Tight Rope Straps

Straps with ratchets are available at home improvement stores or you can find special tree straightening straps at a garden store.

Tight rope straps. Slacklining is the art of balancing and walking on a soft and stretchy 1 or 2 wide strap called webbing. Slack lining is a balance extreme sport that uses nylon webbing stretched tightly between 2 anchor points. Slacklining is different from tight rope walking in that the line is not rigidly taut it. Search for a suitable location to anchor the balance strap.

If you use other anchoring solution. Don t use wire or tight rope as a tree strap as these will damage the bark and potentially kill the tree. Lift the cam on the buckle pull the webbing through and release the cam to hold webbing in place. Make sure that they 7 can sustain loads of more than 1000 kg.

To avoid damage to the material only tighten the balance strap around the trees with a 30 cm diameter approx 1m circumference and maximum of 1 70 m. Slacklining is similar to tightrope walking except with the nylon webbed slackline instead of cable or rope.
