Same zipline for light rigging AND my tie in point

Nothing exciting. I didnt want to crash this little dead tree all over the pool deck/plants/ect so I tied it off to a zipline.
Tree weight about 200 pounds so assumed it was good for my weight and a few little branches that were in the next trees over. I used a bottle tree on the high end and an olive on the low end.
Throwlines were used to set everything.

It was fun and I didnt have to tie into thes scrawny dying talo trees like I always did before.

Thanks whoever I got this idea from. I cant remember who it was but its a GREAT technique for sure.

I wonder if you noticed this on my web site?

Click on the link and scroll down to pick #4.

I actually have video of this in action, but like all other videos, I've got to edit them...

BTW. I liked the video. I'm wondering if the rope bend police will fine you for using only a carabiner for rigging and your climb line.
