The Walter Klassen SlingShot is our versatile and dynamic support system for handheld and gimbals.  At the center of the SlingShot is an elastic tube suspended from an independently controlled telescopic tube with tool-free adjustment. The adjustable upper arm angles and elastic tension controls  your camera payload. Whether you use the single arm SingleShot or the dual arm SlingShot both allow the dynamic range of camera moves from low to high while transferring the weight to your hips and back through the FLEX Harness relieving fatigue and strain on your body.

The SlingShot Elastics are available in a number of weights to support a variety of camera packages, while maintaining your preferred vertical dampening characteristics.

The SlingShot is designed to pair with our FLEX Harness by using the Walter Klassen back-mount system to disperse the camera load to the hips and the entire back while reducing arm fatigue, so you can concentrate on the shot and not the weight. The SlingShot adjusts to be a compact system, fitting easily through doorways and into cramped spaces. The SlingShot can connect to your preferred gimbal setup in a number of ways.

Specifications

Our SlingShot elastics come in 3 sizes:
Medium - 0.4375 inch (11.1 mm) black tubing. Recommended for 25 to 40 lb (11.3 to 18.1 kg) payloads. 
Heavy - 0.500 inch (12.7 mm) black tubing. Recommended for 40 to 50 lb (18.1 to 22.7 kg) payloads. 
Extra Heavy - 0.4625 inch (14.29 mm) black tubing. Recommended 50 to 55 lb (22.7 to 25 kg) weight limit (more dampening than weight bearing).

All elastics can handle more weight than the recommended payload, but will result in extra weight/load on the user's arms. For any payloads over 35 lb (15.9 kg), please use with a FLEX harness.
