  • A walk through the arsenal of The Slingshot Channel! Only the best designs are presented. This video features 14 fantastic slingshots (not 15 as said in the video, one model was taken out in post production). All models are self designed and hand made by Jörg Sprave, proud owner of The Slingshot Channel.
    Each slingshot is briefly presented and shot.

    "and this is my 14th slingshot, very strong, I killed a dragon with it yesterday..."

    Never hit my hand, and the slow motion (recorded with the high speed camera) clearly shows that there is a safe distance between the path of the ball and my finger...

    It’s really cool seeing how you’ve progressed as a media personality.
    And you learned that you could do a whole video on one or two weapons and not be boring about it.

    Well, a less strong shooter has to use weaker bands, that is all. Thanks for the praise!

    Cool! I spent my childhood searching for the best form of a slingshot. Me and dad never managed to make slingshots like those. Your designs are beyond imagination man.

    I have to say, that self defence slingshot was ridiculous but I would own one of those.

    The taser-double-knife-tear-gas-slingshot combo is my absolute favorite. I commend you and everything that you do, Jörg.

    Absolutely gorgeous collection you have there Joerg. My favorite sling at the moment is my Joerg Sprave limited edition Dankung. I love the way my pinky can hold the sling after a hard shot. I have it set up with double theraband gold, each band about 1 1/4 inches wide and 9.5 inches long from tie to attachment. I added a leather wrist band and removed the para-cord so the finger holes would be as big as possible. It feels like a Remington bolt action rifle from the old west. I love this sling!

    GREAT JOB!!! I just found your videos and very impressed. Im going to try some homemade inspired by you. I have an old store bought one from the 70s I had since i was a kid with a pistol grip and a rubbernet rist strap and upgraded to large tubes for hunting and targets. It will put a marble right through a jackolantern and very accurate. After watching you, things are about to get a little more technical...and fun. What a great pasttime for me and my sons (7 + 3 ).Thanks a ton!!!

    I suggest corundum, it has a very high density. A 17,5 mm coundum stone weighs 10 gramms, as much as a 14 mm steel ball. Not bad!
    You can find it on ebay, not very expensive,

    I actually have used flat bands in the V, works fine. But the flat bands will tear much sooner than the tubes.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to reply.
    Wow, youre more informed than I am about the legalities re slingshots in Australia. I didnt realise the ban applied only to the Y type slingshots. I used to make sling shots out of tree forks and red rubber bands when I was a youngster but they had no where near the power that yours have + the bands were chained together and kept breaking a lot. Thx for the info.
    e about the 80's but never realised that the bans only applied to Y shaped types.

  • @mowwow1998
    @mowwow1998 12 років тому +1

    I only recently stumbled across your channel while researching info on archery and I have to say I absolutely love it. Your creativity never ceases to amaze me, and I can see why the Germans are leaders in innovative engineering.
    Unfortunately in Australia Sling shots are illegal in most states excluding the territories.
    Keep up the great work and entertaining vids.

    Good news for you: AFAIK only Y-shaped slingshots are illegal in Australia. This means that the Gloveshot, the "W" frames and the stickshots are legal.
