Highlining 101: Section 4 of 7 - Using your highline gear

Jan 7, 2023

Welcome to the original reason I started this channel… Highlining 101 or “How to use a highline that is already set up.” This is 80 short videos squished into 6 categories and 7 videos. You can skip along in the chapters in the timeline or watch the whole thing. If you are a pro, we recommend you share this series with new highliners before you take them out for their first adventure. This also would be great if festivals recommended this to anyone arriving that might have never done it before.

We overkilled this project, but it turned out great. We had a lot of great help because we wanted to make sure we included everything and didn’t miss important stuff. We may make a followup 8th video and update the textbook from the feedback you give us. Thank you to Dan Walsh from https://slackline.us/, Daniel Ristow, Rocco Fucetola, Cam Peters, Aaron Free, Kyle Lovett, Nick McPherson, Cristiana Rodrigue, João Portales, Leonard Ferrari for all the help!!!
