I don't have this actual kit but I use this exact same setup other than one thing. I find it better to just use another oval biner for the multiplier in case u have to reset the multiplier a few times to get the tension u want.
When I'm done setting my line I like to only have about a foot of the line lost due to the tension system so that's why I usually have to reset the multiplier a few times.
Very quick and easy setup though. Highly recommend this!
PS: You can probably make this on your own for cheaper if you're a penny saver.

Great starter kit. Easy to set up by myself with the extra large ring and carabiner. No issues so far and would recommend this kit to anyone who wants to stay away from the ratchet tensioning systems. The p2 multiplier might be necessary for some, but I have found it easy enough to get the tension I want by myself at 60 ft length and chest high.
Easy to use and fun. if you are trying to move away from ratchets this is the way to go
best general purpose/travel slackline kit I've used

Very nice kit. Easier to setup and get more tension than the old triple wrap primitive method I've been using. The webbing is quite smooth under foot so it's just taken some time to get used to the little bit of slip. rnAll up its the best general purpose/travel slackline kit I've used. rnCheers
I really like the quality and simplicity of this kit. This is my first non-ratchet set up and thought I would be intimidated but the included directions were very helpful. I needed a helper to help me tension the line without the p2 multiplier kit. This kit is really a great transition for me away from a ratcheted 2 inch line and am very pleased so far!
Nice. Very cool this starter kit is easy to assemble and the instruction manual that has to download the site is easier still, I had no trouble to assemble the equipment, recommend.
This is the best basic slackline setup i have come across. I currently run a slackline group out of Chicago and this is my go to set-up. The webbing and biners are quality, the length is beyond adequate and the principles learned in using this set-up extend far into the future for your slacklining practice. If you have any doubts about purchasing this set-up, put these aside because you will have no doubts once you get up on this line.rnrnMike Matrejek

First off, excellent website. I ordered the primitive kit on Tuesday and it arrived Yesterday, it's awesome when you don't have to wait long for a new toy. I do have a question though: the primitive kit comes with 80' of webbing, what's the longest line I can set up with this system?
Question by: Andrew Murray on Oct 3, 2014 8:31:00 AM
I bought this kit a while back, and I loved it. When i first got the kit, i tried the wrap ring method as show in the instruction manual, for the multiplier. I quickly changed that just another carabiner, because it was quicker. would you sell it with 6 carabiners and just the two normal wrap rings?
Question by: joseph schlosser on Jul 21, 2014 7:23:00 AM
I most certainly would! Are you looking to purchase a second kit? If so, it may be best to purchase the components on their own. You will need the following items:
6x Omega Pacific Aluminum Oval Carabiners (http://www.balancecommunity.com/Omega-Pacific-Aluminum-Oval-Carabiner)
2x Small Steel Rings (http://www.balancecommunity.com/small-steel-ring)
2x Simple Anchor Slings (http://www.balancecommunity.com/simple-anchor-sling)
80 feet 1" Slack Spec Tubular (http://www.balancecommunity.com/1-slack-spec-tubular)

Could you make a video of setting up the primitive kit? I followed the instructions in the downloads section but had some difficulties. I think a video would help a lot.
Question by: Vivian Chen on Nov 23, 2014 1:49:00 PM
I will most certainly make a video for this kit very soon (likely after the holiday season). In the meantime, checkout this video from Adam Burtle from NWSlackline: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdDzz5H2VQA
It's very informative and uses the same techniques that are used in our BC Primitive Slackline Kit.

Question by: Kate on Jan 10, 2015 4:13:00 PM
The smallest trees I would recommend using for any type of slackline setup would be 12 inches in diameter (at the location of the anchors). The max tree size that will work with the anchors that are included with this kit is just over 24 inches in diameter.
Answer by: Balance Community (Admin) on Jan 10, 2015 7:53:00 PM
To follow up on my previous question, what are my other options if two 12" trees aren't available?
Question by: Kate on Jan 26, 2015 3:23:00 PM
You can use stakes and a-frames to setup your line anywhere you would like. We do not offer these items in the shop, but you can find them at other places, such as Home Depot. I would recommend making your own A-frames using one of the blueprints from here: http://s301.photobucket.com/user/catalysticproductions/media/Rigging/a-frame-2.jpg.html
