Introducing the latest addition to the Maxim family of slingshots from FlippinOut, the Maxim Champ.

This slingshot is the result of a collaboration between Rayshot and myself. Ray is extremely fond of small slingshots and began tweaking the Maxim design to accommodate his preferred style. Ultimately this is a scaled down Maxim Tactical, but with some slightly different curves within the handle section to provide a secure grip in an adult sized hand without the need for palmswells.
The resultant slingshot shot so well for Ray that he decided to win the 2012 East Coast Slingshot Tournament with it!! Thus, it is called the "Champ".

Yes, it is small, but not so small that it is not comfortable for the average male hand. And as an added bonus it is a perfect sized slingshot for kids and ladies. Here are a few variations of the Champ and a few photos showing the difference in size between the Champ and the Maxim Tactical

and since I can't seem to make just an ordinary slingshot, here is a Champ that has been pimped
Paper Phenolic, C-Tech and mosaic pins

and to see it compared to the original Maxim Tactical

Oh my god I love it!!

Will they be available in wood for less than the mesh?

like the pins you have used Nathan, adds a nice touch. Been trying to get some myself for a while but they are £12 for about 3", just too expensive.

They are both real nice slingshots

As soon as I decide on a slingshot to purchase from you Nathan, you keep giving me more to decide from! Love it!

Really nice, i love smaller ss too, they look amazing

They will be available in the black shown in the first photo very soon.
In order for them to have the holes in the fork tips and be made from wood, it would require a composite core and that in and of itself would make it quite expensive.

It's hard to find new words to the work of nathan, each slingshot that comes out of his shop is a work of engineering art, excellent in all respects.

 

[reecemurg]

They are lovely
How much monies would the second pic be ??

 

[Dayhiker]

Man, the cool factor on those is stratospheric! Look good with your Harley gear, yeah!

... Hey, there's an idea, Nathan. Why don't you contact Harley Davidson and see if you can cut a deal to make official H. D. slingshots? What the heck? They make H.D. knives and stuff...

 

[WILD BILL]

Looks like a perfect choice to WIN the Summer nationals!

Jeesh. Just seeing this now. I just received a Maxim Champ as part of a trade and it is THE SHAPE.

I wonder if they even make customs to order anymore.
