35 Jennifer Silverman (Pinokio Hoppers): Pinokio is very excited to introduce our newest edition, the Pinokio SPEED Hopper. The Pinokio SPEED hopper is the culmination of a couple of long years of work, prototyping, designing, redesigning and re-thinking what our hoppers could be. We took the feedback we got from players in 2012 and 2013 from the F1 Hopper prototypes, and of course from our classic Pinokio hopper, redesigned the shells inside and out, the board, the motor and even made it smaller and lighter to bring you the Pinokio SPEED. We are very excited about it hitting the market and so far have had great feedback on it. This was a long road for such a small company and we thank those that stood by us, patiently waiting for us to get our new product out. Now we’re back and we truly see the SPEED, and some other future projects, as a resurrection or re-birth of our company and brand. Adam Gardner (GOG): The introduction of the eNMEy is what we are most proud of. The prefect starter paintball marker, eNMEy shoots and feels like a high end electro. Its simple, lightweight design makes it extremely reliable and easy to use. It even comes with a limited lifetime warranty but retails for under $150. Richmond Italia (GI Sportz): First and foremost the purchase of Tippmann with the support of Denny Tippmann was the single best accomplishment of 2013. Not to be forgotten was the launch of the pulse RDR. A loader with radar built into it is no small undertaking. I’m also very proud of our teams this year. Not only did GI teams win most first places in both PSP and Millennium, we also had the bonus of Impact winning the Asia World Cup. They were the only team to have GI paint at the event and they took first. That says a lot. WWW.PAINTBALLX3.COM
