Ball Wall

[ds613]

Since a lot of people don't know what a ball wall field is, here's a picture. (Most of the bunkers are ball wall. The big metal thing isn't, but the plastic things are: cubes, red and black stand-ups, and yellow cylinders.)

It's a type of speedball field called ball wall. It's sold by paintball inc. ( www.paintballinc.com ).

Is there supposed to be something special about it???Just looks like a way to break your leg sliding into a bunker.

Looks pretty sweet to me, Id play there but some of the bunkers look kidna small but more the challenge. Where is that?

How convinient being so close to paintball inc.:)

Their website is www.alamopaintball.com

The bunkers are kinda small. The red and black ones and the cubes are big enough though. I still prefer sup'air and hyperball, but ball wall is really fun.

The big gray thing all the way on the left.

The ball wall bunkers are the red and black stand-ups, the yellow cylinders, ans the blue cubes.

They could at least put a little padding on the things. :P

Actually, it is cheaper, and that's the whole attraction. Only downside is that it sucks

Its a good concept, just wasnt produced correctly.

First, they need to be bigger. And they need more shapes.

The red/black bunkers are two pieces, depending on how you set them up they can be a stand up, kneel or lay down. You can make snakes out of a row of the black bunkers, as well as a high snake with the red.

I like the idea, it just needs to be refined.

And about hurting yourself- the things are plastic, so is hyperball. How often do you get hurt on a hyperball field? I run/jump/slide/dive all over the place, the worst I've been hurt is diving on a rock that was in the snake (stupid place for a big rock to be! it scratched up my gun too, damnit.)

there's an atricle on Ball Wall in a past issue of APG. The main attraction is that they are easy to set up. You fill them up with sand or water so they don't tip and then you empty them to move them around. I like them but I think they need bigger bunkers, snakes, and a center piece plus some cool looking stuff.
