Ham Hill Midline #2

An hour of clearing brambles and ivy vines

and I was rewarded with the second Ham Hill midline,

Sitting nicely to the right of the first line this new line is 

a few meters shorter but the same height and a lot easier to rig..

Whilst clearing I possibly discovered a new line rigged higher

in the quarry, hopefully spend a day clearing and rigging soon

and will see if it can work..

Hollow Hunter #2

When I first started to look for new lines up the Hollow 

I was quite happy with the new line but after a second rig

I realized that a couple of tree's are too close and the 

line needed to be moved, this was an unwelcome feeling

as this seemed perfect to start with but a whipper into those

tree's might have a bad outcome..

I had intended to use this new line to improve my 32m P.B

but I got distracted with spacenets and quarry hunting so I 

didn't find time to hunt for a new spot for a 40m+ line.. until now

This line is about 40m long (I hope) and has really good exposure,

you can mount safely around 2m out each side and walk-offs are easy

so I'm really stoked to get some training on the go locally so I can start

rigging some quarries in the spring..

Spacenet #2.. Fun²

'Life doesn't care about your plans'

This is a life lesson 2015 has taught me time after time,

 when I first built the psychedelic spacenet I didn't anticipate it 

taking 5 months to actually find the time to rig it..

Braddy Hollow wasn't my first choice when choosing a location

but its somewhere I know well and its an easy place to rig lines quickly,

but even with all our confidence it still took 3 hours to get the line walkable..

I could claim a send on the 8m red leg that Jon is tied into (above) but 

the main line I really wanted to walk was a 35m long white leg you can

see in the photo below, I managed a few steps on the beast but this was only 

my first few attempts and it was nice to just enjoy being outside having fun..

Hopefully there will be more space net fun coming soon :)

Bristol Harbourside Festival

This year Jacob HiHo invited me to perform a little

demo for Cirque Bijou,

Also managed to win the Bristol Slack Jam competition..

The Psychedelic Spacenet

After the first Spacenet I rigged and walked I wanted to create
something bigger and with the Moab Monkeys providing all 
the inspiration I could need I started planning the next one,
To start with I knew I wanted to use 2.5m roundslings for the 
outer edges so after some persuasion I manged to get 4 brand new
black slings for free from Maverick Slacklines..
Next I purchased 500ft of 550 Paracord from Wild Elk and built a 
large wooden frame to weave on, I find it easier to solo weave a net
using a frame as I can move it around and leaning over a horizontal
net quickly hurts my neck and back..

It still needs some final adjustments but it's 98% ready and as soon
as I can it's getting rigged over a coastal highline with 25m legs, 
hopefully I can get it up over water in the next few weeks too..
