This video was really helpful to me when I tightened my zipline last weekend. The temporary short cable was way cheaper than a cable grabber for the come along. I hadn't used a come along before so the video showed me how to as well. As he stated, the purpose of the video is to walk you through the process of tightening the cable and building the brake. It was NOT supposed to show you the actual setup of his zipline. The instructions that came with my zipline kit were crap and did not say anything on how to tension the cable which was probably 80% of the total installation. Thanks!
Despite all the negative comments, I do appreciate this video and the information it contained. Wanted to ask if he bought this as a kit or assembled the parts himself, especially the "hang bar" and straps.
peong probably because he has no clue how to actually do it and the only 2 trees he owns makes it run across his driveway. And to do it elsewhere then he might get his clothes dirty or the equipment dirty then he wouldn’t be able to return it all to the store he just bought it from just to make this terrible video with.
I appreciate the information and effort.. but one question/concern. Why so low to the ground? With that much play in the cable won't they hit ground somewhere around the driveway? My kids are 5 and 8, and put their anchor about 5 feet up on a tree. Works perfectly..any lower they'd come in skidding, lol.. just wondering if I'm not computing something. It'd be fun to lower the landing to increase speed! Thanks.
