Fabric made of polyester with 7% stretch Slacklining-specific design.
Hello Jon, bouncing on a slackline is a more advanced skill, but if you already know how to do it or want to improve, this slackline is a great option. The longer the distance between the two trees, the more bouncier the line becomes. As you improve, the overhead training line will bounce, allowing you to use it to aid in balance.
It was only a matter of putting it up with red dyed hands! I believe it was the thinner training line, which I purchased last year but have only recently installed, so I'm not sure if the problem has been resolved.
The 1" training line is intended for use as an overhand line only; it should not be used as a slackline.

However, it necessitates a significant amount of effort. We all slackline several times a day and have developed some engineering skills as a result of this thing. There are no trees in our area. br>br> We don't have much in the way of nearby options. So. We used 4x4s, cables, turnbuckles, and concrete to construct a slackline arena. Each pole is made up of two 12 foot tall 4x4s that have been buried three feet deep in concrete and gravel. Each end has three anchors, which are also 4x4s that are 3 feet deep in concrete and are 5 and 7 feet from the poles (see photos). Guy wires connect each anchor to the uprights, and turnbuckles keep everything tight. Another cable was run overhead, and a couple of triangular sails were suspended. We had to adjust the tension on a regular basis, but we were able to build a slackline gym out of 4x4s. br>br>I've included a few photos that you might find useful if you decide to try this on your own. The poles are under a lot of tension from the slackline, and a single guy wire on each end isn't enough (we tried). This is the culmination of a month of testing and building. If I did it again, I would use 8x8 or 10x10 uprights instead of the twin 4x4s, but other than that, this design works great. br>br>We installed a couple of solar security lights on top of the poles, allowing for nighttime slacklining. It also appears to be quite appealing. If there's enough interest, I'll make a video with more information.
It's one of the best investments I've ever made. The slack line has been a summer favorite for both kids and adults. I've had it up full-time and am impressed with how well it's held up. Despite being exposed to sunlight all summer, the ratchet's weather-resistant coating has shown no signs of rusting or weathering, and the line itself has barely faded. Setting up and dismantling the line is a breeze. The included training line piques the interest of onlookers and acts as a good motivator for those who are hesitant to try it out. My two children, ages 5 and 2, have been playing with it for the entire summer and have shown no signs of boredom. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase, and if/when this one wears out, I'll buy another right away.
It's a great activity for people of all ages and abilities to participate in. I strongly advise you to do so. It also takes only a few minutes to set up. My only complaint is that the coloring on the line has dyed our hands and feet red; we don't mind, but it's something to be aware of.
This is an excellent item. My slackline is fantastic, and the packaging is excellent, as is the carry bag that comes with it. I followed the instructions closely, but I also watched a number of YouTube videos for additional guidance. I've had a couple of opportunities to use my slackline, and it's fantastic. It's simple to set up and take down. Get the training line kit; it'll come in handy. The ratchet is also very useful. I noticed some people complaining that it doesn't work or that it's fragile; it's perfectly fine; I believe those people were misusing it. I'm excited to put it to more use!.
I bought this for my children for Christmas last year, and the quality is excellent. I had no trouble setting it up. After our dog chewed up the slackline a few months later, I emailed the ZenMonkey support team to inquire about purchasing a replacement line, not knowing if they would sell just that piece. They stated that they would look into their spare parts inventory and contact me. They said they could send me one for free if I wanted it. All I had to do was pay for shipping, and I was overjoyed, as were my children. Thank you, ZenMonkey, for being such a wonderful company with fantastic customer service.
I needed to replace a Gibbon slack line kit that I had been using for years. The ZenMonkey slackline kit is half the price and much nicer. It takes only a few minutes to set up, and the line has just the right amount of stretch. Everything you could possibly need is included in the kit. This line is appropriate for people of all ages and skill levels.
Because there were no reviews, I was hesitant to order it at first. But as I was scrolling through the options, I came across this one, which had a really cool design and came with everything I needed to get started, so I decided to give it a try. And it's a good thing I did because this slackline is fantastic! It's of excellent quality, and the instructions for getting it up and running are very clear. It also comes with good packaging that can be used for storage, and it is a great price. br>Purchase it for yourself. It is a decision you will not be sorry for making.
I'd like to begin with a comment on the packaging, as I appreciate materials that are fully recyclable! ZenMonkey, thank you for considering the environment! The instructions are then given, which are short and to the point! For a newbie like myself, the numbered pictures and arrows make setup a lot easier. The product itself is of excellent quality and performs admirably, so I gave it five stars for all of these reasons. I'll be keeping an eye out for what these guys come up with next, and if it meets my requirements, I'll buy it again.
