Team News: Ultimate, Hurricanes, and Glenn Taketmoto
Here’s some quick and dirty team news, perhaps somewhat random.
Team Ultimate has signed a new sponsorship deal with Smart Parts and will be shooting Epiphany Ions. Who knows the reasoning behind this, you’d think they would just get a Shocker deal. Some people argue it’s because too many teams already have the Shockers, and others say that it’s a marketing deal trying to get other people to buy into the gun. It might be a little of both, but I wouldn’t complain. I hear they’re fast enough, so it’ll be interesting. Ultimate also picked up sponsorships from Nitro Duck, PMI, JT, and View Loader.
New England Hurricanes have picked up three new players for the 07 season: Greg “Buddy” Hinthorne from Infamous, Brian Gigliotti from Miami Raiders and Chris “Poo” Costigan from Jax Raiders. They will also be shooting 07 Egos with Halos while wearing custom Eclipse jerseys.
It’s going to be an interesting year for Hurricanes and hopefully a breakout for them. They’ve been so close the past few years, and one of these days they’re going to drill the competition. They deserve a good year in my opinion.
And Glenn Takemoto has signed with Infamous, which should make them an upcoming powerhouse now that XSV crashed and burned. Not real crazy about Infamous, but I like them better than XSV.
