, but Thunder definitely impressed me and I highly recommend it as a player and ex-ref.| Last edited on Wednesday, February 27th, 2008 at 10:23 pm PST |

| Review: |
This place is the BOMB! it has the best prices on paint and other things. They also sell some guns for a good deal. The Staff is really nice, and this place is better then any other. The nice thing is that when you play attack and defend, there is a tower for the people defending, and its REALLY fun trying to get them. They have an undercover place for when its raining, and the do lunch so you don't have to leave and get food. Every time i go there, they always help me get better, and whenever i come back form it, im always better then when i went there. |

I have played at thunder a few times now and will have to say it is not that great of a field. First of all the fields are pretty lame. I played here once about 6 months ago and the field setups are still the same as they were then. The prices are not too bad except i saw the owner try to rip some kid off. The day i came out here there were only 4 players so it ended up being pretty lame. I would suggest going to Paradise paintball or Tacoma paintball. There will be lots more people and you wont get ripped off. |

My 10 year old son and I are new to paintball. After spending alot of money at Northwest Paintball park in Silverdale for an afternoon, I almost quit the sport because I didn't want to pay thoes kind of prices all of the time.
We tried Thunder paintball in Seabeck. My wallet was not nearly as drained as it was at northwest. The courses were great fun. The staff were friendly and helpful.
Here is a note of thanks to the other players. You made the experience for my son very positive and fun. They took much of their own time to show my son around, advise him and guide him through his first several games. Thank you.
I don't have enough experience with other fields to accurately rate the field itself, so my rating is for the people and the prices at Thunder.

| Review: |
I say this for a few reasons. Thunder is organized, friendly, and fun they really know what they are doing. I took a group of 14 guys’ ages 13-45 to thunder for an all-day splat fest and there was not a negative comment said about the park or the staff. Everybody had a good time. There was never any time when there was nothing to do they kept the games rolling at a cyclic rate. They gave good advice and never talked down on those who were paintballing for the first time. If you paintball in the Northwest. Make the drive to Seabeck, WA for your paint ball fulfillment! |

| Review: |
THunder paintrball is AWESOME. Their speed ball courses rock and their prices are cheap. PLus, unlike northwest its not FPO (field paint only) so you don't get ripped off every time you paintball and you can save some money. The staff is really nice and if your gun stops working they let you use one of theirs free. The reffing is really good and unlike northwest if you get shot in the beginning your out, the refs don't let you come back in. The woods course could be a little bigger, but other than that this place rocks.
I give it a 9 and about the not checking the chrono, they do and since the people who go their are cool, they dont over chrono anyways| Last edited on Monday, February 7th, 2005 at 5:08 pm PST |

Pros:
Great Fields
Great Refs
Cost to play
Great crowd to play with
Cons:
No one checking people if they crono
This is the best park in the area. Everyone is friendly and helpful. From the first day I played here, I was taken care of. Didn't have a hopper and Lan helped me out with one. Sorry, but the only thing I seen was no one was watching the crono. Other than that is field is hands down the best in the area |

| Review: |
thunder is so cool. Lan, the owner was awesome, hes so nice. When someone mentioned he should up his prices because "they were so low" he siad no he wants to benefit the players not his self. That's awesome. You dont get that service from northwest. And the guy who said you would definatley come back a better player by the end of the day was right. I was doing a lot better at snap shooting and just playing over all. the only down is that they dont have enough bunkers, its kinda a long run from bunker to bunker in field 2. Other than that it was awesome. | Last edited on Saturday, September 4th, 2004 at 6:42 pm PST |

| Review: |
this place is da bomb diggity, its got bomb staff with bomb fields and bomb cars (especially the red truck with plates titles "p8ntbllplyr" or something like that) its got fun players and a lot of jerseys on players so they must be good (excepts the guy with the blue jersey!) i like the hotdogs with chilli there and there is always other things to do when you are not playing like chatting with other players who are always very friendly. The games themselves are fun with lots of action especially on field #2. Thunder is a sweet place to go play paintball and i know ill come back and play as often as i can. |
