X-Wing is the Highline Freestyle Setup for the next generation of tricks that you haven't even thought of by now. It provides the most stretch and the slowest bounce in the market, so you get lots of extra time for your multi-axis rotations to feet. The thick weave plus the tight and round trickzone are gentle to your skin without ever tacoing or sliding. With 22 kN MBS plus a robust TypeX sewing to a stronger backup webbing it provides plenty of safety margin. As regular backup Pulsar is connected, for ultimate performance rigs and comps there's also the option for Dyneemite PRO as a backup.

Bouncy X-Wing Mainline: The stretch of nearly 24% at 5kN tension makes bouncing on this webbing deeper and slower than on any other webbing in the market. This provides you with all the time needed for your multi-axis rotations and still gives you that extra bit of time to stick them to feet.

22 kN MBS: Despite its unseen performance X-Wing doesn't compromise on your safety. We made it an integral part of the X-Wing development instead. Our efforts paid off: German engineering makes now possible what seemed impossible before - maximizing freestyle performance and the breaking strength, so you can session hard without worrying about mainline failures.

Power Bounce Construction: Until now it was believed that tubular nylon webbings are the only way to go for manufacturing high performance freestyle webbings, even if they come with severe downsides like tacoing, sharp edges and extreme fragility. This is finally over! Due to the engineering efforts we put into X-Wing, this webbing doesn't taco (fold), coming in 19mm width it's thicker and therefore much more comfy to grab at the trickzone, plus its robust flat weave makes it significantly more sturdy and resiliant to external influences like UV and abrasion compared to wider webbings at its class. All of that while performing on a never seen level!

TrickZone: Protect your webbing from abrasion in the highly played areas - the trick zone used for the X-Wing setup provides a thick and non-slipping additional layer that can be adjusted to the correct position. It also makes the line wider, thicker and the edges rounder, so playing the webbing becomes a soft and comfy pleasure in this zone.

Two Backup Options: You can choose between Pulsar and Dyneemite PRO as a backup webbing.

Pulsar is our robust, lightweight and affordable polyester backup webbing. It's about 15% lighter than X-Wing, so combining these two creates a setup with low swinging mass that enables you to stick rotational tricks like "Allmighty" and "Darth Vader" with ease.
Dyneemite PRO is the lightest, yet strongest webbing in the market. With a weight of only 22g/m it reduces the swinging weight of the backup loops to the absolute thinkable minimum, which is perfect for the most progressive freestylers on the planet to create the tricks never seen before. It's also the ideal option for long combos and freestyle competitions where *to feet* absolutely matters. P.S.: for the Dyneemite PRO option we recommend to make it a 100m piece with 2 sewn end loops and a detachable DLV center connection to your X-Wing, so you can also use it as a main webbing in a big line when needed ;)

Center Sewn Connection: Sewing the backup to the main webbing with a strong connection in the center adds an important additional safety layer to your rig. In the case of a mainline failure this technique significantly reduces the backup fall height, since only half of the backup loops engage. While the intact half of the main webbing can still provide bounce and therefore dampens the peak forces, a backup fall becomes much safer compared to a non-connected rig. Of course you should always inspect your rig regularly for potential weak spots like abrasion, but in case of a mainline failure still happening, this will reduce the impact forces on the anchors and your body.

TypeX is a sewn connection that firmly connects main and backup webbing with a robust stitch. It's easy to produce, extremely lightweight and cheap. We connect X-Wing at the 25m mark from the static side, so the stitching doesn't get in the way of the TrickZone.
DuraLaVida is an extremely strong and secure connection that allows you to interchange your backup. This is especially helpful if you opt for the more expensive Dyneemite PRO backup: Once you retire your main webbing after it's played out, simply get a new main webbing and keep using your backup! We sew the DLV at the 25m mark from the static side, so the connection doesn't get in the way of the TrickZone. We recommend the Maillon Rapide 7mm quicklinks to connect the DuraLaVida loops for a lightweight, yet strong and secure connection.

NFC loops for lifetime tracking: All raed highline webbings come with a NFC loop attached that allows you to track the use of this webbing without effort. Learn more about raed NFC loops.

Attention! This is some ultralight high performance freestyle webbing, designed to be used by highly skilled athletes and in freestyle competitions. The ultra lightweight construction of this setup reduces the lifetime of this setup to 6 months in use. It's also highly recommended to constrain intense use like freestyling and frequent leashfalling to the TrickZone area of the setup to minimize possible abrasion damage to the webbing. If you're looking for a long term freestyle permarig that you wanna shred on a daily basis, we highly recommend to choose a stronger setup, like our famous MOTM freestyle setup. The use of X-Wing in a highline without a firmly sewn backup can put you at increased risk of a backup shockload, so we highly recommend the suggested configuration with a TypeX / DLV center connection between main webbing and backup webbing!

Always make sure to fully read and understand the user manual before using highline gear: raed webbing manual PDF

Out of date and just plain not good instruction
Format: Kindle
This has problems that I have seen from many non-educators when they write an instructional book (so I hope she is not an actual educator). The book makes leaps of faith of knowledge and has a belief that they have shown you well enough to do one thing (which it doesn't) and that you can extrapulate from that knowledge to do something completely different. They makes these leaps of faith in the first couple hours, when people are just getting used to coding in this language. This book also fails to even tell you what different parts of the code are doing, so that you can make those leaps of knowledge. I also find this happens a lot when people write coding books. They know how to code, so they figure if they just show you parts of a code you will figure out why it did what it did, instead of explaining to you what different parts of code actually do when you put them together. I made it almost through hour two before I gave up trying to decipher all the nonsense that was written in this book. In hour two they have you make a sphere, but never actually show you how to make the sphere, but then start telling you how to create dialog for the sphere. Apparently in hour 1, even though it was never explained, I was supposed to understand how to make a lava field with objects.

Must-read book for everyone (not just Ai proponents)
Format: Paperback
I realize I say this about every AI book I read, but this one really is the best (so far), and most important in my view."Atlas of AI" by Kate Crawford is a well-researched work that should appeal to AI enthusiasts and opponents alike; not because it flatters either side, but because it challenges both to think beyond the usual narratives. Whether you see Ai as a revolutionary tool for progress or a dystopian force of unchecked power, there’s no denying that it it is shaped by real-world systems of labor, industry, and politics.This book makes it clear: Ai is not just about algorithms and efficiency. It is about power: who wields it, who profits from it, and who is left to bear its costs. For those who celebrate Ai’s potential (like me), Atlas of AI offers a sobering look at the material and ethical realities behind the inertia and hype.For those who critique AI as a damaging or dystopian force, the book provides a well-researched (eye-opening) foundation for those concerns.What makes it especially compelling is that it doesn’t fall into the trap of alarmism OR blind optimism. Instead, Crawford takes us on a deep, methodical journey through the infrastructures that sustain artificial intelligence, revealing the hidden costs (labor, environmental, political) that come with EVERY so-called innovation.**Deconstructing the Myths of AI**One of the book’s greatest strengths is its ability to cut through the persistent myths surrounding artificial intelligence. Crawford systematically dismantles the notion that AI is a purely immaterial, frictionless technology. She examines the vast mining operations necessary to produce hardware, the exploitative labor practices behind data annotation, and the enormous energy demands of AI training model. Ai, in her analysis, is not an autonomous or inevitable force—it is an industrial system deeply intertwined with capitalism, surveillance, and environmental degradation (much of her research applies to Big Tech, and not just Ai). This perspective is crucial in an era where Ai is often presented as a revolutionary technology that exists outside of history and politics.Crawford makes it clear that Ai is not “just math” but a political tool wielded by those in power, often reinforcing existing inequalities. The Ethics of Extraction and Control: One of Crawford's most compelling arguments is the framing of AI as an extractive industry: one that harvests resources, labor, and data in much the same way as colonial enterprises have in the past.The book traces how Ai development is dependent on resource-intensive practices, from lithium mining for hardware to the invisible armies of low-wage workers tasked with cleaning and labeling data. Crawford argues Ai is a system built on the extraction of value from the most vulnerable populations, whether they be gig workers, Amazon's "Mechanical Turk" laborers, or the communities living in the shadow of server farms that consume enormous amounts of water and energy.Crawfors cites numerous examples of how corporations like Google and Amazon, and even the government, skirt the system to save on taxes, while promising better futures to the resource-rich communities they exploit. The theme of extraction extends beyond the physical to the digital realm.Crawford shows how personal data is commodified under the guise of “training AI,” reinforcing the asymmetrical relationship between those who generate data and those who profit from it.The book’s critique aligns with broader concerns about surveillance capitalism, demonstrating how Ai is often wielded as a means of control rather than liberation. (I learned some sad truths about local community policing and Ai) AI and the Politics of Classification Crawford explores how classification systems, often presented as objective/neutral, are deeply embedded with biases. Ai systems are trained on datasets shaped by human prejudices, yet are frequently deployed as infallible arbiters of truth. Crawford examines how facial recognition, predictive policing, and automated hiring systems encode and reinforce racial, gendered, and socioeconomic biases, often amplifying systemic discrimination. This analysis is particularly relevant in today’s discussions on AI ethics. Crawford’s work underscores that Ai bias is not simply a technical glitch to be fixed, but rather a feature of the broader political and economic structures that Ai is designed to serve. A Necessary and Timely Intervention For those who have followed debates on Ai ethics, surveillance capitalism, and data justice, Atlas of AI provides a well-researched and compelling synthesis of these concerns, free from the noise we commonly hear on social media outlets. It is particularly valuable in challenging the mainstream, corporate-driven narratives that portray Ai as an inevitable and benign technological force. Crawford’s writing is insightful, well-documented, and accessible, making complex ideas understandable without sacrificing depth. While the book is critical in tone, it does not merely scold Ai developers; rather, it offers a crucial intervention in ongoing discussions about how Ai is developed, deployed, and governed.The book had a surprisingly anti-capitalist/anti-technocratic tone, that inspired me to continue learning/aligning under the anti-fascist flag so many of us wield. For artists, researchers, and technologists (especially those working at the intersection of Ai and creative expression) Atlas of Ai serves as a stark and vital reminder that technology is never neutral. It invites us to think critically about the systems we engage with and the ethical implications of our participation in Ai-driven ecosystems (and really, all major technologies). Atlas of AI is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the broader implications of artificial intelligence beyond the hype. It moves beyond discussions of algorithms and model accuracy to examine the power structures that shape Ai’s impact on society. By reframing AI as a material and political phenomenon rather than a disembodied technological marvel, Crawford provides a necessary course-correction to the dominant narratives surrounding Ai. This book is not just for AI skeptics but for anyone who wants to engage in a deeper, more nuanced conversation about the technology shaping our present and future. If we are to meaningfully confront the challenges AI presents, we need more books that challenge us to think critically, demand accountability, and advocate for more just and equitable technological futures. For those of us who engage with AI,whether as artists, researchers, developers, or critics, Atlas of AI should serve as a wake-up call. Too often, Ai artists defend the technology out of pride or personal investment, dismissing valid ethical concerns as fear-mongering. On the other side, anti-AI voices often resist engagement with nuance, preferring to frame Ai as an existential threat rather than a tool shaped by human systems of power. Both of these stances miss the point. Crawford makes it clear that the real battle isn’t Ai vs. artists or progress vs. tradition, it’s about who controls the technology, who benefits from it, and who is left to suffer the consequences. If we are serious about the future of art, technology, and creative autonomy, we must move beyond our egos and engage critically with the systems that shape Ai. This book gives us all a foundation to unify under, not in opposition to Ai itself, but in opposition to the unchecked power structures that exploit it and us.
