they switched to
a Spire and never
had the problem
again. Aside from
that obvious performance benefit, the
fact that the Spire
is also the softest
on paint, easiest to
take a part, lightest
and smallest and
highest capacity
among the leading
loaders doesn’t hurt
either!
Sneak peak of the
upcoming PF135
and PF165 Pods.
PF stands for Press
Flick. It’s an intuitive locking lid style
pod that works
similar to a normal pod. Just press and
flick to open, but still stays locked on
hard dives. Most exciting aspect of the
pods is the fact that the 135round pod
is 2 inches shorter than a normal pod
and holds the same amount of paint.
Normal “140” round pods actually don’t
hold 140 if you count it out... it’s about
135, which is what the PF135 holds.
What matters is both hold the same
amount and the PF135 is 2” shorter. Or
if you want to have more paint capacity or carry less pods, you can use the
PF165 pod, which is now the same size
as a normal pod, but holds 30 more
balls. The player can take their pick...
20% smaller and hold the same paint,
or the same size and hold 20% more
paint. Some guys we’ve talked to are
looking at mixing it up with PF165s in
the pouches and PF135 in the loops.
We had other products were on display
as well, like the Clock chronograph,
which has become the industry standard for velocity and bps measurement, plus our CrownSF and Crown2.5
speed feeds, which cover both the high
and low-end of the speed feed market.
Can you give us a brief history of
Virtue Paintball?
Virtue was founded in 2005 and quickly become the top upgrade company
in paintball by offering Virtue boards
which were designed to upgrade the
engine of your gun. After years making guns better, designing and selling
more circuit boards than any company
in paintball, Virtue decided to transition
from an upgrade company to designing
and manufacturing complete products.
Our focus has always been to not only
design products which perform better
and more reliably from perspective of a
true paintball player, but to stick to our
grass roots of offering the best service
and support in the industry. A little
over a year ago we launched the Spire,
which has quickly grown into the largest hopper line in all of paintball with
the Spire 260 and Spire 200, and now
we’re excited to do the same with the
VIO.
