im sorry if this has been done before i looked for like an hour but couldnt find this.

on the 3:1 pulley system how do you tie the static rope off? i mean i understand how to tighten it using the static rope but the instructions on slacklineexpress.com are saying to tie it off which makes sense but it doesnt say how... any suggestions?

I use a mini traxion or a wall hauler in the system.

if its long enough, wrap it around the tree (or whatever) a few times. this'll keep it from slipping. then tie the end somewhere using a mule knot or hitch or whatever its called. this knot can be untied by pulling on the end.
