Hello again,
I am imaginaing this to be like when you put coins on your elbow and try and catch them, but with a sling you'd just follow through. Short sling and very little body movement. Correct me if I am wrong.

Techstuf was the one who introduced it. He had a video of it here:
http://www.slinging.org/forum2/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=1;action=display;num=11233268...
but I can't watch them for some reasons?!!!
basicly it is wraping the sling around the elbow, holding the pouch with you slinging hand and flip the hand and elbow so that the sling unwraps itself. Very accurate according to Techstuf but I never quite got it.

I had no luck with most videos on that page, only one or two of them still works.
Most are removed due to inactivity.
Techstuff, if you still have to clips, can you make them available again?

Techstuff,
If you are still around and have time, I am unable to see widows formated (windows media files) as I am a Linux user if you could see your way to either messaging me or reformating the files as mpg or avi files I would be very appreciative.

I finally upgraded my computer a couple days ago....I'll see what I can get done. Starting to get real busy on account of an outdoor festival in our area and I would like to squeeze into my slinging.org shirt and slap some slings in a few hands. I've been out to a defunct air strip a couple miles from my town. After the cold war, it was converted into a drag racing motorplex....it too lost patronage and is now deserted. I will try and track down the owner and get permission for an official record attempt. I've put a few projectiles out there, it's the perfect place....3/4's of a mile long. I can always back into an adjacent field if I need more room. (insert hearty LOL here)
