some slinging style videos
Oct 6^th, 2005 at 10:55am

I got some videos of diferent slinging styles at Istan sling competition (Malaga, Spain) last weekend, they are .asf files ranging from 2 to 11 mb... but i can only watch them on the TV , cause it seems i need to download a special "codec" to visualize them with the media player program on my computer.
i'd like to share with you, but there's a 5 mb limit to send them to Chris... do i send only the ones <to 5 mb?

Finally i uploaded 19 .asf files at: http://www.putfile.com/zorrro
i think they can be viewed with windows media player (i did it with version 9 for W 98 millenium edition wich is the OS i'm running, theres version 10 for windows XP, also may be useful to download and install WM9Codecs9x.exe in order to play latest videofiles.
Tell me if it works (allow some time to download)and Enjoy!! Grin

Feel free to copy and share all files

They take forever to load but are exciting to see. Haven't seen them all yet but I've got to say I wish I were in the tournament! We slinging.org should try to set up something similar!

Agreed Tint, organization is very simple, only need some netting and not much space to sling, even it can be done slinging against a net and recover all the projectiles if some are hand made and /or valuable.
The only downside is that traveling far is very expensive.
Need lot of time to download, but i hope you can also save to your HD so you caan watch them over and over again. Grin

You also can hear the music and people cheering.

AWESOME ZORRO!!!!

Thank you for all those videos!

Vicente needs to look at these videos and tell us if all the styles used would be legal for the Balearic competitions.

The style they call "Buckaroo" is the figure 8 style we talk about!

I didn't see anyone slinging very hard at all. I guess I was expecting to see some guys really whipping that target off the poles.

Great stuff. Everyone needs to veiw them!

Putfile allows direct download of the file, they just hide the location behind their web-interface. You need to find the url for the video itself. Depending on your browser, you can figure this out a few different ways. Matthias

Those are cool Zorrro. I need some spanish guitar guys playing in the background to get me in the "zone" next sling outing methinks. Thanks for the hard work getting these posted!

Agreed David that they are throwing pretty lightly. I'm a bit more accurate with a moderate amount of power, but I've been hitting (or not hitting) mostly longer range targets my whole "career". The slings look really short as well - well under a meter, closer to 60cm?

So the *real* question is where are the videos of Zorrro slinging? Hope you did us proud! Grin
