In light of our recent Eclipse PAL Loader System launch we decided to sit down and have a casual chat with Jack Wood about what, when and why we decided to create this awesome (and cheap) loader system.

Full Disclosure: This was not recorded in a special sound studio, just Al and Jack chatting with a LAV mic, so there are random bumps, creaks and bangs in the audio.

AND we decided to leave most of the chatty waffle at the beginning and end of the recording... because we like it.

Thanks.

Markie C has been involved in UK paintball for many years. As a player, as a Planet Eclipse employee and as a field owner. For the past number of years he's been the driving force behind UK Pro Team - Manchester Firm and has become one of UK paintball’s most recognisable figures in the pits.

Planet Eclipse head honcho 'Ledz' managed to sit him down for 90 minutes to discuss everything from his time playing, his thoughts on coaching, rising playing costs and why he's changed the team's outlook on European paintball in 2019.

Kick back, enjoy and don't forget to share.

Ainsley Baddeley runs the UK's CPPS series of tournament paintball events which is regarded as THE best tournament series in Europe. And deservedly so.

He also owns and manages the top professional paintball team in the UK, the Lucky 15s. Who are seen as the template for how a professional paintball team should be run.

We sat him down with Ledz to peel back the layers of one of the industries most important and nicest guys.

It's a long one, so we broke it into 3 parts.

Enjoy.

Ledz & Ainsley Baddeley - Part 1

In part 2 of the Ledz & Ainsley show they chat about Ainsley's involvement within the structure of paintball and what his plans are the future of his team, The Lucky 15s.

Enjoy.

Ledz & Ainsley Baddeley - Part 2

Lucky 15s machine, Jim McGowan, makes the mistake of volunteering to spend some time with Ledz to chat about paintball, the sport, the game, his team and his favourite subject... cheating.

Sorry... it's a loooooong one, so get comfortable.

Ledz & Jim McGowan - Lucky 15s - Pt1

Here's part 2 of the world's longest paintball chat between Ledz and the Lucky 15s' Jim McGowan. Listen to the end for a treat.

It's worth it.

Ledz & Jim McGowan - Lucky 15s - Pt2

Ledz catches one of the UK's most loved and respected figures in the sport – Mark 'Twizz' Dale – to chat about his history as a player, a coach, a world cup winner, an event organiser... basically being a legend.

After playing some tactical paintball at Scenario Big Game in Poland, Ledz grabbed his buddy and fellow SandBagger–Phil Lacey– to chat about his background as a player.

In a bar. On a rooftop. Having drinks. Good times.

Ledz & Phil Lacey - SandBaggers

Ledz grabs UK paintball legend, John 'JJ' Jones, for a drink, some food and good old fashioned chin wag about his paintball origins and why he loves paintball so much.

And of course, he talks fondly of one of the UKs best teams ever created, K2.

How High?

Ledz & John Jones - SandBaggers

Jamie Beadle. Possibly one of the most misunderstood people on the UK paintball scene. More commonly known for his fiery temperament, unpredictability on the field and unwavering passion for his team in the pits, Jamie is someone who definitely divides opinion.

He's played competitive paintball at many levels (and still does) with many success stories–featuring in two seasons of our Roster Series with San Antonio XFactor. He runs a successful paintball site, a paintball clothing brand (One4One) AND runs one of the UKs flair teams of the same name.

His story will surprise many and his energy, passion and drive should be admired and respected.

Which is why our head honcho Ledz got in touch for a little chin wag.

Enjoy.

Ledz & Jamie Beadle

Ledz catches up with his long time friend, ex-team mate and now a part of the Global Eclipse Dealer network - Stephen 'Junior' Brown.

As a UK export, Junior has worked hard to keep his feet firmly on US soil with his businesses, his family and his vision to drive paintball forwards in his area.

Take it away boys.

Ledz & Stephen 'Junior' Brown

Where do we start with this one?

Colby–and his brother Sam–have been terrorising paintball teams for decades and may possibly have been some of the youngest pro players in the game.

After countless 'years off' the boys are back in business and Colby agreed to chat with Ledz about his lively paintball career, his passion for winning and his determination to put the London Tigers back on the map as contenders.

Enjoy.

Ledz & Colby Keats

Ledz grabs a chat with who we believe to be one of UK Paintball's most influential figures based on his efforts and promotion and support of younger players through his club structure.

SAD's very own head honcho, Mark 'Blakey' Blakemore.

Ledz & Mark 'Blakey' Blakemore

From am, to pro, to professional figure working within the industry, Ash Chaplen has been a very busy boy in paintball.

So Ledz decided we should pull up a chair and have a little chat with Ash about his paintball career and his latest project, Paintball Performance, where he monitors player and team data to create some interesting stats for the UK's Elite.

Enjoy

SandBaggers Veteran, Planet Eclipse Employee and one of the UK's most diverse players; Chris Stone, aka Stoney, aka Stone Soldier, chats with Ledz about what makes him tick as a player and his paintball, MagFed and Airsoft story.

Will he manage to defend his 'pro status' jibes? Tune in and find out.

Ledz & Stoney

For those that know, Tommy Webb is a relatively young but very experienced player who probably holds the title for the most energetic and enthusiastic person on the planet. So Ledz decided to have a nice little chat with him.

Tune in to find out more about Tommy, his team the Jaguars, their 2020 merger with ONE41 and paintball in general.

Ledz & Tommy Webb

Ledz catches up with Dan Napoli, long time friend of Planet Eclipse and the man behind creating some of the greatest paintball films on the Planet... pun intended.

Part 1 of 2 is a casual chat about how we first started out making films with with Dan, what makes a great paintball documentary and our shared vision of getting paintball films into the mainstream.

Ledz & Dan Napoli - Part 1
