Procaps, Draxxus and American Paintball Supply Say Farewell to Tyson Evenson


This post is to display Procaps message and tribute to Tyson Evenson.

"Tyson Evenson - Sly Equipment - RIP

Around 2004, an overly excited, high-energy person comes into our company's life.

Immediately, thoughts came to mind of "Here's another one of these vendors that is excited about paintball, but when will the excitement stop?" Fast-forward about three years and this excitable, energetic person still remained. An incredible lust for the sport, friendship and business ethics remained with Tyson until his last day.

Zap to Archon to American Paintball Supply and then finally to Procaps; all found great success and pleasure with Sly products.

As we mourn for someone that lost his life way too early, we should all be reminded of his passion for this sport and life in general. In this business there are few people that you can truly call a friend and when you find one, you cherish it forever.

Those that knew Tyson realize that you can't sum up all he brought us in a few short paragraphs. Instead, he would want us to continue his legacy through the crazy wacky stories, antics, games played, and the desire to make paintball the best sport in the world.

Now, raise your glass, make your balloon animal and salute Tyson one last time.

When will the excitement stop?
Hopefully never when we remember Tyson Evanson and Sly Equipment.

You will be missed more than words can say.
