posted Feb 21st, 2025 - The next featured NSL Live Talk interview with anchor Kamuran "Sonic" Bayrasli at Paraclete XP brought him home to his favorite team, Ranch 2nd Generation, as two members, Michelle Karamon and Brenn Richards, train and compete with new indoor 4-way team Tunnel Vision, together with former Arizona Airspeed member Niklas Hemlin and former SDC Rhythm XP member Keith Conner.

The complete Tunnel Vision lineup was glad to introduce the team and their plans to the NSL News audience. It was the first time that Tunnel Vision was available with all team members in the run-up to the Paraclete XP Indoor Championship 2025. Michelle Karamon and Niklas Hemlin had provided the first team information with NSL Live Talk online on February 6th after returning from the Wind Games 2025 in Spain.

The other half of Ranch 2nd Generation, Joey Marshall and Chris Kuhlmann, were on NSL Live Talk with the complete Arizona Airspeed lineup on February 12th, and Sonic had them back on camera and microphone at Paraclete XP, as well. The NSL News will follow up as soon as possible with the video of the latest Airspeed interview. Sonic was not shy of addressing and discussing a delicate situation last year. Joey Marshall and Chris Kuhlmann were in charge of recruiting two new team members. Their two team mates of 2015 and 2016, Michelle Karamon and Brenn Richards, were both on the list of candidates and did not make it into the new Airspeed lineup.

NSL Live Talk: Kamuran "Sonic" Bayrasli with Tunnel Vision

---

In fact, Tunnel Vision member Keith Connor was on the same list and missed the cut, as well. Joey Marshall and Chris Kuhlmann eventually selected Alisson de Vargas and Doug Hendrix as their new team mates.

It is not a surprise that all three former Airspeed candidates are eager to show Joey Marshall and Chris Kuhlmann what they are capable of, as they told Sonic during the NSL Live Talk conversation. The first opportunity is coming up this weekend when they will be facing the new Airspeed lineup in competition. Three U.S. teams (Tunnel Vision, Golden Knights, SDC Rhythm XP) are ready to make it as difficult as possible for Arizona Airspeed to finish in the desired 2nd place behind the French Aethers Medjay.

Tunnel Vision is exclusively an indoor team, even though all team members are also world-class outdoor competitors. The indoor season will be over for Tunnel Vision after the national indoor championship. Michelle Karamon, Brenn Richards and Keith Conner have plans with other teams for outdoor training and competition. Michelle Karamon and Brenn Richards also compete together with a new XPG4 lineup (Anna Brunner, Laura Galdamez) at the indoor world championship in April. Niklas Hemlin will focus only on his coaching job with the Golden Knights and winning the USPA Nationals this year. He also explained that the indoor project will continue with Tunnel Vision when the new indoor season begins. Ultimate goal for the team is winning the national indoor qualification in 2026 and the indoor world championship gold medals in 2027.
