No ones knows until it comes out and the people that do aren't going to say it. Its one of those suprise things. I don't think they are going to move into the higher end gun market. They are making a good money and have ingraved their position as it is. I think it will be an a-5 with some different gadgets and abilities.

The was equiliaer board is made by the one and only wicked air sports. Check out their website for some info on it. I haven't heard much maybe its a secret too

Ready or not here I come?

Yes they are making a board for the a-5 AND the 98 custom. Actually both are the same board, and will work with either. The price is 100 and will include the board, and a new solenoid (with a plug-in for eyes ) Supposed to come out March 1st

I read an interview with one of the Tippmann Effect players and he
mentioned that Tippmann was working on a high end gun for future
release.

Go to model98.net they have a ton of stuff on refiting a peredator board to a custom and some stuff on tippmann making the new gun. Just for the record your tippmann will never fire over 14bps because it used a spring to recock itself so to make it go faster you will need to make an air ram its all on there.

All WAS boards are semi-auto only. No exceptions.

IT DON"T MATTA FOR THE A-5 R ALL U PEOPLE IGNORANT?? the cyclone will only feeeed 15 bps thats it... no more... so why would a new board for the e-grip be essential?

^^^That's what I've been saying, a WAS board in either of the current guns is usless. In a 98, the ram won't cycle any faster, and you'll chop paint. In the A-5, the cyclone won't keep up. The only advantage would be the eyes, but those won't work on an A-5 with a cyclone, because after it tells the gun not to fire once, the system will stop because the cyclone won't feed without the blowback form firing.

no you are ignorant. The cyclone can feed 18bps. Even tippmanns official statement was 15+bps!
oh and can i get a vid of your marker doing 30bps please?

Lol... you can vert feed the a-5. And there are mods you can do to the e-bolt ram to make it go 20+ bps.

i second the motion on a video of your gun. you dont have a video camera then borrow a friends. and its quite funny how you call him cheap when your asking him to buy you a video camera so that you can prove your claim.

as for the cyclone, i agree with the 15 unless you can somehow mod the cyclone to cycle in more blowback gas to spin it faster. hey, for all we know though, an electronic cyclone will be released to match up with that 30bps or at least come closer to that speed

A5, egrip, cp barrel kit, check it asa, etc

I think the word "beyond" means 15+bps.
