The most amusing thing Ive ever done. I dont know why but I wont stop till I make it across.

Ps: If anyone wants a slackline, but doesnt want to pay that much just buy a ratchet strap. Its the same damn thing without a companies name plastered all over it.

I had some friends who had one in their backyard in college. It was kind of fun, but got boring really, really fast.

The only way i can set it up in my yard using trees makes the line at like chest height which means falling off is actually being catapulted into the ground. Or nutting yourself but that's easy to avoid.

Put my lines above my trampoline (it's in-ground) and it was fun.

I use to take a 1/6 about 8 feel long, put a sinder block in the middle and have someone jump on one side while jumped off the other end. Great wat to practice flips and stuff. Sort of a poor man's slack line but not really.

It's hard as fuck and really frustrating. But at the same time it's kind of fun, glad I own one.

Fun, hard, and terribly boring to watch someone else do.
