alright so now the cold weather season is coming up now, and i've been notcicing some changes in my game such as thermal lens fogging, lower efficiency, and maybe perhaps differences with paintballs. so far i've been trying to guess what i should get for upgrading not only my marker, by my equpiment, such as my clothes, harness, maks, homemade mods ect. i just need professional help and want to readily prepared because this will be my first time playing in the woods when it goes into cold/snow season.

btw here's what i have so far:
A-5
lapcobigshot 8inch
palmer stabilizer
remote line
using Co2
regular woodland camo BDU
V-force shield w/amber thermal lens (currently fogging with cold temperatures, really bugging me)
redz double pouch with bottle holder
paint: superswirl, bigball, and (if i'm lucky) dusks

all your help is appreciated

co2 and cold weather are hard to do, maybe switch to HPA/Nitro, as far as your gogles go, do you have thermal protection spay?  its this little spritzer that you spray onto you gogles and rub around with cotton,  it is like a second thermal treatment fo your gogles.  It works ok.

i heard toothpaste will help, but i have x-ray lense which will not fog even if you try. they have a layer of air between two lense which make a nuetral air temperature between hot and cold, and wont fog. you can find them from $20-$30.

like the other guys said, sub-zero paintballs are great. you can buy them on xpaintball.com for as much as any other kind.

for c02 dont use the remoteline, look for electric heated socks, they use batterys to heat. stretch one over your tank, and one around the reciever of your gun to keep the valve warm, and chamber. also for the external black line for the cyclone, wrap some kind of insulation around it.

you might want some electric socks for your feet too.

good luck.
