Is the arch on the Starship slingshot arm brace just for looks or does it add some added UMFF to the bullet?

I would say with the Starship forks stretched out that the brace works to take some of the extra torque created off the wrists

When a brace is arched it's usually more comfortable then when straight-fits the top of your wrist better.

The rear arch effect on starships is necessary to allow for the difference between the holding grip position and the relative angle of the forearm in relation to the forward holding grip, which requires the wrist brace extension to be placed slightly lower than the holding grip to ensure a linear holding stance of the starship slingshot relative to the aiming eye (in my case the right hand side eye.

The absence of the arch would result in the wrist and the forearm not being aligned i.e. the wrist of the holding hand would need be angled to the right to allow for the wrist brace to make secure contact with the forearm, with the resulting wrist torsion this implies: not ideal.

The arch effect has no bearing on the actual projectile velocity (at least I don't see why it would).

Hopefully this makes sense... :what:

Yes it does make sense and thank you
