Upline Techniques

Here are some videos to review some different things involving uplines. Please make sure that you have someone well experienced in suspensions show you these techniques. These videos are for review purposes only.  The ring I am using is from Blue Diamond Trading Company.  I prefer super thick rings as they don’t make the rope bend sharp like classic thin rigging rings or carabiners.  That greatly extends the life of your rope and cuts down on the likelihood of rope breaks when using natural fiber rope.

Shibari Study has a free video set on uplines available here.
