Keep sucking until you suck less.

It's a great exercise for practicing body awareness. focus on keeping your center of gravity above the line. Use a mat or practice over soft ground.

Also helps to practice with friends, for both moral and literal support

Start low. Just a couple of inches off the deck while you are on it. I watch folks start with them 3 feet off the deck, falling off is a pain. As you are getting used to it you can step off or put a foot down. You will be falling off by the way. Bali boards are a balance thing but not the same.

Have watched some videos about slackliners recently. Wow, that´s crazy what some of the pros do there :openmouth: But I guess also for beginners and low above the ground an interesting overland related recreation activity, because gear for it does not take so much space in the rig, right?
