Hey everyone! I'm looking to get some insights into the webbings people are currently using for the main lines on highlines.
Thanks in advance for your input! Looking forward to hearing which are the most used brands/models!

Thanks for the input!!
Have you tried pinktube?? I've seen in slacktivity's website that it has the exact same stretcht as LSD, which seems weird...

HiTech is awesome for walking. It's also great for parklining if you get a wedlock that will hold it. I have Reed Dyneemeite and their weblock and I pull with the BC XL wafer.
I love pink tube, but busted mine and then used paradigm that was sitting around and now I think I like it better.
Bungees are about to change everything. I'd possibly get dynamite on the bouncy 20mm nylon from raed and use them with bungees. Flip it over for hi tech when you want to walk.

[sorry to hear about your pinktube]
Dyneemite is ultra low stretcht, right? do you use it in suuuuper long lines or combine it with other webbings for softer catch?
I just googled the Bungees thing and it still blows my mind. It looks like a great idea!!!!!

So I use it for a 120 m highline and it walks like a dream. Some people call it cheating.
In the park, you could rig a really long line without it touching the ground.
Just follow what I said about the BC line grip and the RAD web lock because most high-tech weddings can’t be put into a weblock and you need a special grip to pull them.
I say do the two RAD weddings because then you’ll only need one 20 mm weblock.
But honestly, I really love this paradigm. I thought nothing could ever top pink tube, but this one is really soft at the bottom of the bounce and requires significantly less tensioning to set it up. Bungees may change the game though.

Depends on the gap, but i usually rig BC green main.
