Thanks to WDP, there is a new video of Ryan from Dynasty

shooting the Speed at the Camp masters in Paris.

The Video can be found at the following link.....................

thats a cool video... i'm glad the Speed is so nice considering i don't own one yet... yay

[batmantis]

cool video. i want one. whaaaaaaa lol

[bushwhakersplinter]

anybody want to donate one to me? no oh well. it was worth a try. i guess i will have to stick to my led until they start selling used for oh say 750ish. i can dream right?

[wdp child]

Hay isnt ithaca the setting of fredy got fingered?(location on batmantis' thingy)

[Tempest261]

Further proof the the guys on Dynasty are morons.

First Rodney saying that the lower pressure will give you flatter shots, now Greenspan saying that the bolt makes the gun more accurate. Terrific.

[flake40772]

Tempest, What team are you on? Because I seriously doubt you personally have ever played against let alone beat Dynasty. Don't hate on them. I know I can't play nearly as well as them but I'm not about to slam them for it.

[Tempest261]

Did I ever said that you had to have a PhD to play paintball? No. I never said they were bad at paintball. They're the best in the world.


They're just realllllly stupid. ;)

[Boudy]

Only thing wrong with the video is the british guy laughing at everything ryan says! other then that it's a good video.

[hybridd77]

i thoght he said the bolt made it faster, which a light all delrin bolt will do

Well bolts can affect consistency and that affects "vertical" accuracy. So in a way he's right. I'll shut up now.

[SkeL]

:dito: It's too bad he doesn't shoot that fast. Ron is faster :evilgrin:

[Tempest261]

I think he was using a stock speed without sensi on- by default the non-sensi ROF is capped pretty low... that or he just really can't shoot fast.

But anyways, I can shoot a hell of a lot faster ;) http://cyberbuzz.gatech.edu/paintball/mikespeed.avi

[whoop]

ya....greenspan should stuttteerr some some more more dont dont you think ?

[obsessed w/the sport]

he was very nervious(SP?), i think. nice gun, fast, REEALY FAST. of course, i an not around automatic markers alot, so it seemed fast.

[IanR]

Of course they are gonna say stupid things like it shoots flatter or the bolt makes it more accurate because thats what hype is all about. Of course they know thats not true. Stupid kids and noobs buy into hype like "cockers shoot farther" and other assorted crap like that. Hype is everything in paintball.

[oakleyswitch]

was it my audio.. or did it kind of sound like a cocker? it sounded like metal clinging? or was it what he was shooting at

[Tempest261]

That's the "windchime" effect you get from poor encoding bitrates. Don't worry about it- it's the file.

[Jedrith]

Tempest, the dynasty guy doesn't even wear a mask. How dumb.

[SkeL]

It's a good thing he's setting a great example for people.

[C.Carles-AOG]

There is way too much player hating going on.

So he's not the best interview subject in the world. He's not the fastest shooter, he didn't put his mask down...the gun still 0wns. That's my own opinion and not hype.
Regardless of anything any and all of us (myself included), would love to play on and for Dynasty. Heck I'd even take a scrimmage against them.

[SkeL]

Bottom line is, an experienced player like that should abide by the most basic safety rules. How would that look if one bounced back and caught him in the eye? Not very good.... And yes, I'd like to play for Dynasty too.

[paintballguy990]

man whats with all the hating of ryan greenspan? he seems like the coolest dude to hang out with and he is the best player in the world in a sence, would you studder if you were on tape in front of millions of consumers and trying to impress your sponsor?

[Kriptic]

Greenspan is my main doodle stain. all you haters are just jealous that he a.) is on a team that wins on a constant basis or b.) gets free Speeds and whatnot from WDP... boo hoo suck it up and watch him play... buy some traumahead vides and you'll see what i mean... he's almost always the last one left for the flag hangs and gets tons of kills every game... too bad he's kinda under ollie's shadow...

[TeTra PuNk0120]

Uhhh that video wasn't very good....if wdp is going to promote a product the least they can do is make the picture clear. No offence but that video didn't impress me. The video from the impulse WAS board was more impressive and WAS doesn't even compare to wdp. The angel speed looks impressive on its own but if wdp is gunna make a effort to promote it with a video, cmon at least make it look Half As@ and not jus something they made in 5 minutes.

[Tempest261]

but then you get people who complain that the file is too large and it takes too long to download (I had a TON of people complain to me about mine). My video was 40 megs- but my whole idea was that there's no point to releasing a video like that unless you can actually see the paintballs.

[bunkerd50]

well not to be rude or anything but he sounded like he just took some "speed" himself.... lol sounded pretty cracked out :) have to get me some... "dynastey CRANK"
new product.. i can see it now.. lol

[GangstaFoLiFeNIGGA]

Greenspan is my cousin dawg

[SkeL]

No, he's my dad.

[Ghost Rider70]

Tempest, first off your THANKS for your video, it was clear and it didn't take long to DL. So with that said, you might want to pipe down about guys from Dynasty being morons. I know, I know it doesn't take a PH D to play paintball but calling Greenspan a moron is a little harsh. That dude RIPS at paintball and a bolt can effect consistancy and consistancy DOES effect ACCURACY. If the gun was not consistant then the grouping would not be as tight as the fluxuations would cause balls to hit higher and lower thus LESS accurate. We could argue all day long but it wouldn't do either of us any good. And you forgetting to turn on your POS rickochet (im not flaming you, im flaming your loader) with low batteries didn't look to 'smart'. But nobody's calling you a moron for it are they? Also, way to turn the sensi off with a POS hopper and chop on a video thats supposed to be showing off a WDP product. I realize you did this on purpose but... why? Also why even do the video with that hopper, now a demonstration with a HALO B would have been perfect because we can see the 2 ball detents in action and see if the Halo and the Angel work better together then LCD's and Halo's. Tempest, get to it. (again, thanks for the vid, it did show the SPEED of a SPEED)

[Tempest261]

yeah yeah- well again, I never said he was bad at paintball. I'm just sick and tired of hype in this industry that is duping the kids who don't know any better.

Case in point- Rodney Squires (another Dynasty player) who stated that the lower pressures will get you "longer, flatter shots, just like a matrix!" Greenspan's comment about the bolt was likely him just trying to make the WDP employee filming him happy. But hell- Rodney just made himself look like a dip**** in his video.

As for my hopper choice- the Ricochet can kick a revvy's ass any day as long as it has a fresh battery. That being said, I actually have an EvoII that I actually pulled that battery out from. Figured the Ricochet can run better on one low battery than a EvoII on two. Had to make a video right then since nobody (not even Rodney or Ryan on Dynasty) seems to know how to shoot this beast. And they're using damn y-boarded Evo II's.

What you should really be impressed by is how well Sensi works in squeezing every little bit of ROF out of that limping hopper. And yes, I did get new batteries for my EvoII but haven't had a chance to film a new video. I really would like to try a HaloB but have none laying around. I'll probably find one with someone at the field this weekend and give it a shot.

Also, way to turn the sensi off with a POS hopper and chop on a video thats supposed to be showing off a WDP product.

And another thing- I wasn't SHOWING IT OFF. If anything I was reviewing it. I'm not going to tell people that this gun can do things that it can't really do in reality. That's just moronic (there's that word again). The gun doesn't pinch balls. At least not without a LP volumizer. Big deal. My main reason for turning sensi off is to show how essential it is on this gun and what a big difference it makes. I knew damn well I was gonna chop. That wasn't the point though.

[Lone Wolf2]

That was a cool vid just wish it was longer.

[IMPerfection]

lol yeah tempest awesome video and nice and long, however props to ryan for being a kickass player even if he did have to bull**** some in the video because WDP is sponsoring him. I would too for all that free stuff.

[liquidblue19]

i just bought one the other day, very interested to see just how fast it really is

[GangstaFoLiFeNIGGA]

Ohh its fast alright
My gun topped so far at 21bps at 298fps
It is a magical gun

[Tempest261]

lets see greenspan hit this ;)

[Hepker]

dear lord mike. nice video i'll try to put one up when i get my speed in a week or so. anyway what kinda reg was taht it didnt look like the stock one but i couldt really tell in the 2second turn around.

[Tempest261]

it's a sidewinder short version. The mini reg couldn't handle my HP crossfire. I plan on going back to the mini reg as soon as I get my new maxflo.

[Hepker]

thats cool!

[GangstaFoLiFeNIGGA]

Greenspan Compared to mike, HHHHHAHAHHAHAHAHA

Mike is hella faster

[zombie93]

man I have to get me one of those badboys

[The Buddhist]

Man I can't wait to get one!!

[smartLCD]

yea, my boss shoots a speed, he says it kicks a$$!! im dying to get my angel.... im gonna go to one of his team practices and play, only if it doesnt rain, b/c in miami, fl it rains every other hour in summer!

[moesizlack]

I personally liked to see a video where you could easily see the paint. Good video Tempest.

[Jedrith]

Yeah get some pink paint, and you guys were right, I was bashing greenspan, but I never said he couldn't play. He'd royally whoop my ass everyday of the week if I were to play him anyway.

if they are morons, how are they the best team?

[Tempest261]

Simple. It doesn't take a whole lot of brains to play paintball.

[Jedrith]

Thats why it can appeal to everyone.

[bigsniper]

yea mike you did shoot alot faster than ryan... what pro team did you say you played for??? just wondering what tourneys you have won on the international level. ya know I do alot of advertising for the people over at JT and i noticed that I have never heard of you. lets see if we can get a one on one going with you and ryan and see if you shooting all that paint will help or get you bunkered while your reloading.

[Tempest261]

whoa whoa there! Don't get your panties in a bind. Again, read what I have said earlier. I completely admit that Ryan can kick my ass in paintball. I probably wouldn't stand a chance. I have NEVER said anything different from that. Now, if paintball was all about ROF, yeah Ryan would be in trouble. Thankfully it's not, because it would be a really boring game at that point. This is probably why he's not a back player.

It's just funny how WDP chooses the slowest people to advertise their new "speedy" gun. Since you're such a big advertising expert, you should understand my point.

[C.Carles-AOG]

Perhaps that is a good method of advertising. It shows that a slow shooter can rip on it, the gun is EASY to shoot. That came across quite well.

[Solinari]

Ha ha aha ha in the video ryan is jacking off the barrel like a jack off my dog.

You touch your dog's red rocket? Please, spare us the insanity. Let this thread die.

[Solinari]

ok

[smartLCD]

mhmm...

[pestv1111]

Those are the common grammar skills for someone who works in advertising.

You could pass off as a 15 year old.

[smartLCD]

well 18 is close enough...thxs for trying.... i didnt think anyone really cared about grammar online.... but if u do... ok... :)

[SkeL]

You know me..... I'm the grammer nazi.

[smartLCD]

!!! im no illegal ImIrante! y the naziii!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhh !!!!!!!!!! ... oh back to clip.. yea ..NOOb...??!!! j.k
