    Great achievement, and even longer ones will be done. No doubt. Started slacklining six months ago, in winter. Rodeo is my favorite one, love to get that flowy feeling swinging sideways.

    insane & inspring :)
    Last year, I canceled slacklining due to lack of success going further than 25 metres.
    The videos around Slacktivity helped me to come back to this amazing sport.
    Now 50 metres longline is the next goal.
    Keeping it up :)

    Congratulations! But what about the anchors points? How many spanset did you use? And wich was the tension of the line??

    In a slackline setup, what's the lower, less-tight part (underneath the main tape) for?

    • @SlacktivityCh
      @SlacktivityCh  5 років тому

      It's the backup-webbing. It has wind-dampening effects - without that the line would be almost impossible to walk in slight wind. And in newer set-ups it is a functioning backup again - in case that the main-line would fail you would be caught by that second webbing.

    Congratulations. Hard work. Can you explain how the line broke? Was it hit by a lightning, or what. Is it possible that wind broke it?
    Do you suspect it was due to over tensioning? Did the material got tired?
    It is crucial to know this precisely.

    • @SlacktivityCh
      @SlacktivityCh  5 років тому +1

      It was electrical dis-charge that broke the line. Not wind. Not over-tensioning. And yes, of course it is crucial to know that precisely. The probability that it was electrical dis-charge is 99%+.

  • @LeSpocky

    Looked like he started 10m after the starting fix point and fell 20m before the end fix point. To many beginners even just 20m are so hard and we often see people touching the trees and just count it if they touched them on both ends without falling. So how are the rules for "you did it"? How many meters from the fix point can you skip, and still say it's a success?

    • @maximeg3659
      @maximeg3659 7 років тому +7

      It is dangerous to walk close the the anchor, because the ground is very close. If you do a leechfall (complet fall into the rope that's holding you) or if the main line fail at that moment, you could eventually touch the ground. So it's widely accepted to do the last meter by crawling.

    • @LeSpocky
      @LeSpocky 7 років тому +2

      Okay that makes perfect sense to me. You may have noticed I have no experience with highlines. ;-) On the ground there's usually no big difference in risk near the fixpoint, but I see you don't want to fall on the rocks near the anchors of a highline. Thank you for the explanation. :-)

    • @fips001
      @fips001 6 років тому +1

      if you have long lines on the ground there is also a huge difference. I usually don't walk the ends (last 10 m or so) of lines longer than 100 m because I don't want to fall from 3 m on the ground.

    • @LeafLifeAndBriar
      @LeafLifeAndBriar 6 років тому +7

      Doing the math- 1210 mtrs line. He skipped 30 mtrs. that is 2.5%. That mean on a 20 mtrs line he walked 19.5 mtrs. I would consider that legit.

    Man I just can't get a grasp on the efficacy of a backup line being SO loose! What is the disadvantage of taking at least a little more slack out of the crazy huge backup loops?

    • @SlacktivityCh
      @SlacktivityCh  4 роки тому +1

      It did not break because of the high forces but due to electricity dis-charge in a thunderstorm. Similar to a lightning stroke.

      Why that? I honestly would get bored to only walk. The single moment is not that intense. You keep walking for over an hour and you need to stay relaxed for that. Music is a good way for that :-)
