1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_hair

My expertise in this subject comes from the fact that I was born a redhead and, hopefully, will die a redhead. I've lived through all the sunburns because of my fair/extremely pale skin pigment. The article is a very good description of my fellow kind.

2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paintball

I have been paintballing since I was about 15 or 14, which is why I know a bit about it. I am familiar with all types of play: whether it be speedball, or woodsball. Also, I'm very familiar with how to use all the equipment and what gear will enhance or take away from your playing ability.

3. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tippmann_98_custom

With my many years of experience, I have used all types of paintball guns, but the Tippmann 98 is my most recent addition to the collection. I did a lot of research before buying one and know a lot about the additions that are available for this gun.

4. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longboarding

Longboarding is a new hobby of mine, but it is now my favorite. I'm a big researcher before buying anything, so I researched longboard for a good month before buying one. With all that research being done, I picked up a lot of knowledge about all the different styles and sizes of longboards and what they all bring to the proverbial longboarding table.

5. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowboarding

I've only been longboarding 3 times in my life, but over the coarse of two years I have picked up a lot of understanding for the sport. This includes: boards, bindings, boots, board repair, goggles, helmets, stance, and carving.


Wikipedia #2

I chose paintball barrels to write about in the Wiki #2 assignment because there was nothing on the site that talked about barrels. Therefore, I would write up an entirely new section depicting paintball barrels. And here it is.

"Paintball barrels are what make the paintballs fly further than 10 feet. They are essential to the game of paintball because all accuracy depends on them. Barrels vary in size between 8" and 21". Different bore sizes are made for each barrel as well. The bore size helps increase velocity if the paintball fits snuggly inside of the barrel. Every different paintball gun brand has it's own thread for its barrel. There is no universal paintball barrel. Barrels also vary on the inside as well as thread shape and bore size. A barrel can have a normal polish finish on the inside, or it can me rifled. Rifling a barrel helps put a spin on the ball that will increase hang time, which will increase range. Porting is also a huge factor with barrels. Barrels have holes drilled out on the sides, which is called porting. This helps release extra gas that could potentially cause the paintball to explode inside the barrel, or push the paintball in an unwanted direction. Too much porting and a decrease in velocity will occur, but too little will cause the explosion or unwanted direction due to air/co2 buildup."
