Skink   10 #1 Posted December 7, 2021 thinking about getting a Slackline kit for myself for Christmas, it might be okay in the garden but I would love to go to the park with it  There are many great trees in the parks around us that would work really nicely - obviously I would use tree protectors but wonder if anyone has done this, or been challenged by doing so?  What about out in Derbyshire? Underneath Stanage Edge would be an ace spot   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
scottf   21 #2 Posted December 7, 2021 Seen loads of people doing this out and about and never seen anyone challenge them. As you say as long as you use tree protectors then i'd go for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
