Airsoft tournament sport has been on the rise for years. The keyword here is Airsoft SpeedQB – the airsoft tournament scene is developing practically on the same path as paintball sport once did. Airsoft players who want to get out of the forest and into the tournament scene will find their home in the so-called SpeedQM.
SpeedQB is very similar to tournament paintball. The game is played indoors on symmetrically arranged playing fields with wooden coverings. The layout of the playing field can be freely designed before each tournament, so that new playing fields are always created.
When you think of airsoft equipment, camouflage clothing and realistic weapon models inevitably come to mind. That was once… Today's airsoft tournament sport is breaking new ground. He is colorful, fast and focused on the sporting aspect of the game. The SpeedQB Airsoft weapons look more like modern paintball tournament markers. They are colorful, fast and designed for maximum lightness. Many modern SpeedQB weapons even have an Airsoft HPA system . This is either carried on the back and connected to the weapon via a hose, or it is attached directly to the bottom of the handle. Anyone who looks at a weapon like this will quickly see the parallels to paintball tournaments.
What began years ago as a small fringe sport and was mostly ridiculed by the players has now turned into a real sport. Dozens of teams compete against each other at tournaments and play for points, trophies and prize money.
