All Safari Ridge Adventure Park rental paintball guns are set to fire at a
velocity of 260 - 275 feet per second (fps). Players wishing to use
their own paintball guns are required to set their equipment to that same
velocity. Any player found to be re-setting their gun to a higher
velocity may be banned from play at this field!
Any player who suspects that another player has
reset their gun to a higher velocity should report the incident to a
Safari Ridge staff member. Keep in mind, however, that how much a
paintball impact may hurt depends on many factors including, relative
humidity on the day of play, angle of impact, location of impact,
proximity to target, etc. Further, "high end" paintball guns are designed
to shoot farther and straighter, without increasing velocity, so they can
sometimes appear to be shooting at a higher velocity even though they are
not. The fact that many paintball guns feature simple thumb screw
adjustments which allow players to discreetly vary their velocity settings
makes the policing of our velocity requirement virtually impossible for
personal equipment. If you are concerned that another player may be
demonstrating this unsportsmanlike conduct, your best alternative may be
to simply not play with them. In such case, tell a Safari Ridge
staff member that your group would prefer to play by themselves. We
feature Private Games for any size group every day.
Players wishing to use their own equipment should
take note that you are not guaranteed admission into every, or any,
game with other players who are equipped with rental guns. If you want
to ensure adequate play time for yourself you should be prepared to;
a) make
arrangements ahead of your play date to play with other paintball players
who have their own equipment, or,
b) be
prepared to rent Safari Ridge rental guns if you wish to join some group
games (keep in mind, however, that not all groups are willing to accept
other players into their games, regardless of the equipment used).
For those players using C02 - please note that we
no longer fill C02 tanks but we will, however, swap out your C02 for a
compressed air tank for you to use for the day for the same price as All
Day Air. |
