The Joy of Cleats

I recently played paintball and the weather was perfect - sunny and 65 or 70 degrees all day long. The night before, though, it had rained and the ground was still pretty soggy. After a couple of games where I caught myself slipping before a run, I decided it was time to switch to my cleats - I didn't slip the rest of the day and never even thought about the wetness of the terrain except when I slid into a mud hole.

If you're looking for something to add to your paintball arsenal, consider a pair of cleats. They don't work very well on rocky terrain or on Astro Turf, but if you play on grass, dirt or in the woods, they work wonders. I personally use soccer cleats with molded bottoms, but other people use football, baseball or even track cleats - they all can give you an edge.
