Our story begins in 1996 with the invention of inflatable Paintball bunkers: SUP’AIRBALL™ was created. Inflatable bunkers were airtight bunkers, somewhat like those we use today. They were made of thick tarpaulin, using high frequency soldering and vulcanization.
1997: The SUP’AIRBALL™ fields were first showcased at the 7MAN WORLD CUP in Toulouse, in July and at the World Cup in Orlando, few months after.
1998: Invention of ventilated structures called FITTING
After several tests, The SUP’AIRBALL™ bunkers were added tie-downs with bungees to anchor them to the ground and increase their stability. Convinced that the combination of tie-downs and free weight was the solution, SUP’AIRBALL™ added underneath pockets to allow not only water but any kind of weights being placed under the bunkers. Those bunkers were showcased at the 1998 7MAN WORLD CUP in Toulouse. 2 months after, at the Campaign Cup in England, another system was launched with a permanent air flow going through all the bunkers, called “Fitting“. That air flow allowed to use a lighted fabric and made it easier and lighter to move for tournament/league operators. The big debut was made the following month at the World Cup in Orlando, with an astonishing success.
One of the great innovations was even ripped or pierced by careless players, the structures would still stand up. The tubing system around the field delivering the continuous flow was also the boundaries of that field, making it easy for the players and the referees to see who was in or out.
With those 2 technologies (Airtight and Fitting), ADRENALINE GAMES was able to supply all needs for Inflatable Paintball Fields.

The Tubeless Kit is a new variant on the inflatable field. There are no more tubes. The obstacle is constantly filled with air via a mini fan. Set-up is easier, and the kit can be used anywhere, thanks to its 26-hour autonomy.
