Slackline Industries Aggro Line
The Aggro Line from Slackline Industries is the ultimate line for jumps and bounces – with the 100ft length, it becomes really powerful when tightened up. The rigging is quick and easy; however, its disadvantage is a higher price.
Slackline Industries Trick Line
Thanks to the thinner and more flexible webbing, the Trick line is more live and bouncy – and that makes it perfect for all kinds of jumps and similar stunts. It’s also really easy to set up.
Slackline Industries Play Line
The Play line made by Slackline Industries is designed mainly for kids and slacklining beginners. The webbing is less stretchy and uses a rubber grip so it’s easier to keep balance – plus an additional help line is included.
Slackline Industries Baseline
The Baseline made by Slackline Industries is a quality slackline kit. Very easy to use, not expensive and ready to satisfy everyone’s needs – beginners, kids and even advanced slackliners.
