Backyard Slacklining

I made a dream come true this last weekend!

I have always wanted to be able to slackline at my home in Portland without having to walk to a park or go anywhere. Further more I have wanted to be able to set up the slackline and leave it up and not have to take it down after I am done.

I haven't been able to do this in my backyard because that is where the badminton court is. But then my neighbor Kate said I could do it in her backyard! And so I did! (Her backyard is right next door!)

Here is what the final product looks like:

The other end of my slackline a-frame set up

I made a video of it in action!

    you did it! Looks totally awesome! watch out though...from the angle of the video it kinda looks like you are close to the treehouse? I don't remember that being the case when I last looked...but I thought I would warn you anyways...just in case you have some beginners who might fall off?
