Montie Gear Summer of Design Comes to An End – Part 1

Earlier in the year we sponsored a student design contest for students in NC and Virginia. Nick Pennington submitted a contest winning slingshot design. We liked his design so much that we invited him to serve as a summer intern at Montie Design and commercialize his design. Nick managed to successfully complete two versions of his design. Look to see both versions in the Montie Gear catalog in time for Christmas.
