Gibbon Travelline Review

Setup
With a single ratchet tightening system, the Gibbon Travelline is very easy to setup and take down in a short amount of time by virtually anyone. The Travelline spans up to 49 feet and can be setup relatively low to the ground for beginners.

Versatility
The Travelline is a line for beginners and more advanced aerial trickliners that plan to take their tricks on the road. Similar in feel to the Gibbon Jibline and Gibbon Surfline, the Travelline has a nice bounce and recoil allowing the advanced aerialist to attract a crowd. The Travelline does offer a nice stretch for those that prefer to practice static balance postures on the line, although we still prefer tubular webbing for this purpose.

Quality
The Travelline is made of thin stretchy webbing tightened by a quality ratchet system. Unfortunately with 2" ratchet tightening systems the tendency is for the webbing to rub on the edges of the ratchet and fray over time, and we have noticed that the Travelline's especially thin webbing is more prone to fray.

Value
Overall the Travelline has limited value as it is mainly an aerial line that is likely to shred with limited use. Although we love this line, beginners and aerialists alike would be better served by the Gibbon Surfline (or the Gibbon Jibline for something more portable). We recommend the [[Primitive Rig for anyone looking for a portable slackline with significantly more overall value.
