We moved to a different hosting provider for added space, and did some version updates on the site as well. Hopefully the most of you will not notice too much of a difference (if everything works, that is), but we did change the domain name to www.cyclone.fi for clarity. Traffic from the old links should be redirected automatically, but if something doesn’t seem to work, give us a shout.

Interview with Mikko Huttunen – DYE Snow and LA Ironmen
Over the winter we have been reading various rumors and bits of gossip about DYE branching into snow sports, but there hasn’t been too much concrete information. With the PSP season opener in Galveston, Texas showing Mikko Huttunen amiss from the Ironmen back line, we figured that something is really bubbling under. We contacted Mikko and discussed a lot of recent topics.

Crash at the Coast Miami 2011 Video – Nice!
HK Army released the video of their 5 day clinic/party held in Miami around new years. Seems like it’s been a huge blast, reminds me of all the good times we’ve had on the trips, gotta go again soon! This is definitely one of the most fun clips I’ve seen in a million years, and a proper load of effort put in in post production! Check it out

Amtrak Classifies Paintball Markers as Firearms in U.S
As of tomorrow the 15th December U.S Railroad operator Amtrak allows unloaded firearms to be transported on train if pre checked and given at least 24h notice to Amtrak before departure. Requiring firearms to be transported in locked hard-boxes and pre checked sounds reasonable but now both paintball markers and airsoft markers get the same treatment and classification. Sure Amtrak doesn’t have luggage checks when you board so you can carry your gear if you want but what happens if an official decides to check your bag and follow the issue to the letter?
Once again we see how paintball equipment gets thrown in the same bunch as firearms. Even if Amtrak won’t pursue its customers with paintball markers its something that can easily carry ow-er to other similar circumstances and regulations.
You can find full Amtrak press release here or keep reading below.

Major rumor regarding Oliver Lang!
SocialPaintball posted a huge, but unverified and sourceless rumor regarding Oliver Lang. According to the quick post, Oliver has signed a contract with Planet Eclipse, and thus would be leaving both the Ironmen and his position at DYE. Now THAT’s what I call a big move, almost as big as the original (rumoured to be 10-year) contract with DYE back in 2006. If it turns out to be true, that is – no mention of such a thing on PE official sources.
Video update from NuSkool
AlmostFamous paintball has posted up a mid-season clip of NuSkool Wrecking Crew, the team Kasimir has been practising with. The video itself is nothing earth-shattering, but it gives again a nice perspective to the different style of play across the pond. These kids are putting in a lot of time and effort, and we will surely hear of them in the future. Actually, there have already been little birds singing about one of the NuSkool kids in special, and as the chorus for that birdsong there has been the name of a well-established pro team.. Time will tell. Meanwhile, check out the clip below:
Rare occasions..
By stumbling around the internet video sites and being a fan of (or liking, as it now goes) everything on Facebook, you get mostly tons of pointless and repetitive c**p, kinda like your million TV channels with nothing good on, ever. Except for Family Guy. On rare occasions, however, something nice crosses your path.
