SCK Paintball was a New Zealand online paintball retailer operating through sckpaintball.com. Its website sold paintball markers, playing equipment, clothing and accessories, and contemporary tournament reports credited it with providing support and prizes.[1][2]
History
An archived version of the shop dated 12 October 2008 offered product categories covering markers, playing and casual clothing, air and CO2 equipment, paintballs, accessories and DVDs. Featured products included MacDev Droid and HK Droid markers and the Derder instructional DVD Xplained. The shop offered New Zealand and Australian dollar pricing.[1]
By January 2011, the website included separate store, media and contact sections. Its media section advertised photographs and videos of teams and events, alongside equipment-repair videos. The contact page identified the business contact as Jono.[3][4]
A contemporary participant subsequently identified Jono as Jono Clark and recalled a connection between SCK Paintball and North Shore Paintball. The precise nature of that relationship has not been established in the recovered contemporary records.[6]
Tournament support
A report published on 8 December 2008 thanked Jono of SCK for support and prizes at the December event in the 2008 Hamilton 3s competition. The report linked directly to sckpaintball.com.[2]
The announcement for the 2010 Easter 5s in Christchurch listed prizes supplied by SCK Paintball: five Dye Rotor loaders for first place, five Dye i4 goggles for second and five pairs of Dye knee pads for third.[5]
