A sport not too unlike an event shown at the circus, slacklining is becoming increasingly popular. Whether just hanging out with friends and attempting to show off (though, in most cases, this probably ends in mortification), getting serious in competition or amping up the danger by hanging your nylon webbing between two cliffs, slackliners are beginning to pop up all over the place.
Unfortunately, the documentation of the acrobatic sport in the Flickr Creative Commons is not as abundant. Nevertheless, sit back, relax and prepare to take a visual journey—albeit a brief one—through Slacklining, ‘Round the World.
If you like our ‘Round the World series, you might enjoy some of the previous themes: spelunking, trekking, water skiing, mountain biking, sand, gliding, kayaking, climbing, buses, skateboarding, surfin’, doorways, hats, boating, gas stations, bicycles, windows, truckin’, glasses, mohawks, beer, authorities, fanny packs, Jesus, swimming, sweaters, mustaches, stairs, chess, foods, silhouettes, donkeys, outhouses, and cemeteries.
