Learn Beginner Slackline Tricks Ep. 1 : Buttbounce

[@pippavanel4170]

Thank you for these videos! Just got my line yesterday, I can almost do 3 steps lol but so fun to see what's possible!

[@SistersTape]

Thank you for the step to step tutorial, I've been scared to try this but now I know what to do!

[@flippinozzy537]

My butt hurts ! Almost got it done :D thx for your instruction :)

[@Wish4Fish]

Question, what is your dominant foot? I see you go left leg in front. I seem to be more comfortable with balancing with right leg on the left side of the line and in front. Should I be trying left or just go with what’s comfortable to me? Is there a disadvantage to doing it this way? Is there a reason that you are teaching the left leg in front? Thank you very much.

[@pedrobordim7972]

Hey Wish4fish, you should try what is comfortable for you! Benni is used to do tricks with the left foot in front.

[@Clarke1982]

Thank you! Great content and well explained/filmed. :)

[@e.r___2060]

thanks so much this taught me how to but bounce and later on safety flip.

[@callumpero6030]

Honestly I’d be scared that the line would break

[@GutmaNir]

Is it safe to try the trick on a standard slackline? Or do you have to get a trickline?

[@gibbonized]

You can start learning basic tricks on a normal slackline. Nevertheless you will quickly realize that you want more bounce and therefore need a better slackline set up. If you start appliying more tension in your slackline, always install a back up on your ratchet.

[@ellietamura6983]

Do I need a special type of slack for tricks? I got this Gibbon but it says max 150KG. I weight 80ish and kinda feel that I could break it.

[@gibbonized]

Hi Ellie, most of our slackline have a very high safety factor, nevertheless, depending how old is your slackline you should be careful when applying higher tension. In any case, you can use all our slackline set to start learning basic tricks. Then when you want to jump higher or get moe amplitude, you should move on more adapted gear.

[@finnprice661]

what do you think 150kg means

[@-aeshe-4951]

Hi, what material are the slacklines with the bounce, is it just a specialised polyester or u gotta get nylon ones for bounce ? Rec

[@FREDERICSOUSAS]

Thankyou!

[@santosromeroreyna2229]

So, i have the bad habit of “dabbing” what can i do to improve that?

[@gibbonized]

A good tip to avoid dabbing is to always keep the closest leg from the line straight, then you engage the movement with the other leg by just pushing your knee up and straightening your leg paralelle to the ground when going down. Start training this motion without jumping above the line, just from the sitting position and never touching the ground. Once you feel confortable with the motion, try to generate more amplitude. I hope that those small tips help. We will consider making a new video about this subject ;)

Nice!

[@barbicoh]

The biggest question is how to prevent the slackline from hitting your balls if you for example miss stepping on the line.

[@human_4real]

That's the neat part, you don't!

[@Sidekix9o]

Du hättest den Pfahl durch die Hand rutschen lassen sollen 😅✌️

[@Matiasepulveda]

Yeaaah 🏋️‍♀️

[@marekmatuska6302]

Hi. Question, when I learn butt bounce, next day I have quite a problem to sit because my ass hurts. Is it just me because I do something wrong or is this a normal when you learning because of long sessions and repetitions.

[@gibbonized]

Hi Marek, this is normal at the beginning, but no worries your ass will get use to it fast. An extra tip could be to use bicycle short under your pant at the beginning.

[@imagine7005]

Ich fände es cool, wenn du auch mal Videos auf deutsch machen würdest.

[@miranda_94]
