In a capstan model the tight side tension is on the side which is being pulled against the direction of the angular velocity this is usually denoted as T1.
Slack side tension is denoted as T2
equation relating the two:
T1/T2 = eu0
0=theta, u=mew

Is it easier to tight-rope walk or slack-rope walk?
Slack-rope walk. A rope will be under tension and tight if the two ends are elevated so there is no slack, hence a tight-rope. However, leaving the rope unsuspended will result in a slack rope which will not move under foot and can be walked on easily, as the rope is supported by the ground that also offers support to the feet.
