Hello!

After searching the net for a while finally found myself this forum and got an account!

So I would like to say hi!

As introduction I only recently discovered slinging. Tried it several months (or maybe more can't remember exactly) ago with 2 pieces of string and a bit of old cloth. But boy that thing was dangerous so I quit for a while.

Recently discovered it again and decided to make a new sling with better materials! Threw a couple times and was quite amazed with it, so I made two more!

Got myself three slings now, two made of braided hemp rope with different pouches about 70cm long. Made a huge one out of 8mm polyester rope with a massive pouch about 1,2m long, it's ridiculous, heavy, dangerously unstable but it's quite fun regardless!

Below is an Imgur post of my proudest sling!

Welcome from Finland! Really nice looking slings. Much better than my first ones. Better than a lot of the slings I make now to be honest...

I, without sin, shall cast the first stone. That will be your sign to attack! But you shall not fight this unholy enemy with stones. No! RAZOR GLANDES!  Aim for the eyes! May the Lord have mercy, for we shall show none!“  -Jesus the Noodler
