St. Louis Avalanche and Vanguard, a Winning Combination
For Immediate Release
Vanguard Signs St. Louis Avalanche
Legendary NPPL Professional Team to Shoot Vanguard Creed and Demon Markers in 2011!
Corona, California – March 4, 2011 – Vanguard US announced today that legendary NPPL professional paintball team St. Louis Avalanche will play the 2011 season shooting Vanguard Creed and Demon markers! This agreement comes just as Vanguard is preparing to release their amazing new Demon pro-level paintball marker, following on the long-term success of the Creed.
St. Louis Avalanche will begin the 2011 season shooting the time-tested and competition-proven Vanguard Creed at the NPPL Surf City USA Open in April. Then, after the successful launch of the Demon marker at the event, Avalanche will transition from the balanced poppet-valve speed and efficiency of the Creed to the devastating accuracy and innovative design of the Demon as Vanguard’s flagship team battles on the highest level of paintball competition.
“Working with a team such as Avalanche, that has such a great following, is why we worked so hard to get this deal worked out,” said Eric Roysdon of Vanguard US. “This will bring a new world to both partners for the 2011 season and years to follow!”
Frank Connell of Avalanche echoed Vanguard’s excitement: “I was very impressed with the Creed and I look forward to the new Demon.” Connell continued, “I’m looking forward to working with an up-and-coming company like Vanguard.”
While the exact terms of the agreement between Vanguard and Saint Louis Avalanche were not disclosed, look for a custom Avalanche Demon to follow shortly after the worldwide launch of the Vanguard Demon marker at the 2011 Huntington Beach NPPL event!

It's good to see Avalanche still around and shooting an upper class marker 
With the past few rough seasons I wasn't sure how long they would stick together but I'm always glad to see a veteran team in the pro division

Great move for Frank and Avalanche, and of course for Vanguard! Should prove to be an awesome season!
On another note, Forgotten Muse Media Also refreshed the Avalanche Season for the 2011 season!

Awesome, it will be an epic year for Vanguard and Avalanche.
The Demon is going to be a beast, and I can't wait to see the Avalanche Demon.

great to see Vanguard pick up a Pro team for this season after XSV and Mutiny were *this* close to picking them up last year.
i love my creed, and i expect the demon to be top notch, not to mention that Eric's customer service is excellent

It will be cool to see a new marker on the pro scene.
That said, what on earth did they do to the Avalanche logo? It was so much better before...
I felt like the old logo was pretty iconic as far as paintball logos go. It had been around for a long time. This new logo is much to choppy for my tastes.
Eh.
Oh well. Best of luck to Avalanche and their new connections with Vanguard.

- Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
