- Want to learn how to set up a trickline with ratchets? You are limited to length with two ratchets but this is how you do it.

I have made tubes out of big beach towels (cut them in half along the length, then so two long tubes). Towel tubes move with the bounce on lower levels of tension, which means no webbing slipping off tree pro.
I always wanted to know how to set a trickline with pulley system and what do you need to do it. I've seen photos of the the trickline with pulley system but never seen the other side and how to actually do it.
Thank you kindly!
I’m told friends are awesome. More great content.
Bang! Popping the ratchet was crazy. That's a crap ton of force. :) good video all! Thanks!
I wonder if this crazy popping also messes up the ratchet teeth that were holding the load? There must be some tectonic pressure when the ratcheting plate is dragged off the edges of those teeth
@@iura0 once you disengage the teeth, the whole drum just spins (crazy fast) so you dont damage them .. but you damage the winding drum (and the webbing)
@@iura0 I reckon that with that jerking motion it unlocks fast enough for the teeth not to deform.
I've soft released ratchets by engaging the teeth, then backing it up a couple teeth by holding the rear plate out. Better or worse?
thought of this too. It also seems possible to use the trick to decrease the tension if you have accidentally over-tighten the line.
I know nothing about tricklines or slacklines except for this channel, but that's how you have to release highly tensioned cargo transport straps.
yes, agreed. ratchets can deffinitely be let out one tooth at a time if you want. as long as you can still pull the handle enough to take the pressure off the teeth
Great video! I have just two questions.
Is a soft release for Highline which is less wide than the one in this video good also for Tricklining?
In General, Is it ok to use equipment that overlaps between Highline and Trickline and not buy double from the same things?
I'm so surprised that you bury the tail inside the ratchet.
I usually have a pretension problem, how do you solve it?
Right now I plan to create sort of a primitive setup to pretension it and then remove the primitive.
I just bought a boss line trick line kit with like 82_100ft line are you saying this is too long to trick line even though they sell it as a trick line kit???
At 14 min that looks like a stainless shackle. In my experience those are never rated high enough for this kind of system. What is that one rated for and where is it from?
That looks to be a M8 or M10 shackle. Here in Europe you can get them at a hardware store for 1-2€ and they hold about 30kN and 45k respectively. Obviously not ppe or otherwise rated, but what does it matter for a trickline?
Is GGBY happening this year?
Just so you guys know, you can softly release a ratchet strap.
how?
@@alessandro2075 by ratcheting a little tighter, releasing the bottom ratchet plate, let it out a little, repeat.

Question to the community. Off topic I know. But if your the first to walk a new line. Is it called a FA? I’m a climber so I’m curious lol
FW? First walk?
@@crowlsyong i was thinking first across....thoughts???
First across
This video definitely lives up to it's name....I don't understand the first 11 minutes...like you can just put the non-loop end of the trickline up through one ratchet and down through the other, mitigating the issue of shoving the loop through the skinny ratchet slot or having to put a bite through the ratchet. Then you get it all twisted but....it's pretty clear it's twisted...takes you a solid minute or two to notice, and that's after it's tightened.
Am I missing something? Or have you just never really setup slacklines with ratchets?
Those ratchets have a way to add slack one click at a time, with total control. No need for that extra black strap for controlled release.
Wait how?
Spanset is a brand name, what you put around the tree is a sling
What is a brand ratchet ????
at 15:15. i know it's been 3 years since this video but he is wrong. You can release a ratchet 1 knotch at a time to give more slack.
yall would have a heart attack if you saw some of the extremely unsafe releases of extreme tension I have seen as a welder/fitter lol rigging is no joke. Underwater welders do some crazy stuff rigging submersible habitats (imagine the forces of holding a 6x6 or 8x8 room 75' deep in the ocean filled with air.... You ever tried to hold a balloon or ball under in the pool?)
It always amazes me the forces us soft little humans have been able to tame.
Even something as simple as pulling a truck stuck in mud can get you killed real fast - just heard about a fatality not long ago where the guy had a drop-down hitch and was trying to pull a 1/2 or 3/4 ton truck out of a bad mud hole - hitch failed and went straight at the driver in the stuck truck as fast as a 25lb cannonball - took his head clean off, poor sob didn't even have time to duck. Probably one of those moments where you know you're about to get real hurt and can't do anything to stop it.. Perception of time slows down in moments like that.
When rigging accidents happen they can cause extreme devastation in an instant. Never trust equipment you don't know for a fact is rated for the forces at play, for your family's sake. Use the proper equipment - ratchets and straps/chains/cables/ropes are tools; tools are designed for specific jobs - don't trust you life with something designed for something else.
People saying you don't need the soft release strap are right. You can release the ratchet just like releasing a car e-brake (the hand lever kind, not foot kind). Crank it a tiny bit, release the ratchet, slowly collapse the handle, reengage ratchet... repeat until tension is low enough to safely pop it
How much tension did you achieve with two ratchets?
if they're the same ratchets you won't get any extra tension from adding another ratchet.. you're limited by the force you can input with the mechanical advantage offered by the handle/spindle. You need to add a pully to exceed the tension you can reach with a single ratchet
