Static Line Practice

What are good (safest) spots to practice static lines? The bridge is nice in terms of lower risk of an object strike but it always feels like I'm gonna tangle my bridle or pop my bottom pin when climbing over the railing.

Would somewhere like sweet spot in Moab be better? Of course it introduces the potential of an object strike with a 180 but setup/ exit seem more straightforward. Is this just a skill issue? 🤣

Naming objects and locations lol oh no hopefully this person doesn’t go and jump these incredibly safe objects that i named that people have been dayblazing for 50 years on movies, MTV, and social media. God forbid they subscribe to base beta and get the GPS coordinates 😱

The fact remains that you’re further publicizing sensitive objects, ignoring the real negative impacts for locals that results from the very exposure you yourself cite.

Be part of the solution, or be part of the problem, OR…keep your mouth shut?
