Chattanooga Slackpark

Chattanooga Slackpark Until recently slacklining was not allowed in City Parks in Chattanooga. Now we're working on establishing the first "Chattanooga Slackpark."

After significant struggle with the city, we've reversed this ruling, and now everyone can slackline. We need your support to make this happen. Please sign our petition here. The slackpark will be a place for slacklining enthusiasts and beginners alike to gather to practice, share ideas and teach the art of balance in an urban setting. The park will have hopefully 2 sets of concrete anchors to whi

ch guests can attach their own slacklines. The slackpark will be the site of organized meet-ups, practices, and competitions, yes, we plan on having competitions. First we are working on one place but envision a future where slacklining athletes will be allowed to set up in numerous city parks. The rules for setting up slacklines in city parks are currently (but we're also working to revise these) :

It shall be the policy of the Parks Department to permit the temporary (less than 18 hours) installation of slacklines and hammocks with the following provisions:
1. Anchor Points: Materials may include nylon strapping with a minimum width of two (2) inches or rope larger than one inch. No metal wire shall be used.
2. No tree less than twelve (12) inches in diameter may be used for the installation.
3. Attachment cannot be to any light fixtures, fences, bridge components, buildings or structures, park amenities including benches, tables, play equipment, grills, etc.
4. The units may not be installed preventing regular circulation routes of the general public.
5. Anchor points must be removed within 18 hours of installation.
6. The units must not be left unattended for any length of time.

Ever been kicked out of a Chattanooga city park for slacklining?
We are superlatively happy to inform everyone that the rule preventing us from setting up lines in the parks has been reviewed and revised! You are now free to attach slacklines and hammocks to trees with a minimum diameter of 12 inches in any city park!
Here is the complete list of regulations:
It shall be the policy of the Parks Department to permit the temporary (less than 18 hours) installation of slacklines and hammocks with the following provisions:
1. Anchor Points: Materials may include nylon strapping with a minimum width of two (2) inches or rope larger than one inch. No metal wire shall be used.
2. No tree less than twelve (12) inches in diameter may be used for the installation.
3. Attachment cannot be to any light fixtures, fences, bridge components, buildings or structures, park amenities including benches, tables, play equipment, grills, etc.
4. The units may not be installed preventing regular circulation routes of the general public.
5. Anchor points must be removed within 18 hours of installation.
6. The units must not be left unattended for any length of time.
