Beverly Hills, Calif. (Date January 20, 2007) – Paintball enthusiasts, rejoice.
Xhaled.com is the one-stop Web site for paintball enthusiasts and those wanting to learn more about the third-fastest extreme sport in America.
Launched in October 2006, Xhaled.com fills a void in the sport of paintball, featuring on-demand videos that feature everything from tips to tournaments; chat rooms to keep players connected; and news about all the latest paintball trends and techniques.
Xhaled also produces “This Week in Paintball,” (TWIP) a bi-weekly, online show all about the world of paintball and featuring news from the National Profession Paintball League (NPPL), Pure Sports Promotion (PSP), Xtreme Paintball Sorts League (XPSL), Scenario Professional Paintball League (SPPL), NXL (X-ball), The Millennium Series, and more.
The first episode of TWIP received more than 800,000 views – demonstrating the interest in paintball and need for news and information about the sport. Currently, Xhaled receives an average of 250,000 page requests per day.
TWIP “Episode #4” will be launched on January 22. With expanded coverage, this episode features in-depth news, major player trades, and techniques even the most seasoned paintball players will appreciate.
“Paintball is has a huge reach, with more than 10 million participants in the U.S., and with the emergence of on-demand technology it was a natural fit to create an online community for the paintball audience,” says Xhaled founder Michael Bowers. “Xhaled has been enthusiastically embraced by hundreds of thousands of people and we continue to provide more content and media to our audience and help move the sport forward.”
