right just booked my flights for september. which is only a month and a bit away.
And as slingfest 07 is pretty much the only such event to have occured outside of spain in living memory - I figured it'd make sense to have it on the dvd. Rather than have to release version 1 and then update it after september. I figure if I get it right first time it'll be better.

what does anyone think ?

makes plenty of sense to me to get footage of the slingfest on there...makes it more complete i think...and will be a good record for the first time if this becomes an annual type of event.

Once the Spanish see your work, they'll all be over the following year.  ;)

They can bring their targets and scoring systems with them so long as they don't try to regulate what constitutes a "legal" sling, a "legal" stone and a "legal" slinging technique.

Sorry I just voted "yes", including Slingfest footage is a good idea. When what I meant was "no", I don't mind waiting that little bit longer. There's no undo button is there? :-[

;D

lol I think it's clear aussie :-)

Everyone's welcome - if they came no reason there shouldn't be a baleric comp as well as the rest :-)
I think we're going to give it a go anyway :-)

That's a yes as far as the targets and distance are concerned... but I am not going to sew, braid, weave, crochet or knit an all natural sling-a-ling between now and then...    >:(

And thanks Aussie for not just punching the wrong button but for confessing it...  it seems you were the second responder to do so but the first one hadn't 'fessed up to it.    ::)   So both the two "cares" really don't care...    :-/

Hi George and C-A,

Actually I'm not really belligerent as you know, and as to who does or does not come onto your land is hardly my call. I understand that the Ballearics are preserving their culture not just slinging generally. It's just that their rules are too restrictive and would certainly exclude both yourself and myself based on both equipment and style. Really it would be kind of nice if they sent an official representative. I unfortunately, am not in a position to attend but wish you all the best.

Keep them rocks flying!

Aussie

Yeh... your not coming to this is kinda like my wife's losses... I just try to not think about that...  We did really enjoy slinging with you in Aussie-land though and it makes the sadness of not having you here with the others a little more bearable.   You are a valuable asset to the slinging sport... you'll just have to make it to the next one.   8-)  

Once in a while someone talks about hosting but no word after that... who's got 2008????????

I'll ship the targets so you won't have to re-do those.  I still want to do a close range gallon milk bottle filled with water shoot... hit one with a steel ball the other day and was it ever spectacular (of course gasoline with a lighted candle behind is good too)...    ;D

ooh flames :-) where do I light up (umm sign up lol)
I did mention I'm a pyrophile ?

Did somebody mention explosives????????? ::)

nah - just lots of flames :-)
