We went to Challenge Park's 3-man Tournament on February 25th, 2001.We were supposed to play on some of the tournament fields (they are shown below) and a really nice sup air field but, the wheather didn't like us very much that day so we ended up playing in a sloppy mess. Not many people like to play in a tournament in 30mph winds and some of the muddiest fields I've ever played in, but none the less we had an awesome time and took some great photo's!

This is the Diablo Bus, they used this to give people a lift to the playing fields! Now This is why paintball kicks Ass!
Here's a picture of Andy in the center, and Jeremy in the center right. Also an added bonus a Angel LCD!




                             


These are pictures of Challenge Park's most famous of all fields, The Village! This is a site to see, this village is awsome as you see this village consits of everything from double story buildings to the federal express mailbox.


                             


Here's one more picture of the Village you can see the cars that are going to take alot of beating. This is the back of the Village.
This is another Village at Challenge Park, there's just one little difference THEY BLEW IT UP! This is really a nice field that looks exactly like a blown up french town in WWII!






                             

This is a really nice picture of a team member on Notorious. Good picture of a nice Lean out!
This is a picture of people using the angles on the field. Very nice stature!






                             

We called this THE STACK, the only bunker on the far right tape. This was not as much of a deciding factor in the game as most people thought because you knew who won the game before either got to this point!
The Enemy of the picture right above this one. This is a classic shoot out! You can see these guys understand what they are doing and what has to be done.






                             

This is a picture of Field 4, the field that GDST played there games on! The blue van in this picture is where Joe Vanden Boogard and Jeremy Buzzel took alot of these pictures.
Here's a good picture of Jeremy's car. This thing may have good gas millage but when it comes down to three guys and all there gear it gets a little crowded!





                             

These two pictures are both pictures of the tournament speedball fields at challenge park but unfortanutly we couldn't play on these because steping on them would make you sink down 6 feet under!


                             

Another picture of the team CFH(Cowboys From Hell). These guys were in GDST's division however we never played them. They took 6th place in our division.
A Murphy's law is trying to be avoided here. CLEAN AND CHECK YOUR GOGGLES BEFORE EVERY TOURNAMENT!






And The Final Score Is!

G.D.S.T missed the semifinals by 1 spot they took 5th in they're division, and only 4 out of the 4 division's could move on. G.D.S.T took 18th out of 46 teams that played that day! For there first major tournament I don't think that that's to shabby.
