Once you can do a trick, you have SENT.  If you can do it almost every time you have it WIRED.
 If you can do it every time, always you have it DIALED.
S1 - Can do it right away, a first-time move.  beginner's start here.
S2 - Can do within several tries.  Good tricks to learn your first or second session.
S3 - Can do after a session or two of work.  Hard for the first try.
S4 - Can do after a few sessions or generally pick-up quite fast if adept at slacklining.
S5 - Can do quickly if advanced, otherwise takes a while.
S6 - Hard for most advanced slackers.  Really takes a while for a good slacker to pick up.
S7 - Not many people can do it, but most can learn if advanced.
S8 - Sick.  Rarely seen, rarely done.  Talked about.
S9 - Only a couple people can do it, many work at it for a long time.
S10 - Only one person can do it. (Becomes S9 if repeated.)
S11 - Not done yet. (Becomes S10 if SENT!)

   "I am working on an urban slacking (for beginners) book
right now with handdrawn pics...  Um.. what else, Oh yeah i
landed 5 180's in a row the other day, just to see how many
i could do, and my most consecutive jumps in a row on a
line is 19... going up, down, up, down, no hessitation...  I am
working on the back to back 360's but that shit is HARd,
and Scary...

...I [also] have a bunch of tricks that just aren't even listed...
Such as Multiple line tricks,transfer tricks, from a higher
line to a lower line, Tree stalls (jump off the slackline put
both feet on the treee you are anchored two, and either
come back on the line with no trick,with a 180, a 360,a 540
and even, as i hope todo, a backflip off the tree onto the

Gravity Highline Team would like to congratulate Damian, one of
our own, on a succesful send of the classic lost arrow highline
in Yosemite.  I know he has wanted this for some time, and we
couldn't be more proud.  Here is a link to Damian's home video
clips of his effort.  Great Job, you have certainly joined a select
group by this achievement.
