the rope is an 11mm static abseiling rope....pretty sure its marlow from memory, although i purchased it a long time ago and the speedling kit rarely comes out, maybe once a year. tensioned it with a tracked chipper. Slings could have been shorter i suppose, but the real issue was the powerline on the other side of the bank which limited where we could have the speedline.
The trees were heavily weighted one side and the owner was concerned about them falling on the power lines.
nice job, which type of rope used for the zipline and how did you tension it?with truck it looks like or chipper? could make the slings a lil shorter on the larger victims to try an get them a bit further up the bank? love the foot acsender, i use one. why reduce beech so much? got to get me one of those head cams, snazzi watch too. brilliant demonstration, 'Steve me old mate' lol
