Joakim (19) vil få med flere på hobbyen: – Jeg spanderer alt, unntatt utstyr og ammunisjon!
– Jeg vil helst ha med alle slags folk fra alle slags land. Du er velkommen om du er 20 eller 60 år, sier Joakim Isaksen med et stort smil.

The Host
I’m a community organiser at heart. I host the kind of nights and days people are still talking about weeks later, and I’ve been doing it since I was a teenager.

From the Papers

“Joakim (19) wants more people to join the hobby: I’m paying for everything, except equipment and ammunition!”
“I’d love to have all kinds of people from all kinds of countries. You’re welcome whether you’re 20 or 60,” says Joakim Isaksen with a big smile.
At nineteen I wanted more people to fall for paintball, so I put on an event and covered everything except the gear and the paint. Plenty had signed up already. To fill the last spots, I headed into the city centre to invite people in person.

Paintballat Tomasjord · Sunday, 23 August
A company team, two sides, a lot of paint
and one question: who actually has a plan?
Hosted by Joakim Isaksen & Robin
Dress code: clothes you don’t love
One Sunday, 23 August, Robin and I put on a paintball day at Tomasjord for a company team. My job as host is simple: everyone plays, everyone laughs at least once, and nobody leaves without a story.
Paint was involved.
The Host’s Rules

I’m competitive, not cruel. Winners may gloat. Briefly.
