    you guys had me at "Check it out on this episode of how not to high..... I mean, the Trickline Collective channel." subscribed. Also cool test! Good to know the backup works. What do you use to measure the tension in the line?

      Thanks!! Couldn't resist. We used two LineScale 2's to get the readings.

    and is this more reason why we should use segmented highlines? easier to rescue and less vertical descent once mainline fails?

    Awesome test! How could you simulate taking a more realistic fall length though? In reality the weight of the person would fall from around twice the leash length in addition to the distance you guys showed in the video. I really think the numbers wouldn't change hardly at all but it would still be nice to see a full length fall as if from a walking person.

      It's likely that the main line would slow and maybe even stop the person whipping before it broke and fell into the backup. If the person whips into the main and it absorbs all of their momentum before breaking at the very bottom of the bounce, this could actually lessen the backup fall.

      agreed Marcus - this is a good test to take, I just don't think the title is correct. This test shows "What would happen if you take a whipper, come to a complete stop, and then the main line fails?" Different from "Main line failure while standing" or "Main line fails while at the bottom of a whipper". very cool stuff regardless.

    Can also do a test with low stretch webbing as back up?

    Sounds like you need to leave less slack in the backup..
