I dont care if some of you griefers think this post ought to be in another forum- you fools should be working!

There's a slackline season?

**Tranquilo** · 04-28-2010, 02:28 PM

1' webbing from REI or comparable. 3 decent weight carabiners.
youtube for how to set it up using just those simple items.

**Ireallyliketoski2** · 04-28-2010, 02:38 PM

I'm all about slacklining.

**digitaldeath** · 04-28-2010, 03:06 PM

**mtskier** · 04-28-2010, 03:10 PM

**digitaldeath** · 04-28-2010, 03:17 PM

open season. set mine up using 6' sections of construction webbing with carabiner like clips on the ends. connected these clips figure 8 style till i had a long slackline. one end goes around a small wall inside and the other goes around the deck railing. hat and vodka optional.

its not always this neat at my slum.

Fucking speechless.

Just go with 3/8 inch rope. And key word is SLACK. You definitely don't want to take in the sack with this set up.

This is a coping strategy for the skier's version of post orgasmic regret - "oh fuck, the snow has melted and I live in Utah."

Unreal....

**Slaag Master** · 04-30-2010, 09:27 AM

i plead the fifth...er liter and a half.

**Sessiøn** · 04-30-2010, 09:34 AM

The more I look at that picture the more gems I find. Weight bench in the dining room?

**go siame thata** · 04-30-2010, 10:47 AM

christmas socks and st. patty's undies. awesome.

**butterscotch** · 04-30-2010, 11:08 AM

nice purse.

is that like 9 old laptops on the counter behind you? and if so, why?

**habituallybored** · 04-30-2010, 11:50 AM

that is the seriously the best picture I've ever seen.

Propane tank and camp pot = check
sunday morning funnies = check
weight bench in the kitchen = check
Plastic duck on the computer speakers on the tv = check
random stuff animal on the wall = check

After the awesomeness of that picture, this is an unimportant hijack.

**butterscotch** · 04-30-2010, 04:57 PM

Agreed. I've come back to this thread like 5 times today. Slaag Master, don't ever delete that.

**MightyQuinn** · 04-30-2010, 06:15 PM

My jaw dropped.
Can't believe some lucky lady hasn't snatched you up yet.

**Slaag Master** · 04-30-2010, 06:26 PM

ok. the purse is full of old locks and keys. i owned a computer store for 16 years and have old junk left over. the duck is ceramic. the stuffed animal is a large mouth bass. look at my pics for mr. duck bass. i never imagined that my slum would be so fascinating to others. well here are a few more pics to round out the slum tour.
