Check before every use
• Is the product damaged?
• Is the surface below free from pointy
or hard objects?
• Is the balance band secured at a maxi-
mum height of 50 cm?
• Is the protective cover pulled over the
ratchet?
• Is the ratchet closed and secured?
• Is the balance band twisted and is it
securely tensioned?
Notices
• The balance band is under great ten-
sion when assembled. Uncontrolled,
excessive and careless movements can
result in falls. Do not perform tricks or
flips!
Especially instruct children of the
dangers!
• The more the band sags, the more dif-
ficult it is to balance.
• We recommend beginners use the aux-
iliary rope. It will help you maintain
your balance. Optionally, a second
person may support the person bal-
ancing.
Basics
Mounting the balance band
1 . Stand at the end of the slackline opposite
the ratchet . Place one leg on the ground up
against the balance band so that your leg
is touching the balance band, allowing it to
minimise swaying to some extent .
2 . Place your other leg on the balance band,
straighten the bent leg and use it to push your-
self to an upright position . Shift your centre of
gravity, to bring it over the rope and put your
other foot one step ahead .
3 . Focus on a fixed point at the end of the bal-
ance band . Doing so, rather than looking
down at your feet, will make it easier to keep
your balance .
Walking along the balance band
1 . Focus on the fixed point and carefully place
your feet one in front of the other . As you do
so, keep your arms outstretched; this makes it
easier to keep your balance .
Turning on the balance band
1 . Reposition your feet gently to turn 180 de-
grees to the left or the right .
2 . If your left leg is in front, turn to the right; if
your right leg is in front, turn to the left .
3 . As soon as you have turned, return your focus
to the fixed point as quickly as possible .
Beginners
1 . We recommend for beginners to position
themselves as described in the basics using the
support of another person .
2 . When walking and turning on the balance
band use the auxiliary rope or another person
for support .
Advanced users
Only perform the exercises for ad-
vanced users once you are proficient
in the basics. Do not overestimate your
skills.
1 . With a little practice you will be able to walk
backwards as well as forwards on the slack-
line . Keep your balance by extending your
arms .
2 . Position yourself on the balance band . One leg
is bent, your foot on the balance band, your
arms outstretched . The other leg is straightened
next to the slackline for counterbalance . Place
the foot of the bent leg closer to your body .
From this position you straighten your leg to
push yourself to a standing position .
