The Paintball Extravaganza show attracts and brings together industry manufacturers, dealers and their personnel. Parts of that wealth of talent are the
people who keep the gear up and running through tech support departments
and local dealers. We asked some of paintball’s most trusted and knowledgeable technicians three questions and present the answers for you.

Nicky T, Planet Eclipse
X3: What do you enjoy most about conducting tech classes for one of the most advanced
paintball manufacturers in the world?
Nicky T: Educating people who are familiar on our
products. Educating people, showing people how
we work, and how they can work with us better to
ultimately support customers worldwide.
X3: Do you see any significant advances in
paintball design/tech in the next couple of
years? We ask this particular question because
you famously have your finger on the pulse of
international paintball technology.
Nicky T: I’m sure Mr. Wood will come up with something. I hope he does, because I still have a mortgage to pay, (laughter).
What is your advice to the novice paintball technician who is interested in working behind the scenes in the sport?
Nicky T: Experience everything. Work hard. Get involved. If you don’t ask,
you’re never going to receive. So, bug everyone until they say yes.
