Qui sommes nous ? About ?


All about balance. Tout est une question d'équilibre.
Cette phrase illustre Slack depuis ses débuts en 2005.
Alors que personne n’avait entendu parler de sangle molle, Damien Mercier décida de pousser le slackline vers les projecteurs en créant la marque Slack et le site www.slack.fr, ainsi que la boutique en ligne de slackline. Vous êtes ici sur notre blog.

Working Hard!

I have been working like hell two days in a row. That was nice and effective. I totally finished the news sets of slack and ordered them. Monday one of my supplier will call in order to check all the technical details. I hope there is none!
The last days have been peculiar. I was moody even if everything was going better. For example, I received a mail from a Swedish company which want to become my exclusive distributor. Business is somehow strange since I contacted them nearly 5 months before.
One of my partner crossed a huge gap in Norway. He did a slack walk above a 1000 meters cliffs. I am looking forward to see it.

Tomorrow, I must drive to a recreation center for a slack show. It's far better than staying inside doing computer stuff.

New kit and final label

Today, I finished three labels. Each of them had to match my next slack generation. I designed two new systems and improved the Easy as long as the Advanced.
I still don't know what will be the name of the new comers. Maybe the "Primitiv" and the "Click"...
The tubular webbing will pass the EN 565 ( European Standardization for Mountaineering Equipment: Tape) moreover it might pass the EN 566 (Mountaineering Equipment : Sling) since it's both a tape and a half sling.
I am hoping to be able to sell the "Primitiv" under 50,00€ (shipping and taxes included). It depends the cost of the EN testing.
