Beginners guide to rigging.......

[Adam Bourne]

where's that demo tree adam?

 

i take it its the same tree in the other shots?

 

 

something i've not really used before but have thought of... would it be possible to have a floating anchor between TWO trees, suspended in mid air?

(nice work, keep it up:thumbup:)

 

 

Thanks rob, if your this way some time i'll take you for a tour of the whole estate there are some wonderful tree's. the Cedar in the photo's is a baby compared to another in the park.

 

what you speak of is a highline anchor where you have a static line level from one tree to another then the pulley and rigging line is able to float between the 2 trees, i think James hoddy did a post on this a while back but i think he used it to anchor him self rather than the rigging system.

 

let me see if i can't go find a link for you.....

 

Glad you like the thread though mate....

BOOOM! There it is! I'll take that thank you very much

 

Can't see that happening again in my lifetime....

 

Whilst that is flattering, I have a lot of weak areas! it WILL happen again, just dont recomend holding ones breath till it does:lol:

 

Anyone at ANY level can learn, and certainly the likes of me, even the top boys can learn a thing or two (I wasnt talking about me there by the way!)

We all know the score Tony... even the infallible can be fallible occasionally

James have you got a link to the thread as if my memory serves me correct it has a diagram on it which would be usefull to show a highline configuration ....

I fail a lot!
