What is Paintball?PAINTBALL is a
high action team sport consisting of players shooting gelatin capsules
filled with water soluble, biodegradable, non-toxic, paint at each other
while trying to obtain an objective. When a player is hit with a
paintball that breaks on his body or equipment he is marked out. Most
private games run 10 minutes so the player is out until the next game
starts. The most basic game consists of two teams trying to eliminate
the other team by marking all of the opposing team members out. The next
most popular game is Capture the Flag where both teams are trying to
grab a flag in the middle of the playing field and return it to their
starting point which wins the game. Most players use a semi-auto paintball marker that shoots a
paintball every time that they pull the trigger. Performance Paintball Park
rents the Smart Parts Ion electro-pneumatic semi-auto markers for the
new player's use for $20 for the day. The rental also includes all the
necessary high pressure to power the
marker and a set of safety approved JT Elite goggles attached to a full
face mask that covers the face, chin, ears, and of course your eyes. All
markers come with a barrel cover that slides over the end of the marker
barrel for when the marker is not in use so you cannot accidentally
shoot a paintball out of the marker. We also offer neoprene neck
protectors as well as front and back chest protectors and Redz 2 pod
harnesses for players who wish to carry additional paintballs. If after reading through our web page, you have any questions about PAINTBALL or playing at Performance Paintball Park, please call us at 585-328-0250 or 585-235-5290 and our friendly professional staff will be happy to answer them.
Who is Performance Paintball?Performance Paintball opened in 2001 by former professional paintball player, Chris Martello of "Sonic Rage" and "Lockout" fame. He has been playing tournament paintball and training players for almost two decades. Chris saw a need in the Rochester Area for a true paintball pro shop which specialized in repairs of all makes and models of paintball markers, air systems and hoppers. Also a pro shop was needed to offer customers low cost yet high quality paintballs and products. This business philosophy has developed Performance Paintball into the largest full service paintball complex in Upstate New York.With the experience that Chris has gained from playing tournaments and studying paintball fields, he knew exactly what was needed; a new local paintball park, which would cater to tournament players as well as scenario and recreational players and at the same time keeping it very affordable. There are currently two paintball fields at Performance Paintball Park. The outdoor field features a 1 acre, grass covered playing surface, with huge hyper pipe bunkers to hide behind and a giant two story castle. The field is reconfigured bi-weekly to challenge even the best paintball players. This year he added a new affordable indoor paintball field, featuring astro turf, air ball bunkers, an elevated staging and viewing area, electronic scoring and a new paintball playing format to keep you on the field longer and get your heart pumping. The field is well lit and heated to a comfortable 70 degrees. There is never a bad view, so be sure to bring your photo cameras and video cameras for memories, which are sure to last a life time. Performance Paintball Park
outdoor field is open every Sunday afternoon from Noon till 3 pm. Come on out with your own
gear and join in on a game with players of the same skill level. If you
don't have your own gear, come out anyway for a great day of
paintball. We offer state-of-the-art rental packages to provide you with all of the
equipment needed to get on the field and of course be safe. You'll never feel out gunned at
Performance Paintball Park. We also can offer you private instruction
from our professional staff, to help take your game to the next
level.
