My webbing for my slackline is getting rather dirty. What is the best way of cleaning the webbing without weakening or damaging it? Thanks.

Just soak it in your tub with a mild soap and let it dry before you set it back up. :)

stretch it up loosely 10 feet at a time or so, make sure it is loose so the fibers won't trap any particles. Then use a small, low power hand held vaccuum like a dirt devil. This works best for dry desert dust, like i get here.
if it is not just a fine dust, use the wash method.
If it is very soiled, like stained and would require abrasives to get the stuff off, consider replacing the webbing.

What about for brown embedded mud? We don't HAVE dust up here! ;)
I usually fill my tub and swish it around for a bit, then hang it up to dry. I don't know if it does a good job or not, but heck, it soothes my mind. I haven't broken any of MY webbing yet. ;)
