The SlackYard is designed for use in grass and compact soil. It is not designed for use in sand or extremely soft ground types.  

For use with softer ground types, extend your ground anchors and add more screws to each side. For use in hard soil and lawns, try wetting the grass first to allow the screws to drive into the ground. 

Absolutely. In fact, it’s the best way to start. Unlike traditional slacklines that are often high and intimidating, the SlackYard allows you to start just a few inches off the ground. You can set the line very short and tight for maximum stability, then increase the length as your balance improves.

All you need is a standard power drill to drive the screws into the soil. The SlackYard is a complete "all-in-one" system. It includes the heavy-duty A-frames, the GIBBON webbing, high-tension ratchet, and our proprietary ground-screw anchors.  

At its maximum extension, the SlackYard spans 9m and stands 0,43cm tall, providing a full-scale slacklining experience in your own backyard. 

One of its best features is its extreme adjustability. If you have a smaller space, you can easily customize the length by installing the anchors closer together and pulling the extra webbing through the ratchet. The entire system is engineered for portability and ease of use, weighing approximately 15kg, making it easy to pack up for a trip to the park or store away for the winter.

Initial assembly takes about 15–20 minutes. Once you’ve chosen your spot, driving the ground screws takes only a few minutes with a drill. Because it is weather-resistant, most users set it up once at the start of the season and leave it ready for action all summer long. 

Not at all. The SlackBoard is your base, the SlackYard gives you more room to move and explore the flow of slacklining. It offers the same safe, low-height experience you love, but gives you the extra length needed to feel the true "flow" and dynamic movement of slacklining.

Surprisingly, no. Our ground screws are designed to be "low-impact." They function much like an aeration tool; when you decide to move or remove the system, you are left with only a small hole that grass typically recovers from in just a few days. No concrete or digging required.

The SlackYard is engineered for strength and can safely support a single user weighing up to 180 kg

The SlackYard is designed for grass and hard-packed soil. But if your soil is especially soft or wet, you may notice that the anchors start to pull out of the ground slightly. If your soil is particularly sandy or loose, you can increase stability by extending your ground anchor (at least 1 hole must still overlap), and add more screws.

You should increase the height as you increase the length. We recommend the lowest setting for set up of 1-2m long, the second hole for a 3m long slackline, and the third or fourth hole for more than 3m.

We recommend starting with the A-Frames 1m apart. The max distance we recommend with the anchors at their furthest point is 5m. You can easily move them further apart as you feel more comfortable by unscrewing the wooden plate, lowering the A-Frames, and moving them to a new distance. Remember to re-check your anchors and ratchet each time you use the SlackYard.

Yes! You can use the webbing from other GIBBON slackline sets, but they will not be as long as the full length due to the height of the A-frames.
