You’ve never seen this in a nuclear bunker

EARLY ACCESS FILM: I've been dreading editing this episode because it seemed like it would be hard to stitch together without a clear story line but I "threw all the leftovers in the casserole" and it turned out really good compared to my expectations. It was a unique project and worth sharing. This is now the early access film for those who sign up for the emails and the Mile long zipline is the episode that finally goes public.
Store stuff: I got petzl, fixe, and edelrid orders in my possession. I am paying off my credit card every other day because the limit is barely what each purchase is. I'm flying to yosemite for free next time I go with all these points! There is a 50/50 chance I'll share the website password this Saturday with patrons. I want it to be good the first time you jump on it. If you really need anything from those 3 brands NOW, hmu at ryan@slackline.com and I'll see if we can get that to you asap. I'll be doing discounts that might even beat the labor day sales.
I will have broken it off with Extreme Gear by the time you read this and that will be nice to put a bow on that. I had to wait until he was back from his trip and got caught up with orders. That has been weighing on me for 40 days and the letter is very nice. Can't wait until that chapter is officially closed.
Thanks for being awesome!

Engineer here, studying for job interview, this was a perfect problem! The numbers work out nearly perfectly. w/ a 145lb weight in a triangle, the anchor force of 157 - came out to 46.15 degrees! Good eyes! The weight of the webbing and gear would change the angle slightly, 5lbs adds about a degree.
BD order went through today. It's in the mail. I'm very interested in learning international shipping so lets try it.
I'm waiting for the BD order to come in :P Are you going to ship to Europe right away or later?
