HOWTO: setup a multiplier to get your slackline really tight

[likewhatevergirl]

What thickness is the cordette you're using?

What do you think is max length with this system pulling solo with only 130lbs??

[somebodyelse5]

I think attaching that cord with a clove hitch would be better than a girth, in reality it probably doesn't matter, but just a suggestion. Curious is you have a reason for girth vs clove hitch?

Also, do you ever worry about tri-loading any of the biners? looks like you have a pretty shallow angle between the ends of the sling so the tri-load affect looks minimal, but i have seen lots of videos with extreme tri-loading and no one seems to worry about it.

great vid... how do you take tension off when its time to go home?

I may be tightening a little more than you, but when I try to reset the girth hitch its damn near impossible. I ended up having to wrap it around 3 carabiners for it to loosen after a strong tug. Any ideas on how else to solve this problem?

[Tosaith]

Cool but I don't understand one thing? Why does the slackline not loosen up!? Is it because de slackline locks itself at the carabiner set in the middle of the cord?

I'm about to buy myself my set so I just wanna get informed about everything befor doing so! :)

Thx man for the tut already, just need to know how this holds together! :D Cool!

@Tosaith watch the primitive setup video. /watch?v=MdDzz5H2VQA pay attention at 3:02 that's the trick that prevents it from loosening.

What type of "knot" did you use to keep your cordalette together in a nice ball?

[xellsys]

great videos :)

how do you safely lose the tension on this system? I'm about to set up my equipment, but I cant figure out how you are singlehandedly going to open that ellington again.

[UrbanClimbingKid]

@xellsys pull the opposite way

[uthikoloshe]

Man thats cool. Whats even cooler is the metal thing where the lin start... I dont know what it is calledbut i want one!! If you were walking along the cord towards this guy, it would be the first metal object encountered. How is that connected?

[ManUAdict]

how much cord do you have here?? Im about to make a new line with this system and trying to judge how much i need.

Thank you for these very informative videos. By far the best how-to clips available that I've seen.

[DropChop69]

Pretty helpful but why not just bring two more biners and make the mech. advantage on the original one? Do the cord/pulleys have less friction than just threading the webbing through biners? I just put in the friction locker after a couple more turns. Hahahaha my post is so unclear.

[fetymann]

@DropChop69 yes, the only friction you want is the loop under the other to hold the webbing from loosening. See the primitive setup video. Any more biners then it wouldn't be efficient when pulling. I went and got two Campbell 2" fixed pulleys SKU# 5308002 that look similar to these at Ace Hardware for $10 each, and two 3/4" snap links for $5 each, SKU# 5040498. From REI similar looking pulleys are $15 each.

[RootbeerNINJA]

where can you get the pulleys? do most climbing/outdoors shops have them?

[bishouji]

@RootbeerNINJA They should definitely have them at a climbing shop. =]

[kawasakikillerr]

great vid, just what i was looking for!

[flyassqbn]

why is the extra sling optional?

[zatoishy]

Thanks man, real helpfull =)
