Pharaoh

Description

Say hello to the all new Pharaoh webbing, a 20mm polyester webbing that has features from both our modern Feather PRO webbing as well as our classic Aero webbing. Pharaoh is a mid-stretch polyester webbing that is extremely soft and comfortable on the foot as well as moderately stretch for an amazing experience on the line.

Coming in at 49 g/m and 27 kN, this webbing is great combination of low weight and medium strength, resulting in a great webbing for a huge variety of lengths of lines. The mid-stretch ensures low peak forces and a comfy walking experience.

The orange and blue colors provide excellent contrast from each other making it ultra easy to spot twists on longer gaps.

Made in the US.

Lightweight & Strong

A strength-to-weight ratio that is built for big highline projects

Pharaoh weighs in at with a strength of . This gives Pharaoh quite a high strength-to-weight ratio, packing the maximum punch in the smallest package. This ensures an easy hike in and a confident walk on the line.

Pharaoh's design uses a lightweight structure that maximizes the strength of the yarn used to weave the webbing by keeping them as straight as possible. This design, coupled with the narrow width of 20mm gives Pharaoh a fantastic profile, high strength, and low weight. This helps keep the webbing soft on the foot and hand while having all the specs desired for a high quality highline webbing.

Four-Zone Construction

Optimized layering and zoning for improved abrasion resistance and handling.

Similar to our Feather PRO webbing, Pharaoh's core makes up the Strength Zone, where the majority of the strength comes from. Built using high tenacity polyester fibers, this zone has been purely optimized for raw strength to get the most out of these quality PES fibers.

A protective layer surrounding the core and pillowing, the Protective Zone is built from less strong but more abrasion resistant Polyester fibers to ensure the sensitive core is protected while the line is under tension. The Protective Zone sees part of the load while tensioned, but contributes less to the overall strength of the webbing compared to the Strength Zone. However, the majority of the abrasion resistance of Pharaoh is a direct result of this tightly woven Polyester layer.

An innovative and sleek way of make twist detection a breeze. The Bi-Color zones have opposing colors on the edges of both faces as well as the face itself to make it easy to spot any twists along the length of the line. These colored edges and faces are made from high-tenacity, highly abrasion-resistant, solution-dyed, Polyester yarns to give the best of all worlds on one of the most sensitive parts of your slackline webbing.

Similar again to our Feather PRO webbing, Pharaoh has Pillowing Zones. These zones are built from polyester fibers as well, but are woven in a way that they are under less tension compared to the body of the webbing. This allows the edges to be pliable and malleable while the line is tight, which gives the edges a pillow-feel, molding under your hands and feet when you grab and walk on the line. This feature makes Pharaoh a true pleasure to interact with.

Stretch

Achieving the perfect blend of responsiveness and stability with Pharaoh's innovative weave.

Pharaoh is constructed from 100% high-quality polyester fibers, a material known for its low stretch and predictable performance under tension. Unlike traditional polyester webbings that can feel stiff and unresponsive, Pharaoh's specialized weave pattern introduces mechanical stretch that enhances its dynamic feel without compromising walkability. The result is a smooth, controlled stretch that offers a lively experience while remaining easy to manage.

Pharaoh's performance is optimized within the standard highline tension range of 1 - 6 kN (225 - 1,350 lbf). While high-stretch webbings can be harder to rig, Pharaoh strikes a balance: enough stretch for smooth movement while maintaining the efficiency of polyester-based webbings.

Due to the lower stretch of Pharaoh, it is recommended to only use it for highlines longer than 50m.
