HPS #4 Tomahawk Tour ::2nd Place::
The heat was definitely on for this tournament, as we were leading the series after three events and a win would get us closer to the championship as we had one more leg and reffing to do (full points)
4th Leg of this Leg was set in the parking lot of a... beach bar excellent location, in our opinion everything was so good that got you distracted from your main purpose, you had the beach, the bar, the sun, the women and the coronas screaming to leave your marker and have fun with them instead. But as professional athletes we had to overcome all these horrifying conditions and focus on our mission to finish the tournament!
The sun layed above us providing us with temperatures of around 35 C degrees making it ideal for other things in that area instead of paintball. But the games started, we went through the prelims with a single defeat ending 1st and faced in the semi finals the powerful Paintball Cyprus Factory Team, the best team of Cyprus just payed us a visit to show us their skills and certainly they got too much of it. After three great games with them, we advanced to finals facing our all year rivals Maxs Threat who had overcome Damage.
Finals got on their way, some marker problems frustrated us during the game and this reflected on our performance, as we lost a game that we could have easily win. This frustration broke down our morale, and went into the second game not as we should, we got a draw there. In the third game we just lost, not too happy to write about it as this loss, would mean in the overall scoresheet that we were tied with Maxs (1 win, 1 reffing, 2 2nd places) against our performance (2 wins, 2nd places) so the hunt for the title was definitely on for Thessaloniki, the 5th leg which would greatly determine the title.
Apart from the result this was one of the best tournaments because mostly of it’s location, I think one the best over greek territory up to date a big thanks to George Adamidis, the man who organized it, another cool thing was that the original Supreme crew ( Angel, Nick, Dimitris, Jerry, Teo) was playing all together something that had to happen from January of 2004 (apart from the millenniums) Again we had great fun hanging with our friends from Mexico, the coronas hope this repeats next year just with a better result, Have a great summer and see you all in Thessaloniki in September.
