Xtreme Paintball: Beyond the Paint Debuts On Tuesday, October 2nd
New Series Airs On FSN Every Tuesday at 4:30 PM Local
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Xtreme Paintball: Beyond the Paint, a new series profiling the biggest personalities from the most popular extreme sport in America, starts a 13-week run on FSN beginning on Tuesday, October 2 at 4:30 PM local.
The innovative show takes paintball fans behind the goggles and into the personal lives of men and women who play paintball at the highest level. Produced by Winnercomm, Xtreme Paintball focuses half of its attention on the fast-paced, intense, hyper-energetic professional paintball competitions and half on getting to know the players. How did the tobacco farmer from Maryland befriend the surfer boy from California? Is the jet-setting bad boy going to be able to live under league rules for an entire season? And what was the impetus behind the international male supermodel deciding that the best thing he could do for his career was to load up a paint marker and take out other players with thousands of balls of paint?
Xtreme Paintball: Beyond the Paint also appeals to the most passionate paintball fans, as it features action from a National Professional Paintball League (NPPL) tournament, with a unique approach to highlighting the key moves and strategies of each game.
