3 inches bigger than the classic ratchet, the GOLIATH ratchet will be perfect to rig your freestyle webbing (trickline or jumpline as we said it in the slackline jargon)
Mixing speed and efficiency, the GOLIATH ratchet can tension 20m long webbing (1 or 2 inch width).
Then, to tighten 30m long you will need two Goliath ratchet, one at each endpoint.
Technical specifications
- Working Load Limit (WLL) : 10kN
- Breaking Load Limit (BLL) : 50kN
- Weight : 1.75kg
- we advise a maximum length of your webbing :
With 1 Goliath : 20m
With 2 Goliath : 30m
Using advices
-
Sold with a small sling for the ratchet. Length 20cm
- To anchor the ratchet you will need a shackle (12mm mini) and a sling (1T mini)
- Sold with 3m of rope/webbing to have a safe setup : back-up
- Regarding the practice of freestyle, you have to also pay attention to one specific point : "the cycling failure". Do not use any zicral/aluminium component (carabiner) into your se-tup. Always back-up your set-up !
- Informations about "fatigue failure"
Informations about back-up, installation safety - Be careful, practice with clean shoes (no rocks or mud) and no trousers with rivets (jeans), it can damage the webbing.

- Protect both trees and webbing with our Tree Protections. It will expend the life expectancy of your equipment.
- Store you webbing dry and clean, away from UV. It will expand the life of your equipment.
- To also protect your gear, especially the Goliath ratchet, use a Soft Release System aka Lasso. It also allows to release softly the tension.

- To derig your setup easily, and enhance the life of the ratchet, the lasso can be helpful
Responsibility
Slacklining and more particularly Highline (in the void, secured by a harness) are sports practices that have no normative or regulatory framework for the manufacture of the material as well as for its installation.
This is why we do not guarantee our own equipment for highline use.
Our products are tested within our company and independent laboratories (mentioned on the product page) via a process that evolves with practice.
These resistance tests have no legal value, they aim to ensure the safety, resistance and comfort of use of our equipment - in the context of our practice.
It is the responsibility of the practitioner to choose the equipment with the appropriate resistance and to have the necessary experience to adapt the installation to his practice.
And to use appropriate equipment to secure oneself if necessary, such as PPE equipment (climbing gear, ropes, etc.).
Generalities
- Do not install your slackline across a path, trail or place of passage
- Do not install your slackline more than 2m from the ground without securing yourself with PPE equipment
- Practice on grassy or cushioned ground free of any protruding objects or objects that could cause injury
- Do a back up = secure your tension system
- Never use a ratchet for highline practice
- Never install your slackline on urban furniture (benches, lampposts, barriers, etc.)
Safety regarding highlining
It is the responsibility of the practitioner to use appropriate equipment to secure oneself if necessary, such as PPE (climbing equipment, ropes, etc.).
In NO CASE is this equipment designed to secure itself. For the lifeline - called backup - we advise to use only PPE standard material (climbing material, ropes, etc).
Unless expressly mentioned, no slackline element can be considered as PPE (personal protective equipment) for sports and leisure activities
NEVER USE SLACKLINE MATERIAL TO SECURE YOURSELF / TIE YOURSELF DOWN. IT IS NOT CLIMBING EQUIPMENT, NOR IS IT EPI STANDARD EQUIPMENT.
