Rigging a slackline for big gap...

Those people that slackline big gaps, I'm guessing they are tied in, to the line. Dont you use webbing on these slacklines? I thought falling on webbing you make a bad shock load? My point is how do you really set this up? Oh yea, you people are awesome.

Some are tied in, some are not.

Yes, walk on a tesioned 1" webbing.

Yes, falling on webbing makes a bad shock load (the standard is 3 pieces of webbing taped together).

Paintinhaler, I am writing an article on this very subject, per Trevor's request, it will be out shortly.
