Christopher Jarratt vs Sebastian Bergne

A bit of a David vs Goliath firing showdown going on here (me being David..... help!).


"Up for grabs is a chance to own the winner of this minor showing-off contest.So, without further ado…. this weekend we’ll pit the honed and toned athleticism of Sebastian Bergne’s ‘BANDIT’ against the solid sturdy gumption of Christopher Jarratt’s ‘SLINGSHOT’ in a battle of firing skills including; accuracy, distance, impact, and blammo (not sure what that is yet, but we’ll think of something)."


If you’d like to take a punt at securing yourself the winner, each a fine example of British design and fun, then email Spunique with your name and a contact number HERE. The winner will be selected at random on Monday 17 October.

YCN show review

Firstly I would like to say Thank You to all that took the time out to come and visit my show at YCN. Below are a few shots (no pun intended) of the show over the last two weeks. The slingshot firing range proved a great success with over 500 paintball's getting blasted into the wall in the first week alone! I can't wait to do something similar again.

 If you missed the show, and still want to see the slingshots, fear not. The Slingshots will be staying in the YCN Shop HERE.

Take a shot at YCN

As part of this year's London Design Festival we are delighted to welcome Christopher Jarratt and his extra-ordinary hand made slingshots to YCN at 72 Rivington Street. You can buy them online here too.

Christopher has produced an exclusive special edition of 30 slings and three accompanying big ones to form the centrepiece of our window display.

All are available for sale both at 72 Rivington Street and online, and there's a "try before you buy" firing range in store, where you can test your aim and see what a paintball does to a wall when fired out of a hand crafted slingshot. Safety glasses provided.

The show runs from Saturday, 17th – 25th September with a Private View on Tuesday 20th September. For more information or press "shots" please email camilla@ycnonline.com or call +44 (0)20 7033 2140.
