DerDer Nation Volume 2 is a tournament paintball film produced by DerDer Productions, documenting regional paintball competition in the United States during the 2008 season. The production features footage from five tournaments organised by the Xtreme Paintball Sports League (XPSL), Carolina Field Owners Association (CFOA) and GPL.[1]

The film is the sequel to DerDer Nation (2007) and was distributed as the second disc of a double-DVD package alongside Progression.[1][2]

Content

DerDer Nation Volume 2 documents regional tournament paintball during the 2008 season, continuing DerDer Productions' coverage of competitive players outside the major professional circuits.

Tournament coverage

[edit]

The original promotional announcement identifies footage from five events:[1]

  • XPSL Bakersfield: Bakersfield, California.
  • CFOA X-Ball Event 1: The opening CFOA X-Ball event of 2008.
  • GPL Event 1: The first GPL tournament of the season.
  • XPSL Las Vegas: Las Vegas, Nevada.
  • XPSL San Bernardino: The third XPSL event of the season, promoted under the San Bernardino name.

The three XPSL events were held during the first half of 2008, with Bakersfield scheduled for 29 February–2 March, Las Vegas for 25–27 April and San Bernardino for 6–8 June.[3]

Production and release

[edit]

DerDer Nation Volume 2 was produced by DerDer Productions as a follow-up to DerDer Nation, which had covered regional tournament competition during the 2007 season.

On 5 November 2008, ThisISPaintball published a promotional announcement for Progression, confirming that the DVD package included DerDer Nation Volume 2 as a second disc.[1]

The two productions covered different levels of tournament competition. Progression focused on professional players competing in the National Professional Paintball League (NPPL) and Paintball Sports Promotions (PSP), while DerDer Nation Volume 2 documented regional events.[1]

The double-disc package was subsequently distributed by paintball retailers, including the German retailer Paintball-Land, under the title DerDer Progression inkl. Nation Vol 2.[2]

The exact commercial release date and running time of DerDer Nation Volume 2 have not been independently established.
