Team First To Receive Furious Sponsorship for X7/A-5 LOTUS Barrels

Salt Lake City, Utah – April 29, 2010 – Bad Karma, a scenario, big game and CQB team from Salt Lake City, Utah, today announced they have been selected as the first team to be sponsored by Furious Paintball with their X7/A-5 LOTUS barrels. Bad Karma joins an exclusive set of teams chosen to represent Furious in the United States.

All team members are anticipated to run the 14-inch handcrafted barrels that are each made from carefully selected, high-grade aluminum alloy and then honed by engineers who have more than 10 years of experience. Barrel ports on the LOTUS are painstakingly calculated to minimize ball breakage, maximize accuracy, and save on air consumption. Each 14-inch barrel is 113 grams (under 4 ounces) and is also available in 16" and exclusive 17" versions for the X7 and A-5 line of Tippmann markers. The barrels are currently available with .685, .689 and .693 backs.

"We tested the LOTUS barrel from Furious at our Operation Bad Karma event recently," said Jared Bronson, Team Commander, "and we all came to the same conclusion after shooting some Valken paint: These things let you reach out and touch someone. They’re incredibly accurate."

Nate Durbano, the team’s Co-Commander added, "Besides the accuracy, the LOTUS is one of the lightest barrels on the market, has real technology behind how they port it, and is just beautiful to look at. I love it."

"Bad Karma is a premier paintball team that has a reputation for playing hard, playing fair, and representing the sport well," said Matthew Nekvapil at Furious. "We’re excited to have them as a sponsored team and look forward helping them keep their game at a high level."

Look for Bad Karma at Living Legends III at CPX Sports in Chicago next month, where they will be representing Furious and other sponsors.
