As someone with absolutely no experience with slacklines, I am very happy with this kit. Our back yard has a spot in the corner that is pretty open and my wife and I have been trying to figure out what we want to do with it. Our home owners association has some pretty strict rules about the height of back yard structures and the size of shed buildings so those options were pretty limited. HOAs are fine and all, but sometimes I feel like they overstep their intended purpose; but that's a rant for another place. Anyway, we decided it would be fun for the growing kids (and for us) to setup a slackline area. Our trees are really only good for a temporary setup so we're planning to install an anchor for one side and will use an established tree on the other. Until that point, we have set it up a few different times to test it out and see how bad we really are at it.Setting up the unit is pretty simple. Again, as I mentioned before, I am completely new to this so the included instructions were nice and explained how to keep the line straight and keep it from twisting and it's nice that you can easily shorten the setup for smaller distances. The main ratchet is easy to use and big enough to be able to put a good amount of tension on the line (side note: a lot of the videos talk about how everyone has a different tension preference, but I've found tighter is better for beginners like me). The set includes everything you would need for a basic setup if you already have secure posts. We've only set up the training line once since it doesn't work well with the trees in our yard but it seems like it will be pretty beneficial once we get our designated area set up. I especially like the extra piece that allows you to not have to hold the training line directly. I haven't quite figured out the best way to do it, but I'm getting there. I think my biggest difficulty there is that I set it up for my kids height so it wasn't very supportive for the height of a full grown adult. If only there was a quick adjustment on my tree, but I digress... I've been using the tree savers because they are easy enough to put on with just the Velcro-type attachment and I've seen what extended use without them can do to a tree. Even though others may not find it important, I will continue to use them and I'm happy they were included. The one thing I wish I had was a good carabiner. I'll have to pick one up that will work with my anchor once I get to that point. I won't really fault this kit for not having one, but you should know it may be necessary to pick up some additional pieces depending on your specific situation. Again, if you have two trees or secure posts, this has enough to get you up and falling down on your own.

Solid slacklining kit. It can be a little confusing to use at first, but once you get it down it's relatively easy to put up and take down quickly. Good quality, sturdy, and fun to use.

Everyone in the family (my, my wife, and my 6 & 8 year old girls) love using the slack line. It's challenging, but I feel like I improve every time I use it (I've had it for about a week).Set up and take down is easy (comes with a bag to put everything in). Set up is probably 5 minutes, take down maybe 10 because I like to wrap the lines up and put everything away neatly. I like that it comes with the tree protectors, and they're pretty easy to set up. The ratcheting mechanism seems sturdy enough. The line holds my weight fine (~ 230). But, it needs to be fairly high to not touch the ground if the trees are close to the full 57' apart. This isn't an issue when it's more like 20-30 feet.The training line is helpful. It gives my girls some confidence while they're doing it and it means that I can just be near them instead of holding their hand. I try not to use it myself and I can stand for a while and take a few steps without falling. But every time I fall off, I want to get back on and stay for longer. It's a lot of fun. I think the learning curve is reasonable because I feel like I've been better every time I get on it (about 5 times in 10 days or so).The original shipment was missing a few components, but the seller (DDRPL) responded very quickly and shipped out a replacement that arrived in no time.

My kids and I had so much fun playing on this slack line! This only reason I didn't give it five stars is because a part of the ratchet got stuck in place. We had to find a tool to pry it apart and take it down. But it is worth the fun, and we can just carry this tool with us.

If your looking for something that involves being outdoors and is fun for the whole family, this is a great product! My kids got it as a Christmas gift and really love the challenge of walking across the imaginary lava pit.However, a word of caution... there is a reason that the instructions say to set up the slackline around knee height. I found this out when I decided to bravely cross the lava pit of doom. I was about midway across when my confidence decided to leave me and my legs began dancing like a wiggly worm hitting the hot pavement. What happened next left me second guessing my decision setting up the slackline around hip height. Both feet went outwards leaving the extremely tension line that was sagging due to my weight to spring up as I was coming down. The sound of the slap was quickly heard before the pain began to surge, and all that was left to do was roll over and fall helplessly into the lava pit of doom. I felt as if my manhood was forever gone as my voice regressed to my teenage years of puberty. My facial expressions changing as I tried to utter "I'm okay" words to my wife who was laughing harder than she's ever laugh in her life. I finally regained my thoughts and slowly developed super powers to crawl out of the lava pit of doom... my children cheering me on.This Christmas will never be forgotten and I owe it all to my lack of reading instructions that came with the Slackline Kit.
