Rope Swing!

That looked awesome! Just trying to rack my brains for suitable locations I have access to for something similar!

In fairness its taken us since MOG uploaded his tree swing video to find a suitable location. So around 14 months. Were going to do it in the summer again this time using a higher swing line with a shallower leveling angle so should get a fair bit higher.

Sweet dude, how did you anchor it into the tree? just knots? any tensioners?

Running bowline one end and through a grigri the other which was secured with a stein base anchor sling at 75ft.

i am searching for the next location too. It involves summer, crazy arborists, lots of rope, calculations and cranes:) looks like fun, best setup Ian is 3 trees, then you can jump out one and between the two.

This sounds amazing.

Thats where weve been stumped. Although with some recent discussions we might be able to make a 70ft false drop off point using my Rock E Ufo plate. Climb up into air and drop off into air. Think thats going to do the old mind in letting go. Really look forward to your next one, looked so much fun we had to try it. Did you see the one some kids made off a hill. 100ft on wires.

That sounds like a crazy idea...and I love it!
