SlacklifeBC Progression Plan

Starter > Longer > Further > Higher

The SlacklifeBC Progression Plan is for people who want to start slacklining and who already have the goals to go longer and maybe even higher.  Cost effective and designed to provide you with the gear you need now, while minimizes duplicate, wasted and unused gear in the future.

Step 1:  Choose Your level

Level 1

STARTER

Begin your slackline journey with this easy to set up 1″ Primitive kit.  This kit includes everything you need to set up a 25m slackline.  The 60m Polyester webbing, steel carabiners, shackles and more are easily upgraded to let you walk even longer as your skill level increases. 

Level 2

LONGER

Continue walking longer as you progress with the “Longer Slackline kit”. Level 2 of the SlacklifeBC Progression Plan, the Longer Kit is excellent for beginner and intermediate slackliners who have aspirations of one-day highlining.  The “Longer kit”, is a modified Primitive-Pro kit allowing you to easily set up a 40m slackline.  The 44kN Bomber Forged Steel ring, steel Carabiners, and pulley set will be essential when rigging your own highlines at level 4.

Level 3

FURTHER

Take your slacklining further, rig full length, tight or loose, your choice with the “Further Slackline Kit”.  Level 3 of the SlacklifeBC Progression Plan, the Further Kit is excellent for intermediate level slackliners.  As you get more serious, the gear required gets more involved.  The Weblock, line Grip, and pulley are essential gear for any serious slackliner and will allow you to set up a slackline of almost any length, clean, without the extra weight of pulleys or a primitive setup.  

Level 4

HIGHER

Test your skills and your nerves with the “Higher Slackline Kit”.  The final level of the SlacklifeBC Progression Plan, the Higher kit is a complete highline setup allowing you to rig a highline up to 50m long on either Nylon or Polyester Webbing.  This kit includes and makes use of every piece of equipment from all the previous levels and leaves you prepared for any slacklining situation from walking in the park to flying in the air.

Step 2: Level UP!

As you progress, Level Up and always have the gear you need!

Level 1 – 2

Level 2 – 3

Level 3 – 4

No Wasted Gear!

The most cost-effective way to start slacklining and progress, slowly building your skills and your gear list.  From beginner to expect, the gear you need now, and in the future!  See how every piece is reused
